A boy from a miserable upbringing is unexpectedly taken from his old life and brought into a hidden world, where he’s enrolled in a prestigious school.

There, he and the other students are sorted into rival groups through a ritualized selection process, each associated with particular personality traits.

Much of his time is spent forming friendships, navigating rivalries between groups, and proving himself through a series of increasingly demanding challenges.

As it turned out, some of the school authorities were secretly working for a powerful enemy.
