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.

Not a Plant in a Greenhouse
Aida Core Family Mansion
Vena was looking towards the report in front of her with a dark expression. It has been several days since she issued the order about the Kara Company. By now, she was facing a different problem. Numerous companies that previously belonged to her went bankrupt overnight.
Some of them reported that they didn't pay the necessary tax to the clan.
Some of them reported that they paid but someone embezzled the money, making the clan furious.
The rest have some other problems that crop up suddenly.
"Miss, there's a new report about this company too," the assistant said while trembling. She didn't dare to speak loud in fear Vena lashed out.
In truth, Vena rarely lashed out to anyone because of her even temper. However, once she was pissed off, the others wouldn't be able to live in peace either. Her way of doing things would make them thought of her as a little devil more than anything else.
