July 23 Zodiac

私の婚約者は、命を救った口の不自由な女性に心を奪われ、ついには私との婚約を解消したいと言い出した。 私は善意で諭した。「桐島家に嫁ぐのは決して簡単なことではありません。一度よく考え直した方がいいと思います」 しかし、彼女は侮辱されたと感じ、自ら毒を仰いで命を絶った。 十年後、桐島誠司はグループの全権を掌握し、最初の行動として白川家を壊滅させ、さらに私の命を狙った。 「これが綾香のために、お前たちに償わせることだ」 気がつくと、私は23歳の誕生日パーティーの場に戻っていた。 桐島家の当主に何か望みはないかと聞かれ、私は微笑んで答えた。 「誠司さんと綾香さんは心から愛し合っています。どうかこの二人を祝福してあげてください」

"Our heart beats only with their permission." For as long as she can remember, the bookworm Synecdoche Rochet, 23, has lived a simple life in Maharlika Nation—hiding in the grasses and grains of District G to avoid the terrifying power of the Embassy and its ruthless Ambassador. In a dytopian world that is controlled and opressed, Synecdoche Rochet embarks on a mission to get back their rights on their district's valuable resources—the grains. When she discovered her intellectual ability, she found herself drawn to the charismatic Giovanni, the long-lost Ambassador's previleged son together with other intelligent students, Ulap, Token and Keithwarth. They found themselves being the tributes on the 2nd Maharlika Spelling TwistBee—trapped in the Word Arena. An annually commemorated survival game where each district will represent 1 letter in the Alphabet, spell the given English words not verbally, but by brutal killings of other competitors who have letter tattoos on their arms. The rules are to Spell and Kill. Within the killer's reach, the team-up of Synecdoche, Giovanni, Ulap, Token and Keithwarth isn't a coincidence, it's a conspiracy. What if Synecdoche's age will be reversed? Will they use their intelligence for vengeance? Will they compel love and trust to survive the battle royale? Is their life the price or the prize? "Even the shortest word has the longest meaning. Spell the words and kill with swords!"
