❝Kalau kemungkinan itu ada, aku akan memilih untuk mengenalmu meski hanya sebatas nama.❞ ___________ Eslyn Raquel, gadis biasa yang memiliki jutaan rasa sakit yang disimpan untuk dirinya sendiri. Siswi kelas X SMA Sirius, dikenal oleh semua orang karena keberaniannya untuk melawan Zaus, orang yang paling berkuasa di sekolah itu. Tinggal di Apartment kumuh bersama keponakan kecilnya. Orang tuanya meninggal saat dia masih kecil. Dan kembali ditinggalkan oleh kakaknya saat berumur 14 tahun. Saat itu, Eslyn berada di titik yang paling rendah dalam hidupnya. Tapi Eslyn berusaha untuk bangkit. Demi Eres kecilnya. Demi impian. Dan demi kebahagiaan yang belum pernah dirasakan. Beberapa waktu kemudian Tuhan mengirimkan pembawa kebahagiaan itu melalui wujud seseorang yang mampu membuatnya merasa orang paling beruntung di dunia ini, Garen. Namun semua yang ada di dunia ini bukan sesuatu yang abadi. Saat matanya terbuka dari mimpinya yang panjang Eslyn tidak menemukan kebahagiaannya, kebahagiaan telah hilang. Tuhan mengambil kembali Garen, miliknya yang telah Eslyn pinjam dalam waktu yang lama.

Semua berawal dari kepergian seorang gadis manja bernama Miku ke sebuah pulau di wilayah utara yang masih asri dan sejuk, bernama Pulau Elang. Awalnya, Miku datang dengan niat sederhana: bekerja dan mengumpulkan uang demi kepentingan pribadinya. Namun, rencana itu perlahan berubah ketika ia bertemu dengan Mark, seorang pria pribumi Pulau Elang yang tanpa disadari berhasil mengubah cara pandang Miku terhadap dunia dan kehidupan di sekitarnya. Hubungan mereka tumbuh cepat. Hanya dalam waktu tiga hari, ketertarikan berubah menjadi rasa sayang. Meski demikian, cinta yang mereka jalani harus disembunyikan—tak seorang pun boleh mengetahui hubungan mereka. Hubungan yang tersembunyi itu justru menumbuhkan banyak salah paham, terutama ketika Miku terlihat dekat dengan Rio, pria yang berasal dari suku yang sama dengan Mark, namun memiliki karakter yang sangat bertolak belakang. Kesalahpahaman demi kesalahpahaman perlahan meretakkan hubungan mereka, hingga rasa percaya Mark terhadap Miku nyaris hilang. Namun, Miku bukanlah sosok yang mudah menyerah. Ia berjuang mengembalikan kepercayaan Mark, meski setelahnya pertengkaran dan perbedaan justru semakin sering terjadi. Anehnya, di balik konflik tersebut, rasa sayang di antara mereka tumbuh semakin dalam—terutama saat mereka hanya berdua. Tanpa disadari, mereka kerap melupakan sebuah tembok besar yang berdiri di hadapan hubungan mereka: perbedaan keyakinan. Miku berdoa dengan tangan terangkat, sementara Mark berdoa dengan tangan tergenggam. Perbedaan yang sederhana, namun terasa sangat berat. Perjalanan cinta mereka belum usai ketika keadaan dan waktu memaksa mereka berpisah, terutama saat Miku harus kembali ke kampung halamannya. Namun, takdir kembali mempertemukan mereka. Dengan penuh rasa syukur, Miku menyadari bahwa skenario yang Tuhan tuliskan untuk hidupnya adalah tentang cinta yang tumbuh di tengah perbedaan. Mereka belajar untuk bersama meski cara berdoa tak sama, karena yang mereka yakini adalah bahwa setiap agama mengajarkan kebaikan, bukan keburukan.

One day, a strange hand suddenly appeared inside Chi Wan’s interdimensional space. Its owner claimed to be living in the apocalypse—starving, desperate—and begged to trade anything he had for food. Chi Wan stared at the pile of Imperial Green jade, oversized diamonds, and dozens of kilograms of gold bars he offered… and fell into deep thought. …Wasn’t this a little too profitable? From then on, her connection to the apocalypse only grew stronger. The mysterious man—who turned out to be a powerful figure—used his Wood Ability to help her revive rare orchids, cultivate endangered plants, and even harvest zombie crystal cores for the country. As for Chi Wan? She only had three responsibilities: feed him, feed him, and keep feeding him. Somehow, without realizing it, a group of extraordinary men began to gather around her: A genius research scientist. An aloof, abstinent CEO. A cold and ruthless Soldier King… In front of Chi Wan, they were gentle, attentive, and impeccably polite—each trying to outshine the others. Behind her back? They were one step away from tearing each other apart. Meanwhile, on the other side of the spatial link… The so-called King of the Apocalypse clenched his teeth in silence as he listened to these men compete for her attention. As for Chi Wan? “I’m busy getting rich and supporting my family,” she said calmly. “A battle royale of suitors? I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Until one day— An absurdly handsome man appeared at the gates of her villa… carrying a sack filled with gold and jewels. “I’m here to marry into your family,” he declared. Chi Wan glanced at him, then at the newly connected wasteland world inside her space… …and once again fell into deep thought.
