"Bakit hindi sila namamatay?"
Avery Avellon is not-so-ordinary citizen who used to read an article and history about undead creatures, like ghosts, vampires and zombies.
Ang buong akala niya ay malabong mag-exist sa mundo ng mga tao ang ganoong klase ng nilalang. Ngunit, tila biglang nagbago ang ihip ng hangin, dahil simula nang maimbento ang vaccine para sa covid-19, na kung saan, imbis na mabawasan, maging ligtas ang sang-katauhan ay kabaliktaran ang naganap.
Nagkagulo-gulo ang mundo, mas lumala ang sakit, kumalat ang virus.
Maraming namatay, ngunit hindi maibabaon sa hukay. Bawat biktima ay nagmistulang mga bangkay na sabik sa laman loob ng mga taong nabubuhay. Hindi sila hayop, pero hindi na rin sila tao, hindi sila ordinaryo.
They are the living dead . . that starving for the one who's alive.
The Survival Begins. You must Run . . Kill . . And Survive.
But . . . Who must really run? If she could actually kill you in just a snap of her hand?
Maria Sigrid Ibarra has exceptional memory. She's already an achiever at such a young age, which is why she's sent to study at a prestigious Atlas University.
During her first stay at the university, she received an anonymous threat to leave the place immediately. But she firmly stayed until peculiar things quickly haunted her. And what she doesn't know, an unknown power inside her will become awake. This is the tale before Jill Morie.
*****
After joining Memo's exclusive Night Class, Sigrid found herself as one of the pioneer members of Memoire, a secret organization who seeks beings like her with unordinary abilities. But Sigrid's destiny is not solely to serve Memoire; the awakening of her power is just the beginning.
The mysterious child continues to baffle her as she unravels the truth. Until her near death, the Creator revealed to Sigrid the secret history of Peculiars, her real identity, and her ultimate mission: to stop evil at all costs.
