Interdimensional Farming in Another World

Chapter 138 Pet 4

?

It was like a miracle. 

No one could have predicted what had happened.

The moment when time began to move forward, the world was engulfed by a bright light. Everything turned white.

During the bright flash, the tiny butterfly released a tremendous amount of energy. This energy was completely directed at the body of the horned mutant. From its arm to the entire body, the energy occupied every cell in its body.

It was much more than any cells of the horned mutant could hold. It began to crumble from the inside like a sandcastle.

Initially, the cells enlarged. But soon, the cells began to explode and decay. In an instant, the body of the horned mutant turned to ash and disappeared.

Everything happened so fast that no one could witness it.

The flash of light remained for a moment. Finally, after a while, Alex's eyes adjusted as he saw what had happened.

The body of the horned mutant, from his extended arm and upwards completely disappeared. 

The arm that pierced the body of Chitra looked like it was separated from its body by an extremely sharp blade. The bones and flesh were cut with utmost precision so that they wouldn't cause any harm to Chitra. 

'It is dead. The horned mutant is finally dead.' Alex realised this fact.

Kain stood like a sculpture without moving. The defeat of his prized creation devastated him. The battle he was so confident of winning came to an abrupt end with the death of the horned mutant. 

He decided to escape leaving behind Alex and Chitra.

–

The battle ended with heavy losses on both sides. The spider gang was destroyed while the Divine Butterfly tribe sustained heavy casualties. 

And in the underground cavern, Chitra was barely staying alive. 

Although the battle ended, it left behind its mark on her body. The giant hand of the horned mutant that pierced her was still present inside her body. 

Due to her quick reaction when the attack came, she was barely able to avoid getting her heart punctured. However, it still tore through her body, just below the shoulder blade. Even her ribs were heavily damaged. 

Her entire right arm turned limp as she could barely sense the part of the body. Blood was gushing out of her wounds with each second.

Once the piece of the arm that was stuck inside her was removed, she would instantly die of blood loss.

'What did you mean by live on? Sister, I don't think I can survive this.' Chitra thought with a heavy heart. 

She didn't cry after that. Or she couldn't. Her body simply couldn't produce any more tears.

Alex didn't know what to do at that moment. The person before him was injured and at the death's door. He didn't know if there existed a miracle medicine that could save a person sustaining as heavy injuries as Chitra.

"I don't know what to do. I have never teleported a person as injured as you. So, I am unable to predict what would happen. You might even die while I am teleporting you out." Alex stated.

"I don't know either. I have never been wounded like this before." Chitra spoke in a low voice. 

"It seems like your lungs still work!"

"No. The remaining energy I have is barely holding the body together. I would die the moment I release the control over my energy. That is my fate. I could sense my death nearing me even as we speak." 

"But still, I want to live," Chitra said with a melancholic smile. Because that's what her sister said her to do.

"Wouldn't your tribe come here now? Will they be able to save you?" Alex asked to see if there was any hope for her. After all, Chitra was a tier 5 warrior. If there was something that could save her, she would at least know about that, right?

"They would come here. But, they wouldn't be able to save me." She turned to Alex. Her eyes turned blurry as she was beginning to nod off. She was exhausted and sleepy. And if she gave in to that impulse, she knew she would never wake up.

Forcing herself to wake by biting on her tongue, Chitra gazed at Alex.

"If I die before they come. Can you relay my last words to them?"

"I can." 

"Then. Say that I found my sister. And say that she passed on without any regret." 

"Okay. Is that it?" 

"Yes." 

"But, what if there was a way?" Alex suddenly asked. "A very risky way to save your life?" Alex suddenly asked.

"Huh!" 

Alex captured Chitra's full attention with his word.

"What way?" After a moment of shock, she asked back instantly. 

"There might be a way to save you. And I am not sure if that would work. If failed, even your corpse would not remain. Would you like to try it?"

'Is this the opportunity that the Divine butterfly predicted? The opportunity to change my fate!' Suddenly a thought infiltrated her mind. 

