My name is Machio Hiraku.

After graduating from college, I began overworking my body in a black company in my twenties and lived in the hospital in my thirties.

Male.

Age at the time of death: 39 years old.

And now, I’m meeting god.

「Reincarnate to a different world? 」

「No, it’s transition. 」

「Transition? I thought that I died? 」

「That’s right. Therefore, I’m going to revive you in another world.」

「Er, my body is …」

「I’ll be getting rid of your illness and regenerate your rotten organs. Otherwise, you’ll die soon. I’ll also make you younger after that.」

「Thank you.」

「No need to thank me. I will benefit from sending you to another world. So to speak, you will be resurrected in another world for me.」

「Indeed. So, do I have to do something there?」

「No, just live there. Gently enjoy your second life.」

「Is that so?」

「…… Do you have any complaints?」

「No.」

「How obedient. But… are you really fine with it?」

「Yes. I have lived on the hospital bed for nearly ten years. There is nothing to complain about being younger and having a healthy body.」

「Is that so?….Ah….that is… I have no excuse for pressing you on my own convenience so I will grant your wish.」

「My wish?」

「Umu. For instance….I can give you special skills or a fate with only good encounter.」

「Then, please give me a body that does not get sick.」

「…… A body that doesn’t get sick?」

「Yes. I suffered from my illness. If possible, I do not want to experience that kind of thing again.」

「U-umu. I understand. Then, a body that does not get sick, I’ll give you “Healthy Body”.」

「Thank you.」

「I’ll ask you for another one.」

「Eh? But…」

「Just say it.」

「Uh…Then, can you do something that would make me live in a place with not so many people if possible.」

「A place without people?」

「Yes. Uh… When my parents died, there are various people who introduce themselves as relatives…also, even in the company I entered…therefore…I distrust human a little…well, it’s kind of different. Perhaps, I think that communication with people is not so good. I think that I must go over it immediately but…」

「Therefore, a place without other people? I understand. I’ll consider the place I’ll transfer you to.」

「I don’t mind if there is another one.」

「Eh?」

「Just say it.」

「Uh… Let’s see. Oh, that’s right. Please make sure that I’ll be able to speak the language of the world I’m going to.」

「The vicinity is safe. You’ll be able to speak with basic human beings. It’s a kind of beginner’s pack.」

「Ye-yeah.」

「Come on, tell me your wish quickly.」

「Even if you say that… I’ve been on a hospital bed for a long time so I’m already happy to be able to move. The thing I wish for the most has come true…」

「Then, that’s it. Is there something you want to do? The destination is a world of swords and magic which is common in games you know. Do you want to become the world’s best adventurer? Do you want to become a magi with the rarest ability? Or do you want to be a king somewhere? 」

「Ahaha, no. Those are all too heavy for me. …… I got it. There is something that I wanted to do if my body can move. That is!」

「Really. Say it.」

「Farming.」

「….」

「When I was a child, I always remembered having a hoe on an on-site training. I am interested for some reason. That’s why I want to do farming.」

「Is that so? Farming…」

「Is it useless?」

「It’s not useless. Although it’s not useless, your wish is outside my jurisdiction. Wait a minute.」

「Yes.」

When I was waiting, the God in front of me took out something like an old cell phone and started to speak with someone.

I can hear the words but I completely don’t know the meaning.

Is the language different?

It seems that the one he’s talking to is very excited.

「I kept you waiting. Let me give you this.」

That said, he passed a hoe.

The handle part is wood, only the blade part is made of iron.

「”All Purpose Farming Tool”」

TN:万能(bannō) – It means all purpose but it can also mean omnipotent

「Omnipotent? I think this hoe is surely excellent but an omnipotent farming tool is overkill.」

「It looks like a hoe but if its master imagines it, it can transform according to the application.」

「Transform?」

「Umu. For example, think that it will be a sickle… It is likely to be a sickle. You can also use it as a saw, hammer, crowbar, and shovel.」

「Ooh」

「Furthermore, that is for your exclusive use. It will always be by your side. Even if you throw it, it will  come back.」

「Highly Efficient!」

「By the way, you can store it in your body so you don’t have to worry about the storage location. You can put it in and out as you wish. Try it.」

As I was told, I put the all-purpose farming tool in my body, and try to get it out.

「Awesome!」

「Take good care of it.」

「Yes, I’ll take care of it.」

「…… Now it’s time to move on. Are you ready?」

「It’s okay. Thank you for everything.」

「Umu, then stay healthy.」

While I was listening to those words, I felt like my body is melting.

And when I noticed, I was in the forest.

…..

Body check.

My body…it moves freely.

There is no pain.

It is a healthy body.

Although there is no mirror, I know that I became younger from my hands and feet.

Early twenties?

No, late teens?

Anyway, there is no problem.

