Character[]
The main character of this work. In his previous life, after graduating from university, he got a job at a black company, overworked his body, finished his 20s, suffered from a visceral disease, spent his 30s in a hospital, and lived a terrible life at the age of 39. He died before he was in his forties. Initially self-analyzed that he was afraid of people because he lost his parents at an early stage and seemed to be disgusted with those who claim to be relatives in heritage relations, and even at a black company he could not establish a good relationship with his colleagues. Was. Often, he did not get sick in that situation. It may have had a strong effect on the body.
After he died, he faced the Creator God and moved to another world of a leisurely farmer (because he cannot take over his memory if he was reincarnated. See the Creator God page for the reason). I was rejuvenated until my late teens or early 20s, and I hope that the "Beginner Pack" by the Creator God, who understands the local language and can write letters, will not get sick from the experience of life that was exhausted to the end of the fight against illness. However, in response to his desire for a "healthy body" and "to farm", which was handed over by the Creator God, he took over all-purpose farming tools from the farming god and transferred them.
From the above experience, I was hoping for a "place where there are not many people" as a transfer place, but instead of having no people, the forest of death, in which ordinary humans cannot live at all, becomes a transfer place. However, with the power of all-purpose farming tools, we cultivate the land of the dead forest, which should not be suitable for vegetation, process trees in the forest that are difficult to cut, and process to make a bed and secure a living space by digging a well.
He lived for a while, but one day he found Inferno Wolf's turn, which was injured by a grappler bear. Since there were pregnant female individuals, she protected them and took care of them until childbirth. After that, he gave the names Kuro and Yuki and made them partners in communal living. Then, before the winter of the first year comes, Kuro's child proposes to bring an illegal demon spider to make clothes. The Illegal Demon Spider is named Zabton because of its appearance and welcomes him.
After that, for some reason, Rurushi, Ru, who had escaped to the Forest of Death, helped Kuro and his friends to live together as a bride. She also chased Ru and entered the forest, and Tia also got angry, and the high elf and other races brought by the two began to gather and form a village. The village later became known as the village of Taiki, and Hiraku became an influential village head there. However, the name "Hiraku" has not fully penetrated the villagers. Villager A's testimony "Because the village head is the village head." Even in this wiki, it is not stable because it says "Hiraku" or "Village head". Mostly because of the administrator.
In addition, to the visitors, Beezel is called "Fire music", and after Michael, he is called "Hiraku". However, depending on the status of the visitor, it is introduced that "this is the village head of our village", so the chances of the fire music itself are decreasing. Although he is a mistake of the creator god, he is a gentle young man who lives a fierce and hard life but never forgets his gratitude. It's because of the Creator that he suffered on Earth, but he doesn't know.
By the way, it is a mistake of the creator god that the transfer place was the forest of death, and it is also a creation that I did not know that the universal farm tool is a replica but it is a god tool, so if it is used by ordinary humans, it will wear out the spirit and die immediately. God's careless mistake. You can get angry. However, his daughter, Agricultural God, has been physically sanctioned, and the above mistakes have been known, so he has no position. He is mild-mannered and has a gentle personality that tries to protect his relatives, but on the other hand, he does not forgive if he tries to mischief or harm agricultural land or crops.
Attacks with all-purpose farm tools negate all barriers and penetrate (God attribute), so even if dragons and similar powerful races have protective barriers, they will pass through. He swallowed Kuro's cub and dragged Earth Rat, who escaped into the ground, shook his neck, tore his body, and rescued Kuro's cub, who was swallowed with such force that the founder had no time to touch. By the way, the above-mentioned unforgiving is also applied to those who have a long relationship and even his wife, and although he does not guess, he has released all-purpose farming tools to Draim and Hakuren who have begun to rub near the crop to be harvested.
Furthermore, depending on the anger, even though it is in a state of mimicking a human being, it exerts a mysterious physical ability that makes an iron claw to a certain dragon of the Ancient dragon tribe and says "It hurts". Some special force may be working because the village head's iron claw was effective even though the dragons did not seem to have been damaged so much even if they hit each other in a state of mimicking humans.
Is it a characteristic of a healthy body given by God? This iron claw is also effective for the fairy queen and is used extensively. It seems that it does not react to such a "healthy body", the fascinating effect when vampires suck blood and energetic agents. In addition, no matter how much blood is given to Ru, he does not feel like he has decreased, so it is possible that he was replenished from the side he smoked to maintain his health. If it is immediately replenished, there is no such description yet, but even a physical defect may be cured immediately in the name of maintaining health.
However, if you are scratched by a cat, you will be injured, and you may get drunk and your memory may be ambiguous. In addition, there were times when the depiction of sneezing in response to rumors and the play with Inferno Wolf and others caused the arm to reach its limit due to the excessive throwing of the flying disc, and the limit came due to the sneezing. For some reason, when Ru used thunder magic at the water's edge, Daga and Gulf fainted, and he was "a little bit nervous". (Lightning) May be resistant (or mitigated) to magic. He did not faint when he first met Zabton, who has a stun bash. Also, whether the scope of health includes the spirit, the mental control by the intelligence sword is not received as well as the fascination.
The effect of a "healthy body" or the depiction of aging is not said to be this. According to the author, "I'm not immortal, I'm getting older quite slowly." In episode 325, "Northern Party," which is the 13th year of the film, Rogarbo said that he saw fire music in his "twenties." He is unlikely to die except for his life, so he is likely to live for thousands of years. Perhaps because he worked for a black company in his previous life, he was able to recover from the congestion and the inadequacy of the store in the blink of an eye, and the confusion of Marula was quickly put in place, and he started the next business.
