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.

Jon's Mansion
In this place, a completely different incident has occurred.
Vena was making her way to the mansion furiously. She heard the news about Jon and Sheila's marriage a few hours ago. Because of the matter with the prison break a few days ago, she was busy taking care of the business that got involved with the recent attack. It never crossed her mind that Jon would get married with someone else so quick, especially with the other party being a widow.
"Jon, come out!" Vena yelled as she walked inside the mansion. The guards were helpless as they tucked their tail behind their back. Facing this young woman, no one dared to do anything.
From one of the rooms, the shirtless Jon walked out. His red face and unfocused eyes showed that he was still rather drunk. "What is it my dear sister? Do you want to congratulate me for my second marriage?"
