Dio could still hear the lively noise inside the pizzeria as he walked out of the door. This place’s warmth seemed to dilute the coldness of the world, making people hesitant to leave its premise. Maybe, it was the real reason why the pizzeria was so successful.

Dio turned around and saw Vision from the window and smiled at him.

“Let’s return for now,” Dio said to Natasha.

“Well, you can speak up more! I barely hear you!” Natasha said teasingly. Dio kept talking with his mouth shut all the time as his mouth was now Black and Green after eating colourful foods that he ordered.

With that said, Dio then entered his car without saying anything else. He just wanted to get back to the compound as soon as possible!

. . . . . . . . . . .

The next day, Steve was still staying in the base while Pietro was still trying to tap into his potential. Meanwhile, Dio and Natasha went to New Asgard.

“This place isn’t as beautiful as the real Asgard,” Dio said as he saw the group of houses in New Asgard. He also noticed that the people here have already fully integrated into the Earth’s technology as most of them were seen with phones or headphones!

“Hey, why are you here?” Valkyrie suddenly appeared in Orange Sportswear while carrying goods.

“It’s been a long time, but it looks like you’ve adapted to your surroundings now,” Dio said as he greeted Valkyrie with Natasha beside him. Dio looked around and saw that the people were busy with their own thing. Although Asgard has been destroyed and even lost half of their numbers after the catastrophe, it didn’t seem like they lost any hope whatsoever! Nevertheless, their leader didn’t have the same thing planned.

“Yeah, it was okay! It was a little bit uncomfortable at first, but after a while, we just kind of adapted!” Valkyrie said with a smile on her face. “Are you here to visit Thor too? If you do, then you better give up! He wouldn’t see you, and in fact, we can only meet him at the beginning of each month when he comes out to get his supply!” Valkyrie said annoyedly.

Dio looked in the corner and saw dozens of beer bottles collected! Neither Dio nor Natasha ever thought that Thor would be in such a bad state!

“It’s alright. I have experience with this kind of situation! Just leave it to me!” Dio said confidently.

“Alright then, come with me! I hope you can get that guy out of his room!” Valkyrie said with a shrug. Dio sighed as he couldn’t blame Valkyrie for losing faith in Thor! This was the time that Asgardians needed their king to stand up for them, but they got a king that behaved like a child instead! It was utterly disappointing!

Valkyrie then stopped in front of a modest-looking house and took them inside.

“Thor is in there! The rest is up to you. I have things to do, so good luck!” Valkyrie said as she pointed to a room before leaving.

“It seems this old friend of ours needs some beating!” Dio said annoyedly.

“Well, we don’t know what he was thinking! I was certain that he would be blaming himself too!” Natasha said worriedly. She then knocked on the door and kept knocking on the door for a while as there was no sound at all.

“Stop it. Clearly, he doesn’t want to open it!” Dio said as he stepped forward and stopped Natasha. He then pushed the door and knocked it off of its handle. Natasha then stepped forward but instantly threw up as she took a deep breath inside the room.

“It smells like something died in there!” Natasha said as she covered her nose. Dio frowned and entered the room without hesitation.

“Thor!” Dio said with a frown on his face.

“Oh, look who is here! Welcome to New Asgard! I am so glad to see you! Would you like a bottle of beer? By the way, can you fix the TV antenna for me? I couldn’t watch my favorite channel anymore, and now I am stuck playing games!” Thor said with a smirk on his face.

Dio was disgusted by Thor’s behavior! He has already become a fat man and judging from the smell, there was a high chance that Thor ever took a shower either! The all-powerful and handsome God of Thunder has now become a neet!

“Thor, you know that we aren’t here to fix your tv or listen to you bragging about your gaming experience! Look at yourself, you are a mess!” Natasha said annoyedly. She saw that even the Storm Breaker had been reduced to a mere coat hanger on the side! But it didn’t seem to have any effect on Thor. He kept stuffing his face with the chips on the table, ignoring Natasha altogether.

“Listen, I am fine! What’s wrong? Don’t I look good?” Thor smiled.

“You looks like a morbid pig!” Dio said annoyedly.

“You are still hilarious as ever! So what brings you here? Are you here to play with me?” Thor asked curiously.

“Well, at first, I am here to meet an old friend, but it seems I am here to beat him up instead!” Dio said coldly.

“Wow, this time, your joke is bad!” Thor said as he picked up his Storm Breaker with one hand.

“It looks like you can at least pick up that axe! But how strong would you be right now? Maybe, it is good to beat you up for practice as you are no different than a punching bag right now!” Dio said with a smirk on his face.

Natasha noticed that Thor tightened his grip on the Storm Breaker. It seemed Dio’s taunt had taken its effect on Thor.

But, instead of going after Dio, Thor picked up a new bottle of beer and used Storm Breaker to open it!

Storm Breaker has been reduced to a can opener!
