Somewhere I read that its easy - by connecting both devises to the same wireless LAN.
So I dont have wireless LAN- or does WiFi tethering fall into this category?
If you do not have a WLAN/WiFi hotspot, then you can create one with your mobile device, yes.
But keep in mind, that in 99% of all cases a device cannot act as WiFi hotspot and connect to itself at the same time.
So in other words, you'll need a dedicated device that acts as WiFi hotspot.
My recommendation is to use a dedicated WiFi hotspot (a specific device, not an android device). There are many such devices available below 50$. I use a normal Netgear WiFi access point.
But at the end it's your choice, as both works well, Android device as hotspot or a dedicated WiFi access point device.
Also, the WiFi does not require internet access, as it's only used for local communication between Link enabled devices.
