Chapter 33: Clan Members

Touch Me led me to a secluded hut nestled deep within the Niflheim forest, where four distinct figures stood waiting.

As we approached, I recognized one of them instantly, but the other three were unfamiliar to me. However, based on their appearances, I could speculate about who they might be.

Before I could voice my thoughts, Touch Me began to introduce them to me.

"Alexander, let me introduce them to you," Touch Me said, motioning towards the figures. "From the right—Warrior Takemikazuchi, Nishikienrai, Amanomahitotsu, and Ulbert. And I believe you already know Warrior Takemikazuchi."

"And you guys, this is Alexander Seductus Von Mortis," Touch Me continued, turning to the others. "I believe I don't need to further introduce him, as he is now the talk of Yggdriail."

As Touch Me introduced the group, I took a moment to study each of them. Nishikienrai, with his ninja attire and mysterious demeanor, seemed to blend effortlessly into the shadows.

Amanomahitotsu's appearance was unfamiliar to me, but his presence conveyed a sense of artist.

And then there was Ulbert, whose goat-like appearance for what I remember he is supposed to be a magic caster.

Then lastly Warrior Takemikazuchi, Memories of our intense battles during the World Championship flooded back to me. Despite being formidable opponents in the arena, there was a mutual respect between us that transcended our rivalry.

"It's good to see you again, Takemikazuchi," I greeted him with a nod,

"Likewise, Alexander. Our encounters in the championship were memorable, to say the least." Takemikazuchi returned the nod.

"Now that introductions are over, let's talk about our future plans," Touch Me said, his voice carrying a tone of determination.

Before he could continue, Ulbert interjected, his expression serious as he turned towards me.

"Before we proceed, Alexander, there's something I need to ask you."

"What is it, Ulbert?" I asked, curious to hear what he had on his mind.

Ulbert's eyes gleamed with intensity as he leaned in, his voice dropping to a whisper. "Alexander Seductus Von Mortis, as a fellow seeker of power and darkness, I must know: What drives you to pursue such formidable strength? Is it a thirst for dominance? The allure of chaos? Or perhaps a desire to challenge the very fabric of reality itself?"

As he awaited my response, I couldn't help but feel a twinge of amusement at his chuunibyou tendencies.

From what I remember, Ulbert had always been fixated on the concept of evil and darkness, and now here he was, questioning my motives with all the seriousness of a seasoned villain monologuing to his arch-nemesis.

Suppressing a grin, I adopted my best impression of a wise old chinese guy, stroking my imaginary beard with exaggerated deliberation.

"Ah, young Ulbert," I intoned in a deep, gravelly voice, channeling my inner ancient martial arts master. "The pursuit of power is a journey filled with twists and turns, challenges and triumphs. But to truly understand its depths, one must first look within."

Ulbert's eyes widened in anticipation, hanging on my every word as if I held the key to unlocking the secrets of the universe. Little did he know, I was just winging it, playing along with his theatrical antics for the sheer fun of it.

"In my case," I continued, leaning back theatrically, "it's a combination of factors. A thirst for dominance, a taste for chaos, and a dash of curiosity about the unknown. But above all, it's about embracing the darkness within and using it to fuel my quest for ultimate power!"

Ulbert nodded solemnly, as if my words had struck a chord deep within his chuunibyou soul. "Indeed, Alexander," he replied, his voice filled with newfound determination. "Together, we shall conquer the realms of darkness and emerge victorious as the true masters of our destiny!"

I couldn't help but suppress a chuckle at Ulbert's theatrics, wondering if he'd been practicing his villainous monologues in front of a mirror.

Touch Me rolled his eyes, his expression a mixture of amusement and exasperation. "Ulbert, my friend, I appreciate the enthusiasm, but let's try to dial it back a notch, shall we? We're here to discuss our plans, not audition for the role of Yggdrasil's resident supervillain."

Ulbert blinked, momentarily taken aback by the response, before sheepishly nodding in agreement. "Right, sorry about that. Got a bit carried away with the whole 'dark lord' shtick," he admitted, scratching the back of his head awkwardly.

"Please don't mind him, Touch Me. In fact, I like his enthusiasm," I interjected, trying to salvage the situation. "Besides, it's not every day you get to witness someone practicing their evil laugh in broad daylight."

Touch Me and the others exchanged surprised glances, clearly taken aback by my lighthearted response.

"You do?" Even Ulbert seemed surprised, his theatrics momentarily forgotten in the face of my unexpected approval.

"Why are you guys looking surprised?" I quipped, unable to resist a smirk at their bewildered expressions. "Did you think I'd be more of a 'serious business only' kind of guy? Please, life's too short for that nonsense. Let's embrace the drama!"

Touch Me chuckled, shaking his head in amusement. "Well, I suppose a little theatrics never hurt anyone," he conceded, shooting Ulbert a playful wink. "Just as long as we don't start plotting world domination, we should be fine."

Ulbert straightened up, a mischievous glint in his eye. "No promises there, Touch Me. World domination has always been on my to-do list," he joked, earning a round of laughter from the group.
