As I chat with uncle Wang during the ride and Xiao Bing is asleep, uncle Wang realised that while my cooking is so delicious, my knowledge of this world is very low.

"The planet we are on is called earth, it have a diameter of 1200k kilometers. Earth is only have about 40% land and the rest is water. The land is divided into 7 continents, in each continent there will be a kingdom and within each kingdoms there are 12 cities. The kingdom of the 1st continent is the celestial dragon kingdom which is the strongest of all kingdoms. The kingdom of the 2nd continent is the rising phoenix kingdom who's military strength is lower than the celestial dragon kingdom but are much wealthier. Thus making them just slightly weaker than the celestial dragon kingdom. For the kingdoms for the 3rd continent to the 5th continent, the power is similar. They are the golden ape kingdom, white snake kingdom and the heaven's dog kingdom. The tiny dog city is one of the cities within the heaven's dog kingdom."

"The last two continents are not part of the human force alliance. The human force alliance is the alliance between the kingdoms of the 1st to 5th continent. The kingdom of the 6th continent is the Poison master kingdom and the kingdom of the 7th continent is the beast kingdom. The beast kingdom is ruled by grade s monsters. When a monster is grade b and above, their intelligence can be compared to humans. At grade b, they have the intelligence of a child. At grade a, they have the intelligence of a young adult and at grade s, their intelligence is not interior to an adult human's. The human force alliance have been fighting the beast kingdom for thousands of years already."

"As for the poison master kingdom, even though they only have one kingdom and no cities under them, they are a neutral fraction so both sides don't dare to attack them. If they were to side with either side, the stalemate will be broken."

"I see..." I frowned as I think to myself "this planet is also called Earth but it is a hundred times bigger in diameter. This world is much larger than I expected."

"Since you have been cooking for us throughout this journey, I shall give you this book." Wang Zhi Qiang said as he took out a large book which is 50 by 30 cm and weighs about 25 kg.

"This book is the latest edition of the discovery channel. the book contains all of the monsters and plants known by mankind. This book is extremely useful to adventurers but I believe it is equally or if not more use to a chef like you." Wang Zhi Qiang said with a grin.

"Thanks uncle Wang." I accepted the book without any hesitation because I need the book.

"In one more day and we will reach tiny dog city. We shall set up a tent here to rest since it's late."

"Okay, you guys set up the tent, I shall go and cook dinner for us." I said. This journey took 28 days and over the days, we hunted a few wild monsters to eat. With uncle Wang who is a low leveled grade c fighter, he monsters he caught are normally grade e. "Hmmm, what should I cook today?" I wondered as I set up a campfire. When I look at my storage bag, I found the corpse of the rabbit I hunted for myself but still haven't eaten it. "Ohh" during this trip, all I caught was a few harmless rabbits. " I guess it's rabbits then."

After the fire has been set up, I took out a large pot from the carriage and placed it above a small portable stove that uncle Wang uses when he travel. I poured some beef oil and put the sliced onions into the pot when the oil got hot. The fire is small as I did not want the onions to burn. The onions were sautéed. Looking at the onions which has turned golden brown from caramelizing, I added in water and as I waited for it to boil, I put a pan on the fire I settled up. Once the oil was hot enough, I placed the chopped up pieces of rabbit meat onto the pan. Together with the sizzling of the pan, the sweet fragrance of the onions captured Wang Zhi Qiang and Xiao Bings's attention. When the water started boiling, I poured the pan fried rabbit meat into the pot together with some vegetables, mushrooms and carrots. I placed the lid on and brought the broth to a simmer. I then reduced the heat.

We sat around the campfire and talked with one another. Occasionally, I would go to the stove to stir. After a long wait, the stew was finally done. I scooped a bowl of stew for each of us, each with a generous amount of fillings. As I pass the bowl to them, they look at me in confusion as they had never seen soup so thick before. "Rabbit stew, don't ask, just try." I said confidently as I took a piece of meat with my chopsticks and ate it.

"I've been in this world for a month now but even now, the quality of the meat still surprises me. Only the highest quality meat can barely compare to this piece of meat. The texture, juiciness, flavour and smell is almost full marks." I thought to myself. While I ate my stew slowly, Wang Zhi Qiang and Xiao Bing ate as if they have been starved for days. Especially Xiao Bing, her whole face is covered in stew.

"Eat slowly, don't choke." I said as I pass a box of tissues to them.

"hmmm, this stew, even a grade f meat can taste like a grade b meat in your hands." Wang Zhi Qiang said while wiping his lips.

"Uncle, you have tried a grade b meat before?" I asked curiously.

"Haahha that's right, one time one of the man I befriended took out a piece of giant spiked turtle meat and shared it with me." uncle Wang said proudly.

"Big brother Ren, I don't feel that the stew is enough." Xiao Bing said as she looks at me excitedly as if I can magically make a food appear out for nowhere.

It was only now that I remembered that we brought some bread from one of the villages we stopped at. "That's right!" I suddenly shouted and stood up which surprised Wang Zhi Qiang and Xiao Bing and I went to the carriage and took out a long loaf of bread. I proceeded to cut out 3 pieces of about 6 cm each and told them to tear off a little and dip them in the stew. The bread crust is extremely hard to bite but the middle of the bread is soft. When dipped into the stew, the bread absorbs the stew. Since the stew is still smoking hot, the cold bread became warm.

As nightfalls, we went to sleep. We didn't have to worry about wild monsters because the strongest monster in this area is only a grade d monster. With uncle Wang's aura, the monsters won't dare to attack us.
