Interdimensional Farming in Another World

When life closes one door, it opens another. That summarises Alex's life till now.

Before returning to the village of the stone head tribe, he had no way of acquiring a tier 3 magical beast. But now, with the help of Kalina. He could do that easily. Thus, he could improve his farm and try some quirky ideas.

And the most important of them is trying to plant seeds from the current world.

He tried doing it before, but it didn't work. The reason might have something to do with the availability of mysterious energy inside the interdimensional farm.

That problem can be solved with fertiliser from the tier 3 magic beast. Or that's what Alex thinks.

Alex woke up early.

It was about six in the morning. The sun had yet to rise and it was snowing outside. He opened the door and went outside to look around. And his gaze landed on the tiny snow crystals that were accumulating on his clothes.

The crystals were tiny with each having distinct patterns. He felt like each crystal had its own personality and unique disposition.

The snow never ceases to amaze Alex.

After a moment, he dusted off the snow from his clothes and added firewood to the heater. The early mornings were the coldest time of the day. He needs to add firewood to maintain the in-floor heating and the warm water for the bathroom.

After that, he went inside the house to cook some food. It was nothing much. Alex made a simple vegetable soup and rice. He also made some omelette to go with it.

It was time to wake up his bodyguard.

Knocking on the door of Kalina's room, Alex asked.

"Are you alive?" The tactless Alex wanted his bodyguard to wake up and prepare for the hunt. He had a lot to do today. The earlier he could get his hands on some tier 3 beast, the better he would feel.

Suddenly, Alex heard a groan from the room. It seemed like a zombie was inside the room.

"Thud, thud…" The footsteps came closer to the door.

Slowly the door creaked open. From the gaps in the partially opened door, Alex saw a dishevelled Kalina.

'It is a zombie! No, it's a ghost.' He concluded.

With messy hair and clothes, Kalina gazed at Alex. Her eyes were spitting fire, ready to disintegrate Alex at a moment's notice. If he said some bullsh*t, she would turn him into dust.

From her eyes, Alex gauged how important sleep was for the princess.

"Hm…The breakfast is ready." He was about to inform her of the hunt. However, he suddenly changed his words and said with slight caution. He didn't want a tier 4 warrior rampaging inside his house.

"Hm…" After nodding once, Kalina went into the room. Quickly fixing her clothes, she came out looking like a living person. She did not look like a zombie anymore.

"What is it?" She expectantly asked Alex. After tasting the dinner, she understood why her sisters said the food Alex cooks is the best. So, she had great expectations about the breakfast.

"Yesterday, we ate oily and greasy food. So, I made some light soup and rice. It would be best to eat it as soon as you can."

"Okay! Prepare a serving and wait for me." Leaving behind those words, Kalina went to the bathroom.

—-----

"Have some warm milk." Giving Kalina a cup of warm milk, Alex sat down on his chair. The breakfast was nothing special, but Kalina was engrossed in it, enjoying each bite.

So, Alex ate his portion in silence.

It didn't take too long for them to finish their meal.

"About the hunt, I didn't forget." After eating her fill, Kalina said. By Alex's principle of equivalent exchange. She needs to pay for the service she receives. She didn't forget about that.

"Ha ha…" Alex grinned like a fool.

"I know just the thing to hunt today. A tier 3 giant mammoth would be a great source of food. How about we go after that?"

"If it's what you want. I don't mind. However, I want to talk to you about why I came here to meet you. And why I need your help. Can you listen to what I have to say?"

"Certainly, we can talk while we travel."

—-----

In the mountains of the north, Alex and Kalina could be seen walking side by side. They were having a serious conversation.

"Are you telling me that you need someone who can use teleport skills to infiltrate the city of the thousand-headed serpent tribe? Are you serious? Why would I want to make one of the nine great tribes into my enemy?" Alex expressed his disapproval.

From his position as a nobody trying to survive in a different world, it was better to completely ignore Kalina's plea for help.

"Why me? Space is the domain of the void fish tribe. They would have enough people who can use teleport. Are they not willing to help you?"

"No, I can't ask them. We cannot be sure of their allegiance. We also don't know if there are spies inside their tribe." Kalina said firmly.

Her decision to meet Alex was approved by the matriarch after careful thought. The matriarch believed that Alex was not a spy. And that gave her enough confidence in the young adult.

Even though he was physically weak, he dared to stand against the first elder without batting an eyelid. And his relationship with the primal chaos tribe and the ability to use space skills made him the best candidate to help her. There was no one better she could find.

"If you are afraid of the thousand-head serpent tribe, don't be. We are going there to investigate a group of people before. Not to brawl with them in the open. It has nothing to do with the thousand-head serpent tribe. If we are careful, they wouldn't even know of our presence. And for your hard work, the ice phoenix tribe will give you ample reward." Kalina said.

She displayed sound reasoning while trying to convince Alex. Yet, he was not buying it. He was still not convinced about why he should help them.

The theft of Blue Gem was something they should care about. It had nothing to do with him. They almost tried to pin blame on him. Yet they want his help. Ice phoenix tribe was acting shamelessly.

"Your tribe, the primal chaos tribe has the same goal…"

"What?" Suddenly, Alex focused his attention on Kalina.

'What primal chaos? I am from the stone head tribe. Why is she mentioning some other tribe? I know I am different from the other people in the stone head tribe. My spirit guardian is not the stone giant. Does she know what my spirit guardian is…' A plethora of thoughts appeared in Alex's consciousness.

"What goal?" Quickly hiding his surprise, Alex asked.

"To prevent the awakening of the demon sealed in the north. We both have the same purpose. Although your tribe is reclusive and scattered across the continent. They pay close attention to what's happening to the seal. It is reasonable to believe that they already know what happened here. Do you not know about it?" Kalina asked doubtfully.

She assumed that Alex knew information about what was happening. But it seems like that was not the case. He doesn't know it.
