When Lilian transmigrated into a seafaring world as a player, her player character was only five years old.
From the start, she arrived in God's Valley as a five-year-old toddler, clutching two red-haired babies as she fled for her life from the beginner village.
Lilian didn't know what else to do.
After finally escaping, she met the Roger Pirates at fifteen. Hey, what a coincidence. Wasn't this red-haired brat the baby she'd casually dumped on a pirate ship years ago??
What's it like to get married at sixteen?
Come on, let the thirty-six-year-old Emperor of the Sea, Red-Haired Shanks, tell you. He's got experience.
“Hehehehe, back then!” the drunken man cried, slurring his words as he raised his wine bottle.
“Lilian said you need courage to get married! Then she took my hand and made a vow to the sea~!”

Arrogant, haughty, clever, and ruthless beneath a sweet exterior, Lilian
vs
Sunny, devoted-to-men Shanks
She's technically the older sister, but they're childhood sweethearts at heart.
[A few things to know before reading~]
1. This story was inspired by the special episode, A Letter from a Fan. The central theme is pursuing one's ideals. (In bold and extra large) The female lead is willing to give up everything to achieve her ultimate ideal, and she is not absolutely good.
2. It features a male-oriented secondary-world setting. There are baby Red, little Red, middle-sized Red, and big Red. I love Red.
3. There are four other players besides Lilian, but they don't appear much.
4. Since this was inspired by the special episode, A Letter from a Fan, it isn't a power-fantasy story about an invincible female lead. It's more focused on inner growth and personal choices. The player identity is emphasized, but the game mechanics aren't. Every plot point, setting, and description of the romance exists to develop the female lead, Lilian.
5. They are both madly in love with each other. Don't believe it? Click into the story!
6. Six-six, smooth sailing.
7. The things people will complain about under this story:
Kind-hearted Rouge (❌) Roger inexplicably adoring Ace (❌) Shanks inexplicably adoring the female lead (❌) The sea inexplicably being more lenient toward her because she's a woman (❌) Ace forgiving Roger (❌) Shanks being nothing but an idiot (❌) Shanks being nothing but a schemer (❌) The sea being sexually frustrated at the sight of any pretty woman (❌)
A bunch of cold-blooded yet hot-blooded pirate fools (✔️)

[Next novel: After Being Reborn, My Childhood Friend Erniu Became the Immortal Overseer]
In her previous life, Er Ya was a talisman cultivator who couldn't scrape together two immortal stones from her pockets to buy a sword.
After years of diligent practice, she and her childhood friend Er Niu finally made it from their ramshackle village to Immortal City in the cultivation world.
But before they could even get their footing, whoosh!
The genius sword cultivator Wan Jian Gui Yi swiped the immortal weapon dagger she'd scrimped and saved to buy right there at the auction platform.
When her childhood friend came back with the sugar painting Er Ya had asked him to buy,
he saw Er Ya's soul floating up to the sky, already spilling out of her mouth.
She clung to him and cried, “You beasts! The lot of you are beasts!”
Seeing the snot smeared across his clothes, her childhood friend thought: ...One day, I have to get away from this woman.
Years later, after only a few good days, Er Ya lay on the ground covered in blood.
Through her haze, she saw someone staggering toward her.
Reborn! She, Er Ya, was going to reclaim everything that belonged to her!
Wait, wasn't that Immortal Overseer sitting on the high platform her childhood friend Er Niu, who loved acting all aloof?
Weren't we supposed to get rich together and reach the peak of life?
How did you spend the last hundred years secretly working hard without me?!

Qi Li had hated the girl next door, Ning Yu, ever since he was a child.
She was always climbing over the apricot tree between their homes, and the fallen blossoms littering the ground annoyed him.
Every time, he had to stop what he was doing to clean them up.
He was always thinking about how to get rid of her.
They cultivated immortality, joined a sect, and got married.
He still couldn't get rid of her.
Not until she died.
Not until he killed his enemy did he look up at the sky full of embers and see the illusory figure that only he could see.
He still couldn't get rid of her.
Not until she was reborn.
Qi Li looked at Ning Yu standing before him.
Whether she was an illusion or had possessed someone else's body, it didn't matter.
She was back, after all. He wasn't going to let her get away from him again.

