Alex and Kris stepped out of the elevator and arrived at the 10th basement floor.
The 10th basement floor is about the size of two basketball courts placed side by side.
The height of the ceiling was about 20 meters high, making the place look very spacious.
At the center of the room, there's a weird circular portal that seems to twist the space around it.
That is the Dimensional Gate commonly used by people from Earth to travel to Alter Dimension.
In this floor, there is nothing else beside the dimensional gate.
This is to avoid accidentally sending items from Earth to Alter Dimension.
Anyway, once they entered the room, Alex's eyes immediately focused on the portal in front.
"Is that the Dimensional Gate?" He asked.
Kris nodded, then she tilted her head and asked, "Haven't you seen a Dimensional Gate before?"
Alex shook his head and honestly said, "No, this is the first time I'm seeing it."
"Although I've seen a portal before, to me, it looks like the Dimensional Gate is just a bigger version of the portal."
Hearing his honest words, Kris became confused.
"Huh? But how is that possible? The only way to travel to Alter Dimension is through a Dimensional Gate."
"If you haven't seen a Dimensional Gate before, then how were you able to go back and forth from Alter Dimension?"
Alex paused for a moment and turned his eyes to Kris.
With a mysterious smile, he said, "That's a secret. I'll tell you in the future if I think about it."
After that, Alex continued walking, leaving behind the curious Kris.
Moments later, Kris hurriedly caught up to Alex.
At the same time, she didn't ask anymore questions after seeing that Alex didn't want to answer.
The two approached the dimensional gate and they immediately felt the strong pull that was coming from it.
"Hoo~, this should be the reason why there's nothing else here, right?" Alex said.
On the side, Kris confirmed his thoughts, "Yeah, there's a certain gravitational pull coming from the dimensional gate so they decided to just turn this place into an exclusive room for it."
Alex nodded while observing the dimensional gate.
At this time, Kris called him and said, "Well, let's stop standing here and go inside immediately."
Hearing that, Alex walked to her and stood beside her.
Kris held his hand without hesitation and said, "Then, we'll be crossing now!"
As she said that, the two of them entered the gate hand in hand.
Their visions turned dark for a moment and the next second, they appeared inside a room with walls made with concrete bricks and a wooden door that should leads outside.
Alex looked around and saw that it was also empty here just like the 10th basement floor back at the Raven family's Manor.
"So, where are we currently at right now?" Alex asked.
Kris let go of his hand first and started walking ahead of him while saying, "This is the top floor of the Magic Tower that my grandfather built."
"This is the place where they established the dimensional gate on the Alter Dimension to make sure that it is safe and secure from other people."
Alex nodded in understanding.
After that, the two left the room through the only door in this place.
Once they came out, Alex saw a sea of books as far as the eye can see.
All over the place, Alex saw bookshelves filled with various books.
When he walked closer towards one of the bookshelves to see what those books were, his eyes became more surprised.
"Skill Books?!" Alex exclaimed in surprise.
That's right, the books that he saw, were actually skill books based on what he got by using [Inspect] on it.
Hearing his surprised voice, Kris looked at him and saw that he was staring at the books on the shelf with astonishment.
"Oh, yeah, all of the books here are skill books that my grandfather gathered. Of course, my dad, uncle, and auntie also helped out in filling this place up."
"But most of the books here are from my grandfather either from loot or written by him."
This time, Alex was more surprised after hearing what Kris just said.
"Did I hear you right? Your grandfather can make skill books?" He asked.
Kris nodded nonchalantly, "Yeah, but it's only skills that involve magic since his class is also a magic class."
Taking a deep breath, Alex regained his calm.
In his head, he thought, 'Grandpa Jonathan is actually able to create a skill book. That is just incredible.'
Then he browsed through the skill books available in this place and can't help but be amazed at the wide variety of the skill books here.
After a while, still feeling incredible in his heart, Alex went beside Kris who's been sitting in a chair with a book in hand.
Seeing Alex approach, Kris closed the book in her hand and looked at him.
"Are you done looking around now?"
Alex slowly nodded.
"Yeah… I just realized again how awesome your grandfather is."
Kris nodded in understanding.
"I agree with that. Sometimes, I even feel ashamed for being his granddaughter because I'm lacking too much compared to him."
Alex stared at Kris without saying anything.
After a while, Kris shook her head and turned his eyes to Alex.
"How about we go out now and talk about the quest?"
"Sure!"
ƥαṇdαηθνε| Alex nodded.
Kris stood up and led the way out of the tower.
They walked for a while before Kris suddenly stopped in front of a door.
Seeing that, Alex tilted his head and asked, "Huh? Why are you just standing there?"
"Of course, to take an elevator!"
Kris said and as if on cue, the door in front of her opened and a small space that's just enough to fit 10 people appeared in their sight.
Seeing that, Alex immediately realized that this is the elevator that Kris just mentioned.
To be honest, Alex wasn't surprised by the appearance of elevators in this world.
After all, he knows that magic items exist and things similar to items on earth such as the photo crystal can be seen here.
Anyway, the two went inside the elevator and Kris pressed it to go down to the ground floor.
