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 Trip
Mike nodded his head faintly when he heard what Misae had told Kanae. They had returned back to the school a few days ago, but their Boss still seemed irritated because Kanae was not here. At that point, there was nothing he could do but wait.
"Have you finished your matter, Kanae?" Neo asked curiously.
Kanae nodded her head. "For the time being, there's nothing else I have to do aside from going to school."
Her mind drifted back to what Master Rudy told her, but she erased the thoughts as fast as possible. Jay would not like it if she tried to tell him about this matter as the Souhon Clan seemed to want to conceal their problems completely.
"That's good. It's just a small business meeting, but with you around, it's going to be fun," Neo smirked.
"Where are we going?"
"We're going to the beach in the southeast. There are a lot of resorts there and you can have fun at the beach."
"…" Are we going on a holiday trip or a business trip?
