Laki sa hirap si Xy at dahil doon isa lang ang gusto niya sa buhay: Ang yumaman at magkaroon ng maginhawang buhay. Kaya nang biglang dumating sa harap niya ang isang mayamang lalaking nagpakilalang ama niya ay pumayag agad ito sa gusto niyang gawin upang pamanahan siya: Ang makapagtapos siya sa Mainland Private High School bilang valedictorian. Walang reklamong ginawa ni Xy ang gusto ng ama at agad na hinarap ang hamon. Ngunit ang inaakala niyang madaling gawain ay naging isang suntok sa buwan nang ma-diskubre ang madilim na sistema ng eskwelahang pinasok niya. Ang inaakalang simpleng pag-aaral ay nahantong sa pagdiskubre sa lihim ng mga kapwa estudyante at propesor, at pag-ungkat sa mga madidilim na sikreto ng institusyong pinasok niya. Akala ni Xy ay lumabo na ang tyansa niyang maging valedictorian pero nagbago ito nang madiskubre niya ang sikreto ng kaniyang gwapo at matalinong propesor na si Havoc Hidalgo. Makakayanan kaya ni Xy harapin ang hamon ng misteryosong eskwelahan sa tulong ng propesor o matatagpuan niya ang sarili pabalik sa buhay ng kahirapan? ₱₱₱ TRIGGER WARNINGS AHEAD.
