Single love interest Yuri! No lengthy misunderstandings over this fact~
---
After failing to ascend to the heights of Divinity despite all her preparations, an ancient cultivator finds herself not embracing the emptiness of the void - but the interior warmth of a womb.

Her memories intact despite her spirit being a merest fraction of her height - and her trusted Astralism unchanged - she carefully starts over from an infant.
How to navigate her family: [really easy with only two parents and an estate full of servants!]
How to portray herself: [everyone likes 'sweet' kids and trusts (underestimates) 'weak' girls!]
How 'quickly' to reveal the power she gathers: [this region is a 'backwater', let's just take it slow~]
How her marriage was arranged before birth: [my parents adore me so at an appropriate time I'll just have it cance- oh?]
Dealing with an 'amusing' deceit: ['he' looks worried still, but 'he' doesn't have to worry from me!]
Confronting the 'boy' in private: [whatever their iffy plan is, I just obtained a husband-wife~]

Even in a new life, | Elua er Goltbred | can't and doesn't *want* to change who she really is. A scheming cultivator. A possessive lover. Neither of those things had been a real hindrance to the Peak of Demi-God.
Balancing the two in this life - without driving away the young 'boy' she decided would be hers - centers as much around helping | Qatrand er Yecine | find herself... as it is hoping to ease the fiance into how messed up the 'younger' girl honestly is.

It's a good thing that the reborn cultivator can improvise with her ridiculous control of an Illusion Astralism - because plans fail and unexpected things happen when you're not *really* a genius.
Like her Physique in this life allowing the lightest 'grip' to crack stone...

| Qat | (the nickname picked almost instantly!) despite being a little stunted by her family environment early on, finds her future wife to be 'cute' on their first meeting.
... she really shouldn't have let on.
It made her | El | kind of vain.

Oh, and muscles.
| Elua | : I just like looking at them, okay!? Is it so weird? People can have hobbies...

Cover Art: AI Text Prompt Generation + title (etc.) added with an image editor. I also tend to do other 'fixes' in post!

Potential trigger warnings:
> A FL that may seem (to some) like they are being groomed due to 'true age' difference.
> A MC that gets a little 'thirsty' a little 'young' but tries to 'keep her own pants on' until the proper age.
> A toxic family environment willing to force an unloved child into the role of a crossdresser. A child that grew more than okay with it.
> 'Pretty Good Dad' intentionally 'picked on' by his 'sweet daughter' for being a relatively 'minor obstacle'. Seriously, you were warned, average fathers with teenagers. Do not engage your trauma.

: Donning a cringy academic hat : In Seraphelki’s book The Ogre Strength Fairy And The Eldest ‘Son’, a variety of authorial choices and literary techniques are used in combination with the author’s inspired imagination, ultimately delivering a story that takes the readers through an emotional journey with its relatable characters not just as an observer but as an active participant in the romantic adventure. For characterization, the juxtaposition of the MC’s persona, as someone advanced enough to attempt the final ascension, and the young body she inhabits in the early part of the novel, creates a vibrant and multi-dimensional character who is both devious and sweet simultaneously. Her love interest, Qat the eldest ‘Son’ - a girl masquerading as a boy - shares a similar mismatch of external appearance and inner self, which makes for an intriguing relationship between two girls who both have conflicting self-identities. By allowing the readers to be a part of the trinity that shares this secret, an intimate connection is established between the readers and the characters, making the plot progress personally engaging. The language is rich with sensory imagery and metaphors that perfectly deliver the adorable impression of young love. As the readers are led through the maturing process of the characters’ relationships and self-discoveries, the emotional investment grows and keeps the readers’ interest. The plot is paced with deliberation capitalizing on effective use of time skips that accommodate in-depth exploration of various growth stages of characters. The world-building and the lore are delivered in the form of discovery that closely follows the evolving path of the plot and character development, and is also augmented by the inclusion of humorous interviews with the author in stand-alone chapters who manages to stay in character fitting to the narrative style of the book itself. The culmination of these factors results in a gripping narrative that captures the essence of both fantasy and romance genres with the added elements of a coming-of-age story. Tl;dr - It’s a good book. Read it.

The MC seems to be a hidden Mary Sue, and the person she is attaching herself to is clueless about it. Might be interesting. The point of the cross-dressing isn't very clear early on (By the end of C4). The cultivation stuff in the early chapters is off-putting, but it was a Yuri tagged with it so it makes sense to be there. Hoping for no Harem or Futa in the future! *fingers crossed*
