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.

Under the Veil of Night
Returning back to the residence, Kevin made sure that everything has progressed. Over the span two weeks and two days, the city was steadily growing. There was only some new sprout, but from the way things progressed, they might be able to grow nicely.
Days passed as they continued to work for the better future of the city.
"I never knew that Boss really wanted these projects," Neo sighed as he typed on the laptop. He had only managed to snatch a few of them, which resulted in another round of sleepless night to him. Even though Kevin also worked on them, that young man handed most of the work to him.
"He wants to make sure that Ryukalin Clan members can have normal work. The best way to do that is making us busy with a lot of projects," Mike smiled.
"You can say that, but most of the people here only have little knowledge of business matters. At most, they can only work in the mail room, being an errand boy, or the likes."
