Interdimensional Farming in Another World

The space-bind skill that Taka used worked perfectly without a problem.

So, no more persuasion was needed for the group to follow Alex's will. They exited the prison promptly. With Alex's skill, he would have no trouble teleporting out of the prison. They recognised this fact.

While that was happening, Alex was messing around with the space-sealing rune formation.

Suddenly, A person appeared near him, breaking his concentration. He closely observed the person standing before him. It was the same black-robed man that tortured him inside the prison.

The man was angry. His facial muscles contorted into a grim smile. If glare could have killed, Alex would have died ten thousand times.

"Sorry about that! I accidentally broke the mana stabilising formation around the energy core. I was hoping to blow it up. This is such a letdown." Alex said while stealing a furtive glance at the malfunctioning rune formation. Sarcasm oozed from his words.

He was trying to create a mana feedback loop inside the rune formation and make it burst like a balloon by sending more energy than it can handle. But before he could do it, he seems to have somehow destroyed the mana-stabilising part of the formation. Alex was thrilled by the outcome even though it was an unintended one. The only thing he regretted was his inability to destroy the entire formation.

"How did you get here? No one other than me knows about his room. What trickery did you use?" The grim voice from the black-robed man inquired.

'I would like to explain how I used the smoke screen to scan the entire prison. But I don't want to.'

So, Alex ignored the question.

"Sir, I am slightly offended by your implication. I was always good at breaking things. I don't need to use trickery for something this insignificant." Holding his head high in a haughty manner, Alex explained. He didn't want any misunderstandings to form between him and his mortal enemy.

"In fact, I wish I had done something cool."

The black-robed man was unwilling to take any more bullshit from Alex. Focusing mana in his hand, he began to form a purple fireball in his hand. It was tiny, but the energy it was radiating was enormous.

Alex felt the threat of death from it.

"Wow! Wow! Wow! Cool down for a second. We have yet to introduce ourselves properly. Dear grandson, I am your grandfather. But you can call me Granddaddy if you…" Before he could complete his words, A purple ball of fire blitzed past him.

Thankfully, his quick thinking helped him dodge it by a hair's breadth.

"Oh! You are a feisty one. I think I was mistaken. With your personality, I don't think you have a father, much less a grandaddy as cool as me.

"Anyway, Sayonara b*tch. You will see me again soon. So, don't forget me." Giving a pleasant goodbye, Alex teleported out. He completed his purpose and it was time to leave. Besides that, he was low on energy.

Outside the prison.

A group of people appeared before the escaping prisoners. Among them were the first elder and the warriors of the ice phoenix tribe.

The first elder was panicking seeing the prisoners escape left and right. Fortunately for him, the princess and the people who knew his secret were still trapped in the centre.

Growling at his subordinates for not securing the prisoners, he dashed forward. He was not going to allow anyone to escape. Even if it meant a bloodbath.

"Kill them all, don't let them escape." Any person that knows his identity and relationship with the evil organisation was future trouble. It was better to get rid of them before they become a nuisance.

"You dare," Kalina shouted while running towards the first elder. She was going to use this chance to eradicate the first elder and his minions for good. She had enough of waiting patiently to take action.

"First elder, you white-haired old codger who looks like a wet mop. Do you dare to fight me?" Kalina challenged him to a duel.

As a tier 4 warrior, she was more than strong enough to challenge him. The only thing she lacked was fighting experience. But with her talent, she closed that gap.

'A wet mop! This brat!' The incensed first elder thrust his fist forward creating a large ice spear to shoot out from his hand. It accurately moved towards Kalina to slow her down.

Kalina used her forearm to deflect the spear to a side. But before she could think, it broke apart revealing a small artefact inside it.

"Watch out, it is an explosion rune," Ethan called out.

But before she could react, an explosion enveloped her. The first elder who saw this smirked. His lips curved into a cunning smile while he softly kneaded his bearded chin.

"Urh…" Grunting, Kalina jumped away from the explosion. The weapons from the West were unpredictable and dangerous. She didn't think she would fall victim to them this soon. But it was not enough to take her down.

Even the first elder knew that. He was just testing the new things he got his hands on.

"Cough…Cough…" After escaping from the smoke, Kalina took a cautious approach to fight. She didn't rush forward like in the past. The first elder was scheming something, she knew by instinct.

As she expected, lackeys of the first elder surrounded her.

'The coward was trying to use his lackeys to exhaust me.' She thought as she dodged the lackeys and the explosive runes that they threw.

But it didn't matter. A cheap trick like that wouldn't matter much. After all, she had allies to help her.

Taka and Ethan entered the battle with her. They kept the other enemies from affecting her.

"Your tricks won't work anymore First Elder. You and your minion will die here, right now." Chasing after him, Kalina said with determination.

Channelling the energy inside her body, she began to draw out her strongest skill. The special skill of a tier 4 warrior, Spirit guardian possession.

"Boom." An energy wave disseminated outwards from her body creating a whirlwind around her. Kalina had begun to shine in a blue hue.

The humidity in the air condensed around her creating a thick vapour cover, which quickly turned to tiny specs of snow. The energy she was radiating was beginning to freeze everything around her.

Slowly, she floated above the ground. Thin icy wings emerged behind her shocking the observers. All that happened relatively fast without giving anyone time to think.

Instead of a ragged person fighting desperately for survival, Kalina had turned into a divine being. Just the energy radiating from her was making the weaker warrior from the ice phoenix feel like submitting to her.

Now, she was finally showing her magnificence as a tier 4 warrior, as a princess from one of the nine great tribes.

"BOOM!" A thunderous sonic boom shocked the environment as she chased after the first elder.

And the first elder who saw this was startled by the preposterous situation. Spirit guardian possession was the last straw of a tier 4 warrior.

If a battle forced a tier 4 warrior to use spirit guardian possession, it only meant one thing. They were willing to die in that battle. After all, spirit guardian possession was just a temporary elevation in fighting prowess. And as a side effect of using this skill, it will also put the user in a weakened state for hours or even days.

So, The first elder was shocked by Kalina's resolve.

'The crazy b*tch is willing to sacrifice herself to kill me!' He exclaimed while running away.

The first elder was a coward that gained happiness by exploiting the weak. So, he prioritised the safety of his life more than anything. So, it was not shocking to see him run away.

But in his normal state, the first elder was slower than Kalina. She quickly caught up to him. She was just inches away from grabbing him.

Suddenly the first elder jumped up. Like a rocket, he rose into the sky while dodging Kalina.

And Kalina, who had to stop abruptly slid forward.

With a smile, the first elder took out something from his clothes. It was a rune device, a detonator for the explosives he placed around the battlefield. And now, Kalina was standing just above the trap.

He had deliberately led her into the trap!

He smirked knowing what was about to happen. Even while in the spirit guardian possession state, she wouldn't escape unscathed. He thought while activating the device.

"Silence….." Instead of the thunderous eruption that he had expected, A heavy silence greeted the first elder.

What happened?

Why didn't the trap work?

He had carefully laid out the explosive on the battlefield to use at a critical moment. He was hoping to injure Kalina with it. And yet why did it work?

The first elder stood shellshocked, unwilling to believe that he had failed.

Suddenly a voice came from near him. A familiar voice.

"Thank you for donating the rune explosives." The mocking voice said.
