Interdimensional Farming in Another World

Alex was thrilled to plant mushrooms on his farm. Even though he didn't know the exact properties of the golden mushroom, just the proposition of money made it worth his effort.

But, everything comes at a price.

Just as he was about to jump in happiness, the farm showed him the time required for the golden mushrooms to mature.

[Golden mushrooms will mature in 30 years. To increase the growth rate, please use tier 3 and above materials as fertiliser.]

'The farm was extra helpful after levelling up. It even knows how to give important information without asking for it. Very nice job. Even though I would live much better without knowing that.'

'Should I call this a good thing or a bad thing?'

'Due to the rate at which time changes in the farm, thirty years would be shortened to four months. And with tier 3 materials, I can make fertiliser to enhance the growth rate. But even then, I could have made a lot more if I had planted spices in the space the mushrooms were occupying. 30 years of spices in seven unit area would be a lot.'

'Sigh, Life is hard. It's friggin hard to make money.'

'I don't think I have time or space to waste anymore. I should upgrade the farm asap.' Alex decided after careful thinking.

Magical plants like the golden mushroom were taking up a lot of time, effort, FP and space to grow. Until he finds more tier 3 materials he can use as fertiliser, Alex decided not to plant them anymore.

Still, as a backup, he was planning to use the materials from the tier 3 four-tusked mammoth as the fertiliser.

After that, he sold all the excess materials in his warehouse and made 10000 FP. It was time to level up the farm again.

Using the 10000 FP, he bought 100 more units of land.

[Ding, Farm level 4 achieved.]

[Uprage commencing.]

[New feature, teleport point unlocked.]

[Teleport point will enable the user to mark a location and teleport there. The number of teleport points will correspond to the farm level. Each teleport point will cost 10000 FP to deploy. And each teleportation will cost 5000FP. The maximum distance you can travel with the teleport point feature is 5000 Kilometers at a time.]

[Congrates, the first teleport point is free to deploy.]

'Well, that's good. Even if I have to pay a King's ransom, the ability to teleport 5000 km away is good. But should have called it fast travel, what kind of lame name is teleport point.'

Alex thought while looking at the notification. Even though he wanted to test out the feature, he didn't have enough FP to randomly teleport. He decided to do it after becoming rich.

With 400 units of land, he could cultivate a lot more land. This meant the profit will increase and he will get more FP.

'About the first, teleport point. I think I know where to mark it.' After saying that, Alex returned home.

Ignoring the fuming Kalina, he went to his room and marked it as the teleport point.

—-----------------

"Huh! The tender meat of a tier 3 beast, the four-tusked mammoth taste great. I expected it to be hard to chew and thick. But, now that I have tried it, it is tender and delicious." Alex said after eating a piece of meat.

"Usually, it is the umami in the meat that gives it the savoury and delicious flavour. However, here I think the energy inside the meat is enhancing the flavour. I should eat more to grow more muscles."

Although Alex said that, he was trying to start a conversation with his bodyguard, Kalina. It was his way of easing into a conversation.

"Kalina, try this," Alex said while pointing at a dish. He knew why Kalina was angry. After all, it was him that forgot about her. From what he understood, she wandered around the whole village before reaching their house.

For Alex, it was hard to wrap his head around the idea that Kalina reached the stone head tribe in one piece if she was that bad at the direction.

Anyway, it was time to set his plans in motion.

"How about going to the city of the thousand-headed serpent tribe? I heard that the weather in the southwest was better than here."

Alex said with a simple smile. But it was anything but simple.

Due to his words, Kalina who was ignoring Alex directed her attention at him. The thousand-headed serpent tribe is the place she wanted to go to. She was the one who asked for his help to infiltrate their city and find the blue gem. She was sure that the people that attacked her tribe were someone from there.

How can she feign ignorance now?

"Why?" She asked trying to ascertain Alex's motive.

"You helped me with something, so it is right to help you back."

"No, the real reason." She said with a glare. The last thing she will trust is the words coming out of Alex's mouth.

During the time they spent together, she experienced first-hand how scheming Alex can be. He does everything in his way and cannot be influenced by an outside force. So, she was sure that there was something else happening behind the scene that made him go there. It was not just because of his will to help her.

"Hmm…Sir Taka send me a letter saying that he was in the south. He wanted me to go there and have some fun. So, I thought I might as well help you when we are there. If you don't want to, you don't have to come with me."

"No, I will come with you. It's not like I have any choice."

"Then we will leave in a day. The flying beast will come here in a day. So, be ready to travel."

"Okay." Kalina agreed.

Even though Alex was a sly man. He does not mean any harm. Most of the time, his schemes act as a defensive mechanism to protect himself rather than to harm others. And he has proven that he is a trustworthy individual. If not, he would not have saved Kalina from a tier 5 beast.

It was a late realisation to have. But Kalina finally understood how transparent Alex was. His motives are clear. He does everything he can to make money and enjoy his life. And he was careful enough to not harm anyone with his action.

So, even if it was a long shot, she was willing to accept help from Alex.
