After a couple of inquiries, Kalina was surprised to realise that Alex didn't know anything about his spirit guardian. A fundamental part of his identity. He didn't know what the primal chaos tribe was or their mission.
How can that be?
Did he not have any contact with his tribe? Or his spirit guardian?
Whenever people awaken, they have visions about the spirit guardian. And from this vision, they gain the knowledge to use energy.
Skills or abilities they use once they become a tier 3 warrior were also imparted by these visions. Yet, how can a person not know about his spirit guardian and still use the skills?
It was a mystery for Kalina.
After that, she spent a long time talking to Alex, explaining in detail what had happened.
The demon, great war and the involvement of the primal chaos tribe were explained while they walked through the snowy mountains.
Finally, Alex gained the full picture of this world. A picture that he wished he never knew.
'Damn it! Good luck trying to live a prosperous life. If what Kalina said is real. The theft of Blue gem might cause a rippling effect on the whole continent. Even the sealed demon might be released. And that will be the end of my peaceful life. DAMN!' Alex screamed in his mind.
'And the first place that is going to be overturned in the chaos is none other than the northern region. Even worse is the fact that the stone head tribe lives in the northernmost part of the northern region.'
"Sigh!" Alex sighed while massaging his temples.
The information Kalina shared was more than enough to cause him a headache.
"So, I am from the primal chaos tribe. What are the skills and abilities of people who are from the primal chaos tribe?" Alex asked after digesting all the information. It was better to know it now, rather than to get surprised later.
"I don't know much about that. From what I have heard, your tribe is special. Unlike the other tribes, people from the primal chaos tribe can master multiple elements."
"Does that mean that I can control any element I want?"
"Of course not. Do you think that you're a tier 5 warrior? Don't even think about controlling all the elements. And possibility doesn't guarantee success. Most people of your tribe will only master one element in their life. You seem to have an affinity with the space element. That is rare even among your tribe. Try your best to master it rather than biting off more than you could chew."
Kalina warned the over-enthusiastic Alex.
'Space element my ass. The only thing I can do is release a smoke screen. It had nothing to do with space. And skills I have that are related to space are from the interdimensional farm. It is not something that I gained from the primal chaos, my supposedly great spirit guardian.'
"Hm, you are right. I should try to improve my space-related skills rather than trying to learn every element." Nodding his head, Alex decided once again to upgrade his farm level.
Even though he was trading large quantities of farm products through the void fish tribe. He always leaves behind some for himself. Selling it and gaining FP to upgrade his farm was always his goal. In a week, he would have enough FP to upgrade his farm to level 4.
It was better to depend on the farm than his spirit guardian. After all, other than the vision he had while awakening. He never had any visions after that.
'I am shunned by the spirit guardian.'

After a while, the party of two finally reached a snowy plateau. Other than the occasional clumps of trees. There was nothing there.
So, they began searching for a tier 3 four-tusked mammoth.
pαndα`noνɐ1~сoМ A tier 3 mammoth was similar in size to a tier 2 mammoth. A fully grown adult would be forty to fifty meters in height.
And one of the most important differences between both was the colour of their fur. Instead of the brown fur of tier 2, they have snow-white fur. And they were also solitary animals.
Instead of migrating south in the winter, they stay in the northern mountains, even in the extreme cold.
"There, I see movement towards the east. I can see something huge moving. Let's go there. It might be a tier 3 mammoth." Alex said.
Not many animals could survive the harsh conditions of the north. So, Alex was almost sure that it was a mammoth. After all, he did spend the majority of his free time learning about this world.
It was not surprising to see him track down a mammoth.
"As expected, it is a tier 3 four-tusked mammoth. Kalina, how much time would it take you to kill it."
"A minute at most. Due to its resilience towards the ice element. It would have been hard for a tier 3 warrior from my tribe to take on it. But, for me. It is easy." Boasting about her strength, Kalina prepared for a battle.
Using ice elements against an animal that has been adapted to survive in extreme cold was foolish. So, she was planning to use physical attacks against the mammoth.
Carefully avoiding the mammoth's senses, Alex and Kalina took their place. Alex stood behind Kalina to action at a moment's notice.
'The best hunters take down their prey in a single attack. Anything more would be disadvantageous to us.' Alex thought.
After living with the stone head tribe, he was slowly beginning to understand the mindset of a hunter.
"Finish it in a single attack."
"Don't order me."
"Weak points are the eyes. If you can, try making an ice spear and piercing it into its eyes."
"I know what to do."
"Then do it fast. It will sense us any moment now."
"Ah…" Exhaling deeply, Kalina tried to bury her frustration deep in her heart. Alex was getting on her nerves. And yet, she did as he told. After all, her final goal was to gain Alex's trust and make him help her in her endeavour.
For that, she was willing to go to any means necessary. Even if it meant working for Alex like a servant.
Forcing her hands together, Kalina gathered a huge amount of energy between her palms. It materialised as a white glowing ball of energy.
The moment it materialised, the mammoth sensed their presence. Realising that Kalina was a tier 4 warrior, it tried to flee.
However, it was unsuccessful in doing so.
Using the energy she condensed, Kalina made a giant spear of ice. It was ten meters long and glowed white.
She launched the spear at frightening speed towards the mammoth. Within a second, it pierced into the mammoth's head, pinning it to the ground. Although the mammoth tried to create an ice shield around it, it was all for nought. The ice spear pierced it like it was breaking an eggshell.
It was not a battle. It was a one-sided slaughter.
'She does live up to her name.' Alex thought while looking at Kalina who was proudly standing beside him.
She didn't even try attacking the weak points. She was strong enough to kill the beast without any trickery.
'Is she deliberately showing off her power? Do you need a head pat?'
"Go and collect the beast carcass," Kalina ordered Alex. She fulfilled her end of the bargain. It was time to leave.
Unknown to them, the ice spear that Kalina launched seems to have struck something.
Not realising this, Alex grabbed the beast carcass and put it into the inventory. This triggered a chain reaction. The ice beneath his feet cracked. And a deep crevice formed near him.
From it, a chilly wind rose. It was mild yet shocking.
Alex and Kalina felt fear gripping their heart. An irrational fear of death swallowed them at that moment.
Both of them couldn't say or do anything. But they knew something horrible was about to happen.
"Ah…" Alex groaned. He couldn't take it anymore.
Teleporting to near Kalina, he grabbed her by her waist and began teleporting.
After releasing a large amount of smokescreen and teleporting ten times, he finally relaxed. They were approximately three kilometres away from the place they hunted the mammoth.
Finally, they could breathe fine.
But before they could think. On the horizon, something huge emerged from the ground.
It was a giant white snake. It tore the mountains apart before finally revealing its complete form. After looking around, it rose to the sky and flew west.
Like an illusion, it disappeared from their sight.
Alex felt fatigued. His energy was completely drained. And so, his grip loosened.
Kalina was too stunned to move and fell face-first into the snow.
