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.

Taking Over
Governor's Hall
"Sir, that's all we have in hand for the activity," one of the officials raised his head and gave the report of what they had prepared.
The governor was sitting in his place as he listened listlessly. No matter which angle he saw this, he still couldn't think of it as a good plan because of the current condition of this city. It was simply impossible for him to think that it was good because they couldn't possibly show the rubbles.
Many of them were still over there, waiting to be cleaned up. It had disrupted the traffic jam heavily. Not to mention, the culprit was still out there, waiting until he could move freely and attack them once more.
"Review the schedule once more. I don't want to see any loopholes," the governor ordered.