Due to the poorly developed world, the food he produces with all-purpose farming tools has a very good reputation, and his knowledge of cooking, liquor, and techniques is highly acclaimed. However, the source of that knowledge is a TV program that the idol who was watching as a support for the heart during the fight against illness farms (from 7 o'clock on Sunday, it is said that the morus alba is calmer than the musical instrument and the island is cultivated. It seems that the talent was watching a program where the talent experienced various things at the end of the world), so it does not cover the details of how to make it, and there is a lot of fluffy and vague knowledge.
Still, it has a high reputation because of the immature world of cooking. Like sake and curry. One of the drawbacks of the village head is that the gap between the perception of the person and the perception of the surroundings is too severe. He's not bad for himself, though. His common sense is before the transition, that is, the common sense of the earth. However, there is a fairly unique "common sense" in the different world of the transfer destination, and the village head's recognition often does not work. For example, marriage and child-rearing. Of course, he also strives to adapt every day, but the cultural barrier is still thick.
Also, since it is drawn from a fire music perspective, the reader does not care, and most of the events surrounding him as seen by the general public in the leisurely farming world are those of one page of mythology. In addition, among the Kamidai dragons, it has been confirmed that they will take over the status of the next dragon king and dark dragon, and there will be a scene where the god's dragons are treated as candidates for the next dragon king and dark dragon. Then it will come out. Also, as the person in question is aware, the naming sense is not good.
He is pleased with the demon family, but when it comes to naming his children, his intentions are Hiichirou, and otherwise basically his wife's intentions. In fact, at the moment when Hiraku decided to name Arachne as Arachne, Ru Rurushi decided to give the name of the child to be born by himself, which clearly shows the evaluation of his naming sense. He has no sense of direction and poor singing ability (awareness as well as naming sense). Women's relationships are quite flashy, albeit with some common sense issues in the world. Starting with Rurushi, Ru, he has relationships with 54 Tia and High Elves, and 20 demon maids, and since then, Hakuren, Ru Rurushi, Fraurem -Chrome, Gran Maria, Kudel, Corone, Flora, Yar, and so on. He also has relationships with elves and some of the beast-human girls (migrants). Well, there are various reasons such as the problem of the survival of the race and the building of friendly relations with villages in other places, but even so, there are too many. (All the demon maids and high elves appearing in the work are making children with the village head's daughter-in-law), If I write it so that there is no misunderstanding, there is no feeling of cheating on the fire music, and for the fire music person, it was only necessary to have one partner at night, but the effect of the "healthy body" given by the creator god. Because it keeps the best condition all the time, it shows a tremendous amount of unequaled energy (you can deal with multiple high elves who love child-making at the same time so that the dream demons stare at you with respect). As a result of asking for Ru day and night, he transformed into a young person during the day and was directly requested to "weigh himself ♡" (for that reason, the name when calling Hiraku was a horny beast for a while. The body screamed Ru, who was taken along with Tia to distribute the load of the rice fields. Naturally, the person in charge of fire music does not know this story. As mentioned at the beginning of this article, the body is a young man but the spirit is in his 40s. In addition to the Japanese values, Harlem will rather wear out at this mental age.
Moreover, some of the other parties are daughters like Senna, who look like high school students. There is a possibility of age and equivalent. This is painful. It is said that no matter how much mental wear is done by the extremely healthy physical authority, it will never wear out. There are too many opponents and it's almost every day, so it's already a self-suggestion that "I'm enjoying it for some reason." Every night I get acquainted with the women in the village's desire to get pregnant, and I don't run out of souls... but when I notice it, I spend the morning, and there are only a few days when I get a good night's sleep after the rears came. Urayama Gassho. When Gratz said, "The village head's wife," the stickers were "full," and the wife alone couldn't tell who she was pointing to.
The person was trying to dodge the attack on the female side when the demon maid moved to the village because of "peace of mind", but as far as Ru's initial response is seen, "If you are the village head" Only if it is judged by the women that it is okay for multiple people. (Although it is described in the comicalized version volume 1, it seems that the rear high elf came to Hiraku's sleeping place at the same time and was loved at the same time, rather than having multiple opponents at the same time. However, in the subsequent depiction of the demon-human maid in the Naruro version, I got up alone in the morning, dressed up, and got out of the village mayor's room, so multiple times for each race at the same time. It seems that they are different like one person, and what they have in common is that all races are eager to get pregnant and love Hiraku so much that they have to form a rotation. I have it. However, it is the strongest force in the work with a substantial divine messenger (authorized by the Creator God), it is a sender of gastronomy and entertainment isolated from the outside world, has excess assets, has the worth to support all the villagers, and has a good personality that does not cheat. It is an excellent property with a superb character, and it has never made a woman with whom it has a relationship inconvenient, and since it has an equal affection for the born child, it is the choice of the attacking woman. It can be said that was not wrong. I have a lot of wives... I'm a married couple just because I'm too much.
In addition, since he has so many wives that he forms a rotation, Hiraku takes a stance of refusing to enter the concubine from outside the village, but this eventually brings the village of Taiki closer to the place of political struggle. It's not all bad things, such as leading to nothing and helping to keep the village secret. That being said, he has never been with a human woman to date. It's not particularly important in itself, that is, all his children born so far are half of the other races. Even the sub-races that are connected to humans can be crossed in different ways, but they are also children of dragons that are not humans just because they can take the form of humans. Is he really in the framework of the human race, who was revived and revived by the Creator God and became a child with so many other races?

