#118 A Silent Ship

Orc Leader, Orkubo, reporting once again.


“Witch?”

“Did she just say ‘Witch?’”

“Um, does that mean...”


We were baffled by the words that came out of the mermaid’s mouth whom I just fished out of the water.


Her lower half is that of a fish with pitch-black scales while the upper half is a torso of a beautiful lady.

She had long and voluminous purple hair that was more than enough to cover her entire back. View Post

#117 Orc of the Sea

I am Orkubo, a humble servant of Saint Kidan belonging to the orc team.


For some reason, I’ve become their representative even though there are other senior orcs like me.


It is not something I desired, but now that I’m in charge, I make sure to do my best every day.


Everyone on the farm is my friend.

Lord Saint’s enemies are also my enemies.


As I spent my days working earnestly, my friends started calling me “Or...

#116 Personal Relations on the Farm No. 3

Oh yeah, the earth spirits actually cherish their satyr sisters the most.


Satyrs are a mix of man and goat, and...

Um...


They produce milk.

They provide us milk and other dairy products around the clock and have become an indispensable asset on our farm.

It’s during the nighttime when they would usually start working.

#115 Personal Relations on the Farm No. 2

I decided to observe the residents on my farm to keep our peaceful state in check, but...

I was already hit with an intense one right from the very start.


As I thought, there would always be a relationship between an orc and an elf.


I’ll find a less intense combination next.

#114 Personal Relations on the Farm No. 1


Well, well, well.

It’s me again.


Lately, I’ve realized that we’re getting more and more people on our farm. We’re getting more and more people on our farm lately.

Not all of them are “human”-people, though.


First, the twenty elven bandits joined us, followed by a short intermission of winter, then the earth spirit volunteers, and the alluring satyrs. Even Pochi and the other hylyecaons who joined way before them have gotten ...

#113 Dragon’s Den

*This chapter is told in third-person-perspective, set in a place different from our protagonist.

_______________________________________________________

Geyser Dragon’s den is called Dragon Emperor’s Fortress, a humongous fortress-type dungeon.


Normally, a dungeon arises due to stagnated mana that once flowed around the world. The highly compressed mana distorts time and space to create a mysterious labyrinth.


However, Geyser Dragon’s fortr...

#112 Life with Milk


Our farm welcomed even more residents.

It hasn’t been that long since the earth spirits joined us, so it’s been hectic.


Still, this bustle is a good thing.


Anyway, back to our satyr friends. They are a therianthropic race and are half-human, half-goat. Proof of it are the curved horns on their heads and the snow-white bushy tails on their behinds.

Their legs are also replaced with goat-like hooves that are said to help them climb st...

#111 A Benevolent Dragon

This is a recount of the events that happened during Veil’s six-day absence.


Veil set her mind on retaliating for the humiliation she received from the dragon milk incident.


She thought that if she could resolve the root of the problem with her own efforts, she can prove herself superior to Platy.


First, she barged in at Sensei’s cave dungeon.


“Why him?”

“That pseudo-corpse has lived long enough to know most o...

“What?! You seriously confronted Veil?” asked Aileron, dumbstruck by what we just told her.


Apparently, Platy was her information broker.


“It’s a legendary drink among us elves. One of our ancestors who drank it gained supreme power and defeated the Demon King of their time.”

“I knew it just had to be that kind of drink!”

#109 As Long as They Have A Chest

Butter is a type of dairy product.


In short, it’s made of milk.


Milk is used as an ingredient in a variety of food and comes in many forms and names—butter, cheese, cream, yogurt, etc.

It’s an ingredient that I would love to have on my farm, but it hasn’t been realized to date.

Why?

It’s not because I deliberately want to save it for some other time. I’ve been trying to find a way to get my hands on it just like with every other ...

#108 Spirit Maids

Back in my world, there’s a saying that maids must keep the house clean so that fairies can live in it.

I’m not quite sure about other worlds, though.


Its meaning lies in the mindset that maids should be invisible like a fairy and not let their master or guests see them at work because they consider the act of cleaning unsightly. Hence, it’s preferable not to show it to anyone above a certain social status.


However, upon arriving here, instead of ...

#107 Dwarves of the Fields

We ended up capturing around thirty little girls.

