[You are in a world known as the continent of Farel, in the human kingdom of Byers.]
Your name is Al Wayne, the child of a farmer, who was just like any other person at birth.
As the first new life in this family, your parents see you as their hope.
They will do their best to take care of you, nurture you, and think about how to give you a bright future.
However, it wasn't long before they discovered a problem: you had more energy than other children, you were developing faster, and you had an exceptionally large appetite.
"Karl, hurry up and bring the porridge over. El is hungry again; the child wants to eat."
"Here it comes, here it comes! My goodness, isn't our child a little too exaggerated?"
I asked Aunt Susan next door, and she said that most babies at this age are still drinking milk.
Our El is different; at this age, he can drink porridge or even eat vegetables..."
Al Wayne's father, Carl Wayne, brought a bowl of perfectly warm porridge to the crying child. The child stopped crying the moment he smelled the aroma of the food.
They just stared wide-eyed, eagerly waiting for the food to be put into their mouths.
"Okay, okay, Little El, can you stop looking at me like that? I can't take it anymore."
"Here, you can have it all. If we're only considering staple foods, your appetite is more than half of ours..."
Carl Wayne sighed, thankfully their land wasn't small, and with the crops yielding good harvests these days, they could at least afford to feed a child who could eat.
Although your appetite is indeed somewhat excessive, frighteningly large, there are no other abnormalities, and no one seems to think there's anything wrong with you.
[Entry: "You are what you eat" triggers the concept that consistent, long-term intake of staple foods can slightly improve your physical condition and accelerate development.]
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, you, Al Wayne, have turned five.
"El, do you want to go fishing by the river? It seems like the fish are migrating back now, and they're especially fat."
Several children, around seven or eight years old, came up to another child, holding fishing rods and harpoons.
"No, I'm going to go into the woods to see if there's any prey there, and maybe I can cook some dishes or something."
"Alright then, we were thinking of having you grill fish for us, your cooking skills are truly amazing."
By the way, I heard from the sheriff who came to the village a few days ago that it's currently the monster's active season, so the forest might not be very safe.
"Don't worry, I'll run away if I can't beat them. And the sword in my hand isn't fake."
Al Wayne held an iron sword, but it was actually a relatively long dagger, given his size.
"Monster activity period? I've eaten so many kinds of fish and rabbits over the years, I want to change things up."
I wonder what this so-called monster tastes like?
He licked his lips, El waiting expectantly.
Because of his love for food and cooking, he often reads books and learns about the world he lives in.
On the continent of Farel, the Byers Empire is a kingdom of humans, but humans are not the only race that exists here.
Elves, dwarves, dragons, orcs, and, most uniquely, a group of beings...
"The demon race has even greater individual differences than the orcs. They are bizarre and strange life forms, and there are also some branches that have been corrupted and modified from other races."
The demons on the continent, if classified by race, could also be considered part of the demon race.
They were a disorganized entity, but they were brought together by the supreme individual known as the Demon King.
