[The day the world collapsed, I became the most shameful thief.
In the Pokémon League Tournament, I, Lin Zhou, lost for the 101st time.
When the sky tears apart, the law called "system" comes, and the tender battle turns into a life-and-death hunt.
I awakened the only hidden profession - Shadow Trainer. The ability is: From any trainer's shadow, forcefully contract their Pokémon.
In full view of everyone, I snatched his quasi-god Round Land Shark from the Champion Shadow.
The whole world is an enemy, and wanted orders are spread all over the world.
They called me the "shadow thief" and the "bond blasphemer."
Little did I know, every time I contracted a Shadow Pokémon, I could feel their masked pain and roar.
The system is tempting me to fall, and my digital ascension is just around the corner.
But I chose a harder path:
Strip away the madness in the abyss, and forge true love in the plunder.
Use shadow as a blade to cut through the doomsday;
Use the heart as fire to rekindle civilization.
When the supreme god Arceus inquires from me, when the system host issues an ultimatum.
I stand on the ruins, behind me are the shadow beasts that have broken free from their shackles, and thousands of elves who follow me voluntarily.
"The old rules are dead."
I raised my hand, shadow and light intertwined in my palm.
"Now, it's up to me to define what a true bond is."
This is an epic about plunder and redemption, madness and sanity, destruction and rebirth.
