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.

"Master, have you known that she's an awakened from a long time ago?" the young man asked when they returned to their room. Master Rudy had personally cleaned up the room to avoid anyone hearing their conversation. There was rarely anyone who dared, but he didn't want to take the risk.
Master Rudy sat down on the chair. "You know about the awakened, right?"
"Yes, Master. They're people who already awaken their potential to the fullest."
"How well do you know about this so-called potential?"
The young man frowned. This potential was something that was hidden very deeply from the people in this city. Those who knew the information about them was very rare and scarce. Luckily or unluckily, he was part of those who knew about them.
