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.

"Just a bit more for today," the clear voice resounded in the rehab camp.
Shiro sighed as he tried to exert more strength on his legs. It had been some time since he had been rehabilitating in this camp, but he still couldn't bring enough strength to move his legs. Even though he was holding onto the railings on both sides, his legs' muscles were still not strong enough for him to walk by himself.
In the end, he was trembling all over as he was gripping the railing and tried to move his legs again.
A young woman in her early twenties was watching over Shiro with her clear brown eyes. Her long black hair was tied up into a nice bun as she held a stack of report from Shiro's progress over the past few months.
"Alright. That's enough for today."
