SPELL AND KILL (ENGLISH)
"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 Nationāhiding in the grasses and grains of District G to avoid the terrifying power of the Embassy and its ruthless Ambassador.
In a dystopian world that is controlled with surveillance, Synecdoche Rochet embarks on a mission to get back their rights on their district's valuable resourcesāthe grains. When she discovered her intellectual ability, she found herself drawn to the charismatic Giovanni, the long-lost Ambassador's privileged son together with other intelligent students, Ulap, Token, and Keithwarth. They found themselves being the tributes on the 2nd Maharlika Spelling TwistBeeātrapped in the Word Arena. An annually commemorated game where each district will represent one letter in the Alphabet, spell the given English words not verbally, but by beating other competitors who have letter tattoos on their arms. The rules are to Spell and beat them.
Within the competitor'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 competition? Is their life the price or the prize?
"Even the shortest word has the longest meaning."