Clothes …… I am wearing clothes I’m not familiar with.

It looks like a villager that appears in fantasy games with my rough coat and pants.

Underwear is… a trunk bound by a string.

Anyway, it was nice not to be dead.

I wonder if this is one of the beginner’s pack that God said.

Next, I put out the all-purpose farming tool.

A hoe appears in the grasp of my hand.

Thank you, God.

Speaking of which, I have not heard of God ‘s name.

I don’t know who to pray to.

Well, the feeling of gratitude is what’s important.

Now.

I stand up and look around.

It’s a forest.

Even if I look at the front or back, all I see is a forest.

Even if I look at the left or right, all I see is a forest.

…

I’m hoping to be transferred to a place with few people… but this place has no people at all.

Mou.

What should I do?

Although I became healthy, in this situation, I’ll die.

First, water, then food.

Place to sleep after that.

It’s the basic of survival.

First of all, I’ll move to seek water…

I want to move but the trees are in the way.

No, I can move but I can’t see far because there are too many trees.

In addition, the trees are thick.

Their trunk diameters exceeds 1 meter.

And I feel that it’s the same everywhere.

The place where I am now is open for some reason but it is still not enough to see a far place.

I’ll probably get lost if I move.

Well, I just can’t come back here even if I’m lost…

Being troubled can’t be helped.

Anyway, water.

If I don’t look for water, I’ll die.

As for now…I’ll try to believe in my ears.

Is there a sound of flowing water somewhere?

….

It is useless.

I can hear only the sound of eerie wind and cry of a beast which seems to be dangerous.

Moreover, the cry of the beast felt like a scream.

That means … there are beasts attacking that beast.

Deep breath.

For the time being, I need to move one step forward.

I felt an awful sense of incongruity.

It is the feeling of taking a step on the ground.

The open ground earlier is not like the normal ground I know.

How can the trees grow in this stiff ground?

Not really stiff but hard.

Too hard.

The ground is so hard that it seems to be a piece of rock.

To think that great thick trees and tall grassess can grow roots in such a place.

The vitality of plants are impressive.

However, this hard ground is bad.

I don’t know much about my now younger body but my feet will hurt if I walk all the way on this hard ground.

The surprising hardness of this ground is unexpected.

And one more thing,

Can I farm in this hard land?

Maybe this forest has the only hard one and other places are all right.

…..

I set up my All Purpose Farming Tool in the form of a hoe and tried it down.

Success.

The blade of the hoe surprisingly entered deep into the ground without problem.

Pull out and repeat.

Sakusakusakusaku(SFX)

TN: Sakusaku is a sound effect for something crispy.

The ground is easily plowed.

Ooohh

This is fun.

Sakusakusakusaku…Ah

I thought that it was dangerous.

A thick tree root was lying on the way and I have swung down to it.

I was prepared for the shock to come in my arms but it did not come.

On the contrary, the response was still crispy.

Looking at it, the root was plowed.

The part that comes in contact with the hoe became sawdust.

No, not sawdust, but soil?

Looking at it, I feel like it would be a good fertilizer.

Let’s see……

I kept swinging the hoe as it is.

The root of the thick tree completely assimilated into the ground. The only thing that remained was the ground that was plowed.

Ooohh

And surprisingly, I’m not even tired.

Perhaps I won’t get tired while using this All Purpose Farming Tool?

As expected the a tool God gave.

Something flash on my mind.

If I move while plowing, will I get tired?

…..

It tried doing it.

I was right.

Thank you, God.

Since there are neither food nor water at the transition place, I thought that I was terribly neglected but it was thought of properly.

I continued plowing while thanking him again.

Anyway, I have to find a place where I can secure some drinking water.

Because I’m plowing while advancing, my movement speed is slow.

Moreover, I thought about the width that I should plow. The place where I plowed will be flattened so I thought that the width should be around 5 meters for visibility besides, I can plow without minding trees, I mean tree roots.

Therefore, I advanced around 50 meters in an hour.

Isn’t that dangerous?

I don’t know what time it is now, but what should I do when the sun goes down?

It’s good that I’m not tired but shouldn’t I be worried about my vision?

No, vision is important because a beast may come out of the forest.

Mou…..

God help me!

Suddenly relying on others is useless.

…..

I looked at the All Purpose Farming Tool in my hand.

It is in the form of a hoe.

It has an effect of turning the place it plowed to soil.

Speaking of which, it is said that it has other forms.

For instance…… Saw.

My All purpose Farming Tool became a saw so I tried it to a nearby tree.

No, saw is not the one that should be used to cut trees.

I transformed it into an ax and swing it to a nearby tree.

I cut the tree like tofu.

Ooohh

Moreover, unlike with the hoe, the tree remains a tree.

I thought so while looking at the falling tree.