She knew the white-robed man was unpredictable. His future was shrouded by something powerful, even the Divine butterfly couldn't read his future or past. If he was saying something like that, she believed there was hope.

"YES!" Chitra said resolutely. 

"Uh!" Alex was surprised by her willingness.

'Yes! Ahh! It's better than dying I think. Now I am kind of realising why the evil organisation has such influence in this continent. I have too much power at the negotiation table when I can decide on the life and death of the other person.'

'Desperation can force others to align with my interest.'

'Although, I cannot sense desperation, fear or greed from her. She still wants to live. And she wants to take that opportunity even when she knows the risk.'

'What made her think that I was a good person? What if I was someone like the evil organisation? What if I used her to do something improper after saving her?  She threw caution to the wind, this fool.'

'Anyway, it's not my place to think about all that. I gave her hope, So, I should follow through.' 

Alex decided as he released a huge amount of mana into the atmosphere. Although he was a tier 4 warrior, in terms of mana quantity, he was not any weaker than an early tier 5 warrior. 

Chitra, who saw this was surprised. 

"What are you doing?" She asked in a panic. 

"Don't reject the energy. Accept it and allow it to engulf your body. This is the only way to save you. After that, I will teleport you somewhere. So, don't panic when you see the surroundings change." Alex warned.

The mana swirled around and began to cover the entire body of Chitra. And as Alex suggested, she allowed the mana to engulf her body. She didn't reject its presence anymore. Or else, like the last time, Alex would have been unable to teleport her.

"Okay. I am beginning." 

"Farm, turn her into a pet," Alex said aloud. 

"What!" Chitra, who heard it couldn't react properly. 

Pet! What kind of pet? What farm? Was he not going to teleport me? Why Is he suddenly talking about pets? 

Chitra couldn't comprehend Alex's words. But she felt something was wrong.

[Ding. Confirming the entity's life signs. No rejection was detected.]

[Entity is accepted as farm pet 4. You can rename the pet if you want.]

[Would you like to rename it?] 

"Yes! Rename it to Chitra."

[Accepted.]

[Pet's health condition deteriorating. In critical condition. Please allow the farm to take action to improve health.]

"Allowed."

[Accepting order. Analysing the "Chitra's" condition.]

[Puncture wound on right shoulder. Scapula injured, Ribs injured, Lungs injured, heavy damage to muscles, glands and soft tissue.]

[Suggesting method of treatment. Energy Isolation treatment combined with gene serum and nutritional supplements.]

[Chances of survival -  10 percentage.]

"Sigh! As expected. The chance of her surviving with the help of the farm is also low."

"What!" Chitra, who heard it was once again surprised by what Alex was saying. To her, Alex seemed like a crazy person that was blabbering while looking at the sky.

But suddenly, she saw something pop up in her vision. A little icon of the farm was seen in her vision. And her curiosity was quickly directed at that.

But before she could find what that was, she was teleported to an unfamiliar place. 

'What is this place?' She said while looking at the plants that surrounded her. 

'A vegetable farm?' She concluded after observing for a second.

Meanwhile, Alex was improving the plan provided by the farm. The ten per cent chance of survival was too low. So, he had to do something crazy. 

"Farm, including the grafting of mutant cells into the plan. First, graft the mutant cells, and later inject the gene serum that gives the resistance. Also, include the regeneration gene serum in that."

"What is the chance if we do it like that?" 

[Fifty per cent.]

'It's a lot better than before. If she survive, she would become even stronger.'

"Let's do it," Alex suggested without wasting any more time. Chitra was in critical condition, and as time went by the chances of her survival were slowly decreasing. He was forced to make a quick decision. 

[Initialising treatment.]

[To ensure the safety of the pet, Isolating the space occupied by the pet.]

Suddenly a silvery metallic sheen materialised around Chitra like a cocoon. And all the energy was drained from inside it. She fainted instantly after that.

Then the cocoon was moved to another vacant area near the farm.
