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.

James Doha’s Death

Upon hearing Neo's words, he stepped forward and raised his hand.

SLAP!

He slapped the boy's face.

The others nearly fainted when they saw that.

"Boss?" Neo's eyes turned wide as he felt like smacking this icy cold boss of his. Didn't he know some common sense that they shouldn't hit children?

They thought that Kevin would try to console the boy, but he just immediately slapped the boy's face just like that. Did he think James was the same as him? Kevin think better after being hit by Patrick, but would it apply to James?

However, James did stop crying. His eyes were red and they widened as he looked at Kevin in disbelief.

In this world, these two were the only people he allowed to get close with him aside from his family members. He couldn't believe that Kevin had just slapped him.

"W-w-why?"

"Do you think that crying can solve the problem?"

"B-but!"
