Under the Veil of Night
In the City of Crime, one law stands above them all: Only the strongest can live. Fighting is normal, extortion is common, and death is inevitable. Born into a wealthy family yet forced to live in poverty, Kanae Nali vowed to become strong enough to take back what rightfully belonged to her—even if it meant that she had to face the consequences and brave the dangers lurking in every corner. Yet on the outside, just like her mysterious peers, she was no different from the other high school students living their lives to the fullest. “Under the ray of light, my ability will only make me die faster. Under the veil of night, my ability allows me to survive longer.” ____ Story set in fictional city. Any similarities with real world's event is purely coincidence.

"What kind of man raises his hand towards a girl?"
The student was stunned to find his fist caught by another student so easily. He might not be a renowned fighter, but he was quite good compared to others in his class. Although his standard was still lacking before those few geniuses, he had confidence in his martial arts. Who was this boy?
Tommy was pissed off right now. If he was slower just by one second, Misae would be hit. Considering the power that he felt from the punch, he knew that Misae might be hospitalized if she got hit. That woman was simply too weak to suffer any kind of wound.
"Using martial arts against a powerless woman, you have truly opened my eyes to how people in this society handle things nowadays," Tommy said coldly. He pushed the student away with the hand that was still wrapped around the other's fist.
The student stumbled back and nearly fell if not for his friends' support. His eyes looked towards Tommy warily.
