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.

Business Party
In the end, Kanae tied her hair partially to the back. She didn't want to make difficult hairstyle since it would be hard to take care of it once she went back home. Besides, this was only a business party. There was no need for her to dress so extravagantly.
The dress Laura picked for her was a red long sleeves dress. It was quite big at the lower part, making her able to walk easier.
"You're the representative of our company, Sis. Don't look so bad," Laura laughed.
Kanae scrutinize Laura's appearance too. The latter was using light pink makeup, which suited her perfectly. She was wearing light yellow dress with v neck and short sleeve.
"Admit it, Sis, I'm much prettier than you," Laura said smugly.
"Oh? Who is the one praising me over and over again before?" Kanae replied with a smile on her face, "How shameless of you to change your opinion so suddenly like that."
"I have the best tutor who teaches me that."