"It's fine if you want to come play, and i goes without saying, that you're going to clean up this mess, right?"
― Hiraku Machio said to Hakuren
He a resurrected human from Earth (a fact not shared with anyone) he was granted gift of a non-disease body (Healthy Body), gift of languages, and mystical/phantasmagoric item known only as the 『AFT』 (All-Purpose Farming Tool). Unlike ALL beings of Isekai Nonbiri Nouba world, Hiraku can NOT use magic whatsoever. He however has enchantments of bestowed on him by the local god that resurrected him. He considered powerless, but AFT grants him abilities no one else can match.

- Able to talk with any race. Also supports ancient languages. I can read texts and codes. In this world with a wide variety of cultures, there are many languages that are no longer used.
- The village chief hears everything from common languages to aquatic race languages and ancient fairy languages in the same way, and when you speak to the target, it will be in that language.
- From the village chief's point of view, everything is in Japanese. Therefore, everyone speaks the same language and thinks they understand each other. Therefore, in order to ask others to talk to each other without themselves, "Taiju no Mura" is promoting the multilingualization of the residents. With each new inhabitant, you learn more languages.
『ALL-PURPOSE FARMING TOOL』
|
The land he is cultivating is called the "Forest of Death" and is so dangerous that even the Demon King is prepared to die. Because he is living a civilized life (with black technology in some places) that surpasses that of royalty and aristocrats, he is regarded as an important figure by various people and forces. His position in the village is “village chief,” and he also holds the position of village chief in villages 1 through 5, which have been expanded as the population increases (each village is represented by a deputy chief). In addition, with the opening of the restaurant “Marula Curry Shop” in the port town of Shashart, “manager” was added to his title. In Gomura, he is called “General” for the opening of a ramen shop.
(It seems that it took some time to correct Hiraku's past titles, such as “king,” “lord,” and “chief of a large village,” which were added immediately after his immigration to High Elf. ) The “village chiefs” that Hirak came up with were laughed out of existence by the demon tribe.
Incidentally, when Hiraku's position was questioned by his subordinates, the Demon King described him as "the new Demon King" or "the Super Demon King." Some residents of the Demon Kingdom who witnessed Hiraku riding on a flying carpet mistook him for the "Great Demon King," but Hiraku himself was unaware of the misunderstanding because he was surrounded by Demon Kings. The Demon King introduced Hiraku to the people who misunderstood him as "more than a Demon King" and ordered them to keep it a secret.

Tia reveals Ru has a bounty on her after she destroyed a town, though Ru insists it was justified since a noble kept her imprisoned there. Ru abruptly invites Tia to live with them, and after experiencing their farming life, she takes to it like a natural.

