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.

Second Hearing of Nali Family
As the fight continues, the other businesses were struggling to keep their company open. Some of the owners who lived near the border have to close down their small shop in fear of getting involved. Slowly, the fight started to move back to Merion Clan's territory, allowing more people to start their business once again.
For Laura, it was also the time for the second hearing. Since the street has become safer, the elders decided to hold the second hearing pretty soon. The two of them barely able to do anything else before they were called back to the core family mansion. Thankfully, it was already nearing the end of March, making the temperature rather warm.
"Be careful, Laura," Kanae warned as she watched her sister got out of the car.
Laura nodded her head. "Don't worry, Sis. You just have to wait for the news of my victory."
"I know you will win."
