In a world where everyone is obsessed with Five Elements Rotation card battles, featuring the elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, college student Lin Yi has never touched a card. His mother forbade it, warning him, “Don’t end up wasting your life on games like your father.” On his first day at college, a mysterious package arrives, containing fifty cards that shimmer with pure holy light: the **Light-attribute** deck, “Light of Creation (INITIAL LIGHT).”
Officially verified as real, the deck has no trace in the public’s memory. Its revolutionary **“Guardian” rules** challenge the very foundations of the game. When Lin Yi is forced to use it in an exhibition match and summons [Archangel of Judgment Uriel], wielding the divine power of “banishment,” he shocks the world and draws a desperate cry from his mother:
> **“Stop! You have no idea what it costs to awaken an angel!”**
What is the price?
Is it the lesson his father Lin Feng, once a champion who was condemned for “wasting his life on games” before mysteriously disappearing, paid for with his life?
Is it the fear concealed behind his mother’s youthful figure in a photograph from the top-secret “Genesis Project”?
Or is it the cold, inhuman **“gaze”** of the gray-clad figure in the depths of the alley? In the photo, his father, marked “Sample L,” is being swallowed by twisted shadows beyond a portal of light...
Light is hope, but it is also the source of disaster.
When the officials behind Five Elements Rotation loudly announce the return of the Light attribute, Lin Yi’s prototype deck becomes a priceless collector’s item, and every faction scrambles to get their hands on it.
Every card draw uncovers another piece of a buried family saga, bringing him closer to an ultimate secret capable of overturning the world. At the end of the light, will he find salvation, or an abyss of eternal “gazing”?
