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.

The Truth about the Letter from the Government Part 2
Shiro's Clinic
"Have you calmed down, Tom?" Shiro asked to the pale looking boy on the bed.
Tommy nodded his head. He looked towards the drug on the side. "Do you know what kind of drug is that?"
"I don't know for sure right now. The amount you give to me will be enough for me to research for quite some time. When I have the answer, I'll tell you about that," Shiro answered calmly.
"Thank you," Tommy picked up the glass of water that Shiro gave to him. He drank the water silently as his thought was still filled with what happened to his mother.
The door suddenly opened. Kanae and Jason stormed in.
"How's Tommy?"
"Is he alright?"
"Calm down you two," Shiro rolled his eyes. "Tommy is fine. He's resting on the bed."
"That's good," Jason sighed in relief. He relaxed his body and immediately fell to the floor due to the lack of strength on his feet.
