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.

Laura was smiling happily at the report that she got from the secretary. The decision to convert the mansion into a prestigious hotel was very welcomed by the wealthy. They had always heard about the beautiful environment surrounding the mansion, so they wanted very much to book a stay despite the expensive prices that Laura had indicated.
It was far more expensive than that of a normal hotel of this class, but no one really complained. Aside from the fact that it had beautiful scenery, it was also a historical place because generation of the Nali Family Head grew up and passed away there. Laura placed the photos of the past Nali Family Heads in the hall, allowing everyone to see them clearly.
"With this, the family's profit is going to increase," Laura grinned.
Kanae rolled her eyes. "You're also doing a favor to the media. They are all pestering you for more news every single minute."
