They say civilization started because of alcohol. In the Great Tree Village's case, it instigate a misunderstanding between dragons.

Summary
Initially the Beastmen believed they will be treated horrible, however as that isn't the case, they get used to the life in the village quite fast. Hiraku notices that Sena uses magic and guesses that everyone can use it except him. She tries to comfort him and explain that the Beastmen kids still can't use and they can learn together, but Hiraku knows that one day they will easily surpass him.

Hiraku harvest some apples, but hears some noise nearby the village and the ground shakes. Gran Maria quickly report that a grappling bear and a bloody viper are fighting in the northern area of the forest. Hiraku wonders if they can eat the bear meat and asks Gran Maria to take him see the monsters. When they reach them, Gran Maria suggest they go back and think of a plan, however, Hiraku requests that she drops him down. As she leaves him, he attacks the monster and kills them with a single blow. The killer angels then look at the defeated monsters and state how impressive is Hiraku as they couldn't take down such monster with one attack. After that, Hiraku decides to cook the bear with some wine and makes wine braised grappler bear dish, but finds it quite gamey. The girls are shocked that he used their precious wine, but he explains that cooking with wine is normal. He fry the viper and ends up enjoying it more as it takes like fried chicken.

Since the viper taste like chicken, Hiraku wants to try something. He goes to Flora and asks her if she has something like an anti-bacterial agent. He explains that he needs something that can kill microorganisms and will prevent stomach aches or illness. Flora then offers him a potion, explaining that it will blow up everything. Hiraku asks for something weaker and she gives him another potion. Hiraku also wonders how the miso production is coming along and Flora explains that she has no progress. She did what he told her, but she didn't notice any fermentation and used a potion that blow up her house, three times already. Hiraku suggest that they can try again.

The next day, Hiraku gather some chicken eggs. He then adds salt and vinegar. After mixing it, he adds some oil and gets mayonnaise, which will go perfect with the fried viper. Hiraku then proceeds with the miso, and start by simmering the soybeans he and Flora soaked in water. Next, they grind them and he uses the almighty tool to add koji mold. They form balls and pack it into barrels and leave for a few months. Ru then calls Hiraku, informing him they have visitors.

The visitors are a few elder dwarfs led by Donovan, who heard that they have high quality alcohol and wish they share some with them. The girls explain that they can't give it for free. Donovan states they don't have money, but have technology. They have spend their lives studying alcohol production, and seeing the fine crops they have, they can help them turn them into fine alcohol. Hearing that, the girls quickly agree. The dwarfs then use distillation and make corn whiskey. Eventually Donovan and his men remained in the village and worked as the village brewers. Later, the village has a welcoming celebration for the beastmen and dwarfs. Hiraku realizes that finally some men joined and asks Donovan if some girl catches his eye. Donovan then explains that the girls are too young for him and if they can't grow a beard, they are not for him.

One day, Hiraku sees a dragon approaching. As it doesn't look peaceful, he prepares for a fight. Doraim then shows up and stops the dragon. As the two dragons stare each other, a third appears, which looks even scarier. Hiraku then throws his spear, but the dragon manages to dodge in the last moment. Guchi then stops Hiraku, explaining that they are not enemies and are not fighting. As the dragons land and transform into human forms, Guchi explains that the two other are Doraim's wife, Graffaloon, and daughter, Lastismoon. As Doraim constantly sneaks out to come to the village, his wife and daughter thought he may be cheating, as he always takes something from the treasury and returns in the morning. Hiraku had built Doraim a house there, so that he doesn't need to go home drunk, but guesses that was a bad idea now. Doraim tries to explain this is all high-level politics, but the women are sure he is hiding something. Doraim explains that he has no courage for an affair and the women agree on that. Hiraku apologizes for earlier, but Doraim makes his family apologize as well. Lastismoon then apologizes for almost burning the village down, and Graffaloon apologizes for the thought of obliterating the man who pointed a spear at his daughter. Hiraku is glad that things are sorted out and leaves. Doraim then asks his wife and daughter if they understand what he is doing and Graffaloon confirms, noting that while they have small numbers, they have the power to challenge them, which is something she didn't expect to see ever. Lastismoon also notes that Graffaloon couldn't defend against that attack and had to avoid it. Graffaloon explains that was mainly thanks to the spider who pulled her out and is an old friend of hers. If he didn't pull her out, she won't have been alive. Graffaloon then tells Lastismoon to live in this village and make sure that this power is never turned against them.

Hiraku agrees with Lastimoon living there and she quickly starts helping them with the work, however, as she is a dragon and is too strong, she would often break anything he touches. Hiraku wonders what to do with her as Doraim asked him to give her some work. He then notices that the wolves are scared and Tia states its not just the wolves, but the chickens and cows as well. She explains that the dragons aren't just powerful, but they have wisdom and knowledge too. Hiraku then gets an idea and sends Lastismoon to handle the diplomatic relations with Beezel, who is shocked to see a dragon. She wonders what he wants and Beezel barely explains that he wants more fruits like the ones they got last time. Lastismoon states that they are low on oranges, but they have strawberries. Scared, Beezel decides to take ten boxes. She also suggests some apples, pears, persimmons and watermelons, and Beezel takes them too. Beezel reports back that they have a dragon now. While it may be risky, they decide to send a spy.

Beezel calls his daughter, Flowrem and explains that he wants her to investigate the village military might. Flowrem goes to the village and is welcomed by Lastismoon, who takes her around. However, while showing her around, Lastismoon is informed they spotted a messenger from Howling Village and she decides to leave Flowrem to look around by herself. Flowrem then goes around and sees all the races. Normally she would expect Lastismoon to command them all, but she heard that there is someone above her who rules everyone. She ends up seeing, Hiraku, but as he is just a human, she ignores him. After meeting up with Lastismoon again, she explains that Hiraku is the mayor. Flowrem can't believe a human is commanding them all, but Lastismoon explains that he is strong enough to defeat her mother. Flowrem then starts to worry as not only she didn't say hello, she was quite rude to him. Hiraku heard that Flowrem is Beezel's daughter and that she will be staying for a while. He sees that she is getting along with Lastismoon, but the moment he shows up, Flowrem starts acting quite stiff and awkward.
