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.

Aida Family Downfall
Aida Family Mansion
Vena's father, the current head of Aida Family, was looking towards the report with a solemn expression. He had heard about what happened to the Nali Family before, but he didn't think that his family would be implicated this big. Many important branch family heads died in that one incident, sending him into a larger despair because of that.
After he called Ferdinand to tell about Vena's involvement in the matter of the letter, that woman disappeared. He was saddened by the sudden news, but there was nothing that he could do. The report from the businesses that he got from Vena showed the numerous lost that they had for the last several months.
They were simply enormous.
