Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: Betrayal and Loss

Adrian Lin, a young man from a prestigious family in China, finds his world shattered when his girlfriend Lisa and his best friend Tom betray and cheat on him. The pain of their betrayal cuts deep, leaving him emotionally scarred and feeling utterly alone.

Overnight, his family, once a pillar of wealth and influence, is destroyed through unscrupulous means, leaving Adrian orphaned with only his family's Contour guards as his sole support.

Amidst his despair, Adrian finds solace and guidance in an unexpected source – a wise and compassionate female elder among his Contour guards. She becomes a guiding light in his darkest moments, offering him a listening ear and sage advice. With her calming presence, she helps him navigate through the treacherous waves of grief and betrayal, gradually mending his broken spirit.

Part 2: Escaping to the Unknown

Haunted by the ghosts of his past, Adrian decides to escape his unknown fate and the painful memories that surround him. In a bid to find solace and perhaps a glimmer of hope, he embarks on a journey to explore a mysterious island recently purchased by his family. Little does he know that this journey will not only reveal hidden secrets but also grant him a power beyond his imagination.

As Adrian sets foot on the enigmatic island, he discovers that his family's Contour guards have been blessed with extraordinary abilities. These abilities correspond to whatever element there is in the world, and more will be discovered.
