Does this manga features a different story than the Light Novel or is this some kind of error?

Alternative version just means a series that is a different version from another, to basically reiterate the term in a different manner. So no, I don't see how it isn't an alternative version.

So would that means it features a different story? Since as far as I know it would be called an adaptation if it has the same story...

MAL tends to listen manga and LN versions as an alternative version of each other.
Yes, correctly speaking, one would be the adaptation of the other, but oh well.
Normally the story is the same but with minor changes (like it happens on the TV adaptation).

I can say for example on the Haruhi manga, it had a new chapter not featured on neither LN and Anime versions, (and the anime adaptation had a new episode not featured on the manga/LN versions).
It can happen sometimes, but it's not that common. The manga version is more for those that don't like to read.
