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.

When Sakura finished, Ferdinand stood up. He was cold and indifferent, making the girl terribly afraid of him. "When did they know about that matter?"
"I think it was a few years ago," Sakura bit her lip. Ever since she knew about the significance of this matter, she never told others about it anymore. This was the reason she truly didn't know of anyone who possibly leaked the news about it in more recent times.
"You better hope that the one who leaked the news is among them," Ferdinand said coldly as he strode outside. "Don't let them out."
"Yes."
Inside the room, Sakura clutched onto her father's clothes. She knew the meaning of that threat very well. If the one who leaked the news wasn't one of the people she listed, she would be eliminated. Instead of getting hung up on an intel leak, it would be easier for them to quickly eliminate the source of the problem.
