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.

Role in the Mission
The location for the gathering happened to be in a secluded island not far from the mainland. Although the location provided them with many advantages from attack, it was also a dangerous place. If they didn't stay careful enough, this might become their grave.
This particular island has a lot of coral and rocks under the water. Their location was hidden, and no one would be able to find them if they were not familiar. In the past, numerous ships had crashed because of those rocks. Because of that, this was the best layer of defense against incoming ships.
Unless they knew the safe route, no one would be so stupid as to try getting close to the island except if they want to sink their ship.
Kevin arrived in the island using a large ship. It was easy for him to find the safe route as he has the map aside from the numerous people that worked for him. He looked towards the other two beside him. "What do you think about the people who accept our mission?"