Hiraku and the elves construct a canal and reservoir for access to water and fishing. With an abundance of water, Hiraku constructs his first rice field and uses the first harvest to make onigiri with fish. Next, they construct a bath house, including a second reservoir which they filled with slimes to purify water from the baths before returning it to the river. Hiraku is able to have a bath, but his relaxing bath becomes very stressful surrounded by nine beautiful, naked ladies who insists on joining him in the bath. Five additional elven girls make their way to the farm, so Hiraku decides to build more houses. The elves seem determined to begin having babies as soon as possible, worrying Hiraku as he is the only man among an increasing number of women. Kuro the wolf narrates he is grateful to Hiraku for giving him and his family a permanent home. He is certain Hiraku, who easily survives in Death Forest and attracts so many potential wives, must be more than an average human. | |||||

| At everyone else’s insistence Hiraku’s house is rebuilt even larger with single bedrooms for himself, Ru and Tia; and a communal dining room for everyone to share. Hiraku wisely ignores the secret double bed hidden behind a locked door. Hiraku harvests his first crop of spices, allowing him to make curry with naan bread. Ru and Tia become obsessed with turning cilantro into protective charms against Hiraku’s wolves who dislike the strong smell, as they still remember the wolves beating them up the first times they came to the farm. Winter approaches so everyone begins stockpiling supplies, particularly firewood and preserved food. Hiraku fears he isn’t contributing enough as he is the only one unable to use magic, but Lea assures him no one else has managed to live and thrive in Death Forest before. Winter arrives so with everyone confined indoors Hiraku introduces board games, allowing Ru and Tia to maintain their rivalry without damaging anything. Hiraku is surprised the wolves can also play, with Kuro easily defeating Ru at chess and Hiraku at Mah-jong. Spring eventually arrives but before they can plant new crops Zabuton sounds the alarm as a giant Wyvern approaches the farm. | |||||

God is punished by his daughter, the Goddess of Agriculture, who reveals the Farming Tool he gave Hiraku is actually a replica of Gryme the God Spear, and Hiraku has only survived using it because God coincidentally granted him a supernaturally healthy body. Zabuton and the wolves catch another vampire who turns out to be Ru’s sister Flora. As another researcher, Flora is fascinated by Hiraku’s description of fermenting microorganisms which make wine, miso and tofu, so she moves onto the farm, bringing cows and two dozen ogre maids with her. Feeling outnumbered, Tia invites three more angels and a tribe of Lizardmen who provide chickens. Another thirty elves arrive, all with plans to have babies. Hiraku really starts to worry about the absence of other men. As the farm expands to fit everyone Hiraku renames it the Great Tree Village and throws a feast to celebrate the occasion where everyone unanimously declares Hiraku as the Village Mayor. | |||||

| Demon General Beezel meets with Hiraku who offers the Demon Lord 10% of his harvest as a yearly tax. Beezel accepts but later reveals to Generals Grattz and Randan he only accepted 10% for fear of what is protecting Hiraku’s village: Vampire Princess Ru, Angel of Annihilation Tia, an army of elves, angels and Lizardmen, a pack of Inferno Wolves and a Greater Demon Spider. Dragon King Dryme also visits the village. Hiraku realises as mayor the need to cultivate diplomatic relationships, so they build an embassy to house overnight visitors.

In exchange for wine Dryme agrees to ferry trade goods between the Great Tree Village and Howling Village. Eventually, twenty Beastmen ask to move into Great Tree village, all young women.

A man suddenly appears who turns out to be Vampire Progenitor Vargryfe, Ru and Flora’s 4000 year old grandfather. Vampires usually have children by transforming another human into a vampire, so Ru’s pregnancy is a rare occurrence. Having seen Hiraku’s statue of the God who reincarnated him Vargryfe reveals he also met God once before being born as a vampire. He has forgotten most details since, to keep his sanity over his eternal lifespan, he erases his memories every few centuries. Hiraku carves Vargryfe a copy of the statue which Vargryfe secretly donates to the temple of the God of Creation. The priests are so entranced by such an accurate likeness of God they let it be known the Great Tree Village is under their protection. To celebrate Ru’s pregnancy Vargryfe sends the village an expensive grand piano. The Trio are too nervous to play it so Hiraku ends up buying a cheaper version for them to practice on first, though regrets it when their practicing prevents him sleeping. | |||||

Ru's labor and delivery period is an uneasy time for Hiraku as he was banished from the house for the time being so he wanders the farm until Ru gives birth to their son Alfred, a half-vampire, and Hiraku is overjoyed at being a first time parent.

To celebrate Alfred’s birth a grand feast is held and the dwarves produce a celebratory wine to be saved until Alfred is old enough to drink. Beezel finally declares the Great Tree village to be too powerful to ever defeat and plans to become allies instead.
