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.

Take Care of Yourself
The grand elder humped and turned to look at Kanae. "Even though so, you shouldn't have meddled like that, Kanae."
"Ah, you found out?" Kanae's eyes widened, and she smiled wryly. "Did I not do a good job?"
"You did, but your aura is completely different from Laura's," the grand elder tapped the table before him. "Someone who has been active in Black Street is obviously different from someone who lives in peace."
Kanae smiled calmly. This particular elder knew about her activity at night since he always watched over her. Even though he didn't offer her any help, he still didn't leave her alone to die. After all, he wished to see the youngsters climbing their own way up and not just relying on their lineage.
"I don't want them to make fun of my sister, that's why I decided to do this."
"With Laura's personality, I doubt they're going to be successful."
