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.

"If it were you, I doubt you're going to show leniency to anyone who gets close to your fiancée either, Jason."
Jason tilted his head and saw Kevin with the other two. He shrugged. "I need a fiancée first if I want to experience it."
Mike smiled back in response while Kevin's gaze was on Sakura. He only came here because he heard the commotion and used the chance to have Neo sneak out from Jon's father's room. Although this event was rather unexpected, it kind of helped Neo disguise his whereabouts.
At this time, Kanae had joined the crowd on the second floor. She saw Kevin and the others and wondered what they were doing here. Looking towards Sakura and Amanda, her eyes turned icy.
'You reap what you sow.'