I felt so comfortable watching it 😭 😭 😭 People have to watch this kind of thing to have the strength to survive!!! I particularly like the way the boss posted the answer as to why Shanks likes Lilian so much. If this answer were placed in the daily life of the prison a few days ago, I would be helpless at the heavy and innocent relationship between the young couple, and regret that a pair of childhood sweethearts who loved each other so deeply are now in a situation where they must use shackles to keep their lover. But the answer was interspersed with Lilian's departure like a wisp of wind, a cloud drifting away, and a bird spreading its wings. It was interspersed with the words of farewell and consolation to Shanks, and the context gave me a sense of lightness. Even though we have shaped each other and our souls and bodies are deeply intertwined, we are not the same human beings who had nothing at all! Losing me was a big thing and just a big thing. People are born into this world with nothing and leave with nothing, but they are not alone along the way. Lilian and Shanks have each other, they have ideals worth spending their lives practicing, and they have partners who share the same thoughts and aspirations.
[Question mark] The redhead finally changed? Every day I watch my beloved wife sleeping, not knowing if or when she will wake up, which makes me feel resentful and angry. I couldn't help hugging Lilian and kissing her. There were marks on her body, but Bucky discovered it?
It feels very unsolvable, maybe it can only be proven by becoming stronger. However, this is her ideal, why does she need to prove it to others? Therefore, love is also a chain. While it tightens the grip of others, it also restrains oneself. Alas, it was because Shanks saw Lilian sleeping with his own eyes but could do nothing. He was afraid of being abandoned and never being able to catch up with the other person's departure. Death was untouchable. The other person's departure from this world was a pain that could not be chosen. The ideal became an annoying stumbling block due to worry.
During Shanks' crush, he didn't realize that Lillian liked him until Lillian revealed it, and he treated Lillian in a very low-key manner, as if he was attached to Lillian. After Lillian made it clear, she understood the dangers of Lillian realizing her dream. While she was addicted to love, she was also worried, and even wanted to force Lillian to stay, so that she could block the crisis for her and realize her dream. Later, in order to make Lillian happy, he voluntarily gave up kidnapping and instead observed secretly. After Lilian fell into a coma, she took the initiative to go to the asylum and wanted to adopt Uta as their common child. She asked the unconscious Lilian what she thought. And in this chapter, Shanks is so attached, seeking spiritual asylum, escaping like a child and burying his face in Lilian's belly. From the above, it can be seen that Shanks has a relatively strong sense of insecurity and is in a state of dependence on Lillian in this relationship.
Awesome, so touching. Their lives are more than just each other, communicating, letting go, growing up again, and perfecting each other. [Cat head] [Cat head] Be proud of each other, be proud of each other, dance loudly for us who shine 🐰 🐰
It's not surprising, when the gap between the two sides is huge, the weaker side will receive more bad looks. If Lillian is a very Buddhist heroine who can rely on Shanks with peace of mind, then this book will become a sweet story, but the story will develop around the two of them. Many other plots will become less and dull, and the perspective can only be on the two of them 🍉 It is a test of the author's writing skills, because it will become OOC as you write it, so I don't really like to read sweet novels. The story must have the kind of visual conflict that makes people want to keep reading. There are also good authors of this kind of writing. However, many novels on the market have more such female protagonists, so the level of them varies. The Lillian in the book written by the teacher is different from most common heroine images. She is complicated and contradictory and has her own little thoughts and plans 🐶🌹. The traditional image of a true, kind and beautiful heroine will always be criticized if she does something wrong. At that time, I was wondering why the requirements for girls are so high. Society disciplines women to be true, kind, and beautiful, and this is not harmful to social security in a sense. But what should you do when you meet a bad person? If you do something wrong, some people will say that girls should not behave like this, and their rights and interests will be violated. The bird in the cage is crying, but you say: What a beautiful bird.
Ah. . . This. . . . You. . . Your love is so touching. . . The audience feels exhausted
Updated, hey hey hey, among the trio, I actually feel that Bucky is more like us ordinary people. Bucky's speech in this chapter is a bit funny if you think about it. Shanks is such a heavy man, hahahaha. I don't know how Lilian and Shanks will get along in the future. The writing by Rouse is super good! I hope Rouse goes well with his work!
He was probably complaining about Lillian not listening to Bucky's advice, and scolding Shanks for having no morals and doing some shameless things [Let me be healthy] [Let me be healthy]
Yeah yeah yeah! The eyes of the crowd are sharp. Everyone knows how good Lillian is and agrees that Lillian should fly to the sea, bathe in freedom, and shine with the brilliance of her ideals!
