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.

Tommy's Competition (2)
"Mike is completely defeated in the face of love," Neo commented as he saw his friend sit next to Misae. Even from afar, he could guess that Mike was not a match when he was facing Misae.
Kevin glanced at them for a moment before averting his eyes again. He was standing in front of a vending machine as he thought about which drink Kanae would want.
Neo saw Kevin thinking hard and sighed to himself. "Kanae likes to drink juice if you don't want to pick the usual."
Kevin picked a melon juice before walking towards their seats. Seeing Kevin act like that, Neo didn't know whether he should cry or laugh. Although it was funny to see the usually cold leader become hesitant in front of the girl he liked, he knew that this might not last long.
With their different statuses in this city, the two of them wouldn't be able to stay together. That was the rule that has been in their clan for decades.