What I should do is not to look for water but to utilize this all purpose farming tool.

For instance……

I transformed the all purpose farming tool into a drill and pressed it against the 10 meter wide trunk of a gigantic tree.

The drill punctures the trunk of of the gigantic tree.

Within five minutes, I created a four meters square, 2 meters high space inside which is 1 meter from the entrance.

//Can’t imagine? Here is an image from the manga//

Because the inside was rind, I transformed the All Purpose Farming Tool into a file.

Rubbing the file once is enough to level and smoothen it.

I threw away the the small pieces of woods outside while thinking that it looks like a huge squirrel nest. With This, I secured a place to sleep.

Next, water……

I turned the All-purpose farming tool to a shovel and dug the ground.

Rather than searching for a river, I dig a well.

If you think about it, finding a river would be better because digging a well needs an overwhelming labor but in my case, I have the all purpose farming tool.

I can dig it fast.

Digging digging.

Straight down.

….

After digging about 5 meters, it become impossible to take out the dug soil.

After that, I wondered how I would get out of the hole.

I need to dig diagonally to get out.

No, wait.

A vertical hole.

What about oxygen?

Dangerous, I could die.

I panicked and dug up a hole diagonally to escape.

Reflecting.

Next, I dug while thinking about air passage.

Basic, slanted digging.

I dig air holes from time to time to secure oxygen.

The most important thing it that there should be air flow.

This is different from what I imagined of a well but there will be no problem if I keep digging like this to the bottom.

The water came out in the estimated depth of about ten meters.

All right.

Right on target.

Moreover, because the ground is hard, the water flows from the side of the hole like a springwater and begins to accumulate at the bottom of the hole.

Can I drink it….

There is no choice but to drink it.

For the time being, I won’t drink it immediately and leave it for a while.

Because I’m using the All Purpose Farming Tool, I’m not thirsty yet even if it’s a truly hard ground. The water is dirty because I just dug it.

With this, I have a place to sleep and although uncertain, have a water source.

Now, it’s food…

Should I aim from the source of the beast voice I heard from the forest?

Impossible.

I’ve never hunted.

In addition, the sun begins to set.

….what!

I forgot the fire.

How do I make fire?

Rubbing woods?

For an amateur like me, it won’t go well.

All-purpose farming tool…… LAMP?

LIGHT, ELECTRIC LIGHT….it’s useless.

It doesn’t change.

The all purpose farming tool, like what its name indicates, only transforms into farming tools.

Well, it is questionable to call a file and a drill farming tools.

However, it transformed to it.

It also became scissors and spoon.

However, I imagined a chainsaw to cut trees but it was useless.

Motors and electric grass cutters etc were no good too.

Machine related things are no good…with this, I assume that those having a few parts are okay.

So, a tool that creates fire.

…..

Magnifying glass!

Success!

I can make fire with this!

Before it gets dark…

…..

I gave up and crawl to the tree hole I made as a sleeping quarters and decide to transform the all purpose farming too into a knife to make accessories until the day rose.

For now, glass, plate, and tray.

And, knife, fork, and chopsticks.

I used the tree I cut down with the ax earlier as the material.

While I was using the all purpose farming tool, I did not feel thirsty, I did not feel hungry and I did not feel sleepy either.

However, since there is no fire, I made those under the moonlight.

This is truly a different world.

There are two moons.

The All-Purpose Farming Tool is a tool that can transform.

And I can freely put it in and out.

While using it, my throat doesn’t get thirsty, my belly doesn’t feel hungry, and I don’t feel sleepy at all.

However, is there a limit in using it?

For example, if I transform the All-purpose farming tool into a hoe then swing it on the ground, what will happen if I don’t pull it out?

In other words, it can be said that I should continuously swing the hoe.

This is the same with most tools.

But, for example, I hit a post with a hammer.

While I’m striking the post, it can be said that I’m using it but if I move from that post to another, I’m not using it.

When I’m making small items with the All purpose farming tool knife form, it is exerting its effect while I’m working with it but it doesn’t exert its effect after I finished it and move to the next article.

Even if those are just a moment, it will be a considerable amount since it stacks up.

In other words, right now, I’m thirsty, hungry, and sleepy.

After bathing in the morning sun, I went to the diagonal hole well I had dug yesterday. I took out the wood cup I made with the knife when I stand vigil until the morning.

Because the depth was about 1 meter, I draw water from the clean upper stratum as much as possible…

I can drink it.

I should be able to drink it.

I have no choice but to drink here because I am thirsty.

A man should be courageous.

I tilted the cup a little and try putting some in my mouth.

I am surprised that it doesn’t taste strange.

I think that it is an ordinary water.

I want to think it is.

Because I’m thirsty.

I resolved myself and drink it,

Delicious.

