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.

Jason's Residence
To say that the news didn't bring any ripples would be a lie. The media was bombarding the Wells Family's residence like there was no tomorrow. However, the family head didn't appear. He stayed inside the shadow, without any hint whatsoever that he would come out to resolve the situation.
On the other hand, Ivan was taking the matter directly by proclaiming that he would be taking over the family. He boasted that the family matter would be handed directly into his hand.
"Your cousin is quite something, Brother Jason," Laura Nali, Kanae's little sister, was looking at the news report with disgust. The cousin of Jason was truly too much in his action.
"Ivan always wants the position of family head that I hold for years. There's nothing wrong with him trying to take it back by using numerous schemes," on the contrary, Jason's reply was rather mild.