Wait.

That sounds wrong.

They may be little girls, but they came crawling out of the ground.


This must be another one of those fantasy setups. I sure do hope so, because otherwise, I don’t think I can mentally handle it.

Meanwhile, Gobukichi is dozing off in the backgrou...

#106 A Mysterious Event

Thus, some time after resuming our farmwork, I was consulted by Gobukichi


“We’re making progress with the field.”

“Hm?”


Again...Gobukichi told me:


“Fieldwork is progressing faster than anticipated.”

“Huh?”


What’s wrong with that?


The goblin team led by Gobukichi consists of four other senior Great Goblins each having nine goblin subordinates, a total of five groups and fifty go...

#105 Dungeon Orchard

I offered rice balls to the house altar (I have no idea how the worship etiquette works in this world so I took it upon myself to make one) dedicated to Hephaestus as I said my prayers.


“It’s because of your gift, “The Hand of Supremacy,” that I can live here with ease. Please continue to look after me.”


Spring is in the air, and a new year has come.

#104 Spring

Winter is finally over, which marks the coming of spring.


The melted snow is flowing down the river and into the sea.


Everyone was delighted with the passing of the enduring season.


But... is it all right for me to assume that it has been a year since I was transported into this world now that spring has come?


Thinking about it now, I indulged in doing whatever I wanted before winter.

#103 Pounding Mochi

It’s peak winter, and the winter breeze is terribly cold with icicles dangling from the rain gutters.

Nonetheless, every resident on our farm has their own unique way of enjoying the season.

I’m also trying to enjoy winter in my own way.

First, I buried some potatoes under the snow.

I know it may sound ludicrous to some, but doing so enhances a potato’s sweetness.

The secret lies in taking it out before it gets soaked in melted snow.

#102 A King’s Murmur – Sequel

I am Genesis the 18th, king of the human race.

Sluuuuurp.

Squeezed fish juice is so good.

Fish goes to waste when being transported to the inland capitals, so only its extract is sent to preserve its taste.

It stinks, but it’s worth it.

It’s a luxurious item that peasants will never get to know of.

Such is a noble’s taste!

You’re jealous that a king like me can have this every day, aren’t you?

#101 Winter

Winter has come.

It was so sudden that we weren’t prepared for it.

One day it started snowing, and then it quickly escalated into a violent snowstorm.

When dawn came, I was greeted by a silver world.

“Thank goodness we harvested all that we could in advance!”

Our MVPs are none other than our new elven friends.

“I already told you that winter’s coming soon, why are you planting again?!” angrily said Aileron, so we harvested all of our crops.

#100 Remodeling Plan

Thanks to the elves coming to our farm, the range of items we were able to make have expanded. All that we’ve made up until now were made with “The Hand of Supremacy’s” support as well as the very little knowledge I have with me. Nonetheless, it still had its limits. We weren’t able to eradicate the technical flaws. Well, my gift still helped cover those, but it still wasn’t perfect.


And that’s where the elves come in.

#99 Alcohol

We brewed alcohol.


If we only needed to quench our thirst, just having water is more than enough.

So, is there really any need to go out of our way to drink something that can potentially ruin our health?


Even so, we can’t help but crave it.


It is one of the many things that our farm still lacks, but thanks to the fruits of our research, we were finally able to brew some.

I am Aileron, and I used to be the head of elven bandits called Thunderstorm Stonecutters.

Alas, we finally ran out of luck as Lord Kidan captured us in a flash after stealing from his luxurious farm situated in the middle of nowhere.

We have always been prepared for the consequences of our actions, whether we were stealing from the humans or demons, most likely getting our heads chopped off as a penalty. Worst case scenario, they’ll take notice of our beauty as elves instead an...

What Aileron picked up was the clay plate that we were still working on.

Though it’s more appropriate to call it a prototype than an actual, usable plate.

We were just about to discuss their future here, but it seems we’re back to where we started.

What does she want to do with the plate?

It’s still incomplete, so I feel embarrassed when she scrutinizes it like that...

I came running as soon as I was called, and sure enough, they were there – twenty unseen faces sitting upright next to each other.

They were all women and had an exotic air that differentiates them from the demon and human races.