Later… If I won’t have a stomach ache, then there is no problem…

I have no choice but to wait for the passage of time.

Next is food.

Before that, I need to confirm the current situation.

I made a place to sleep on the trunk of a large tree.

The surrounding soil has become soft because I plowed it with the hoe.

I dug a diagonal well in a place slightly away from my place to sleep.

And, there is the five-meter wide road I plowed from the place I was transported to.

I didn’t mean to do that but the road is visible.

The distance might be about one hundred meters.

On my hand are the All purpose farming tool and the small items I created when I didn’t sleep.

The small items I made are cups and plates that were created by shaving wood.

Because I made it overnight, a moderate amount was made.

UwU.

For now, I need to move around while swinging the hoe and look for something to eat.

A nut tree is ideal.

I would be happy if I’ll find apples or grapes.

Then, I immediately thought, I should lit a fire first.

I will not repeat yesterday’s failure.

I collect the wood chips which came from the time I was making the small room in the tree to sleep on. I transformed the all-purpose farming tool into a magnifying glass to ignite it.

Then, stabilize the fire by adding dry woods.

It took more time than I expected but I managed to secure the fire.

I was able to do it but… I’m scared to leave.

I’ll be in trouble if it caused a wildfire.

Because of that, food search is done in the range where I can see the fire.

In other words, I will plow the surroundings to expand my place.

I worked hard.

I continued using the hoe to expand the place with the tree I’ll sleep on as the center.

I worked too hard.

I expanded my space around 200 meters from the tree I made a place to sleep in.

After all, using hoe is fun.

On the way, I thought that I would have wood problems if I turn all the trees to fertilizer so I cut down the trees using all-purpose farming tool ax form.

I discovered it that time. Something like a crowbar to hook the trees…It seems that I can transform the all-purpose farming tool with just image even without knowing the name.

It was possible for me to move the trees with the crowbar without feeling the weight of the tree.

The all-purpose farming tool is convenient.

In the back of the tree where I’ll sleep in is a large tree of about 1 to 2 meters diameter.

With that, I won’t be troubled with woods.

Thanks to that, my searching for food completely went off my head…

Good luck or bad luck? Something happened.

When I was plowing the surroundings, an animal appeared to the place where I shook the hoe.

The animal looked like a rabbit.

However, the size is about the size of a medium size dog. Its eyes are showing hostility and although a rabbit, it has two long fangs on the edge of its mouth like a saber tooth tiger….Isn’t this a rodent?

In any case, I was not able to stop the hoe from hitting the rabbit when I swung it down.

It was done in with a single blow.

The hoe hit the neck of the rabbit that is bending forward. Then a crispy sound…

The part from the neck to the top became fertilizer but the body remained.

….

I was shocked from robbing the life of a living thing but my belly is honest.

I got the food I wanted.

Pray.

Let’s eat.

I transformed the all-purpose farming tool to a knife and dismantle it.

Even if I say dismantle, I don’t know how to dismantle it. I cut the fur.

However, I panicked when I notice the internal organs in the middle of it.

I don’t think that it’s good to throw the internal organs.

Apart from the heart and liver, the things that the rabbit ate are in its stomach and intestines.

Thinking about how it shows hostility to me and thinking about its fangs, it doesn’t seem to be the type to eat grass. There is no way it eats grass.

Yeah, the intestines are not long as I thought so it’s carnivorous.

I worked hard removing it while avoiding damaging it and throws it away.

After that, I took off the fur.

I was able to turn the all-purpose farming tool into a frying pan but I gave up using it since I don’t want to put it over the fire.

After cutting the meat to small bite size cut, I skewer them into a wooden stick and hangs it to the fire.

I’ll barbeque it this time.

After this, I’ll process a stone and make it into a stone plate.

I can afford to do that because I was able to secure food.

I thought about it in various ways.

Because I’m currently eating the burnt meat.

Not good.

But it can only be said as natural because I grilled the meat with fire.

There is no seasoning.

But this is at least edible.

I only tasted hospital food for a long time because I was hospitalized for nearly ten years.

The last one was an intravenous feeding.

Thinking about it, this is a meat dish I cooked myself.

I became teary.

There is no reason not to eat this.

….

No matter how much I revise it, the result is a burnt bloody meat.

I can’t deceive myself.

Kuh.

I must do something about the food.

Renewing my desire, I ate it for the time being.

Still, there’s only a little food remains.

To make it not rot, I need a cold place…

I can only think of a well but I would like to use something as clean as possible.

Since there is no other method, I decided to grill them all to preserve it.

It seems that the meat will become hard you grill them but it is better than leaving them raw.

After that, I plow the internal organs and the fur with the hoe form of the all-purpose farming tool to turn them into fertilizer.

My stomach is still not painful so I judged the water of the well to be safe.

For the time being, my belly has swollen.
