As soon as I went to attack, Thor threw his hammer at me.
I shot webs on the wall and dodged it, but the hammer kept coming after me.
I guess that's what Mind Stone did to Thor.
So, while continuously dodging the hammer, I shot Web Bullets at him.
But Thor isn't a thousand years old skilled fighter for nothing.
He also dodged my attacks and jumped awfully close to me, ready to punch me. And his hammer was coming at me from behind.
Seriously, Thor is 2v1 jumping me! That's not fair!
And I can't even touch Mjolnir, because it is Mjolnir!
I used all Judo I knew, dodged his punch a little, grabbed his arm while turning around, and threw him at his hammer.
But the hammer changed its path as to not hit Thor and instead, I got hit by it in the stomach.
Thor was on the ground, and so was I.
The difference, his hammer was on me, pinning me down.
I tried to lift it, but it didn't budge.
Thor got up, smug.
"That throw was good."
Saying that, he took back his hammer, and I took a deep breath. I didn't even realise that I was suffocating while the hammer was on me.
I did a kick-up like Shawn Michaels, and looked at the Dwarves.
Honestly, I could have extended the fight by webbing up Thor when he fell. But unless he removed his hammer, I would still be defeated.
I lost.
But anyway, I just needed to demonstrate my fighting style to the Dwarves.
Eitri and all others started contemplating.
Conventional weapons like sword wouldn't suit me.
"How about gauntlets, which can shoot energy beam from the stone, and even form the Mind Stone energy webs like I can? And with phasing-like ability? And those gauntlets make me hit people hard like Mjolnir? And they shouldn't be too big. Like fingerless gloves, but can cover my fingers as well when activated?"
How did Vision even gain his phasing ability? It couldn't be his Vibranium body. So it must be due to Mind Stone.
Eitri said, "All of it is possible, except the phasing. Well, if Mind Stone does have the ability, it might be possible..."
He frowned.
"It might actually be possible. Since Mind Stone might be able to enter the dimension of mind. But not your body...
Well, it's difficult to know whether it is possible or not. We will only get to know once the weapon is made. Give me your hands for measurement."
I nodded.
Maybe Thor's lightning and Vibranium, and the fact that Vision's mind was connected with the mind stone led to his phasing ability?
Anyway, after Eitri took the measurements of my hands, the Dwarves started their work.
Honestly, maybe I could have gotten a suit of Uru? But I doubt that it would be flexible enough for my needs.
Moreover, having a suit will take more Uru than Thor's hammer. I doubt Odin will allow that much.
Anyway, I plan to get Vibranium in the near future, so I will work with that instead.
After taking the measurements, they carefully crafted moulds, and then, the sun was used for melting Uru and having it in the moulds.
I don't have words to describe how badass it is.
And then, they put together the moulds.
After they cooled down, my gauntlets were almost ready.
Painted in black, and then Mind Stone carefully put in the left gauntlet.
"Try them on."
I excitedly put on my gauntlets, and they were surprisingly flexible and sleek. I guess not much Uru huh?
I didn't have any problem in moving my hands.
Mind Stone's energy coursed through my body, but this time, I didn't pass out for a week. I guess I have gotten used to it, and there is no longer a strain.
"Push that button."
I pushed the only button on it, and the gauntlets which were like finger-less gloves covered my fingers as well. Not like Nano-tech. But still smooth and very easy to move my fingers in.
"Alright. Testing area is there."
I went to the Testing room, and punched the table. The force wasn't like Mjolnir, but it still easily shattered steel.
Mind Stone glowed and I fired a beam. Then made all kinds of webs.
"Yo, Thor."
I could easily use Telepathy now, without having to focus.
"Don't do that."
I shrugged as Thor didn't like me speaking in his head.
And then, I tried phasing.
...It didn't work.
Still, I am satisfied.
"Thank you Eitri, Thor, thank you everyone!"
"Then lets have beer!"
Eitri laughed and brought a bucket of beer.
The same height as me.
...I probably can't get drunk on normal alcohol. But this is different.
I am underage, but no one is going to say anything about it, since those who are concerned simply wouldn't know?
Still...
"Just a sip. I don't want to return home drunk."
"Eh? What will just a sip do? It's not as strong as Asgard's. Just drink your heart out!"
"I appreciate the gesture, but it's my first time trying alcohol, so... just a sip."
"Oh. First time huh? Hahaha! Don't worry, you will get addicted to it!"
Eitri took out a jug from the cabinet, dipped it in the barrel, and handed it to me.
"If you can handle Mind Stone, you can handle atleast this much."
Thor, and all Dwarves started drinking directly from the barrels. They looked like they were having so much fun.
I looked at the beer in my hand. A whole jug. Not even a glass. A whole jug...
I took a deep breath, and drank it in one go. They made such a cool weapon for me. Denying further will be rude.
...Bitter...
I don't understand why people enjoy alcohol at all.
Maybe add sugar, since adding sugar to chocolate makes it good?
Suddenly, everyone looked at me like I am some sort of sick weirdo.
"Who adds sugar in beer!?"
They looked deeply offended that I even thought of that.
Wait, how did they know what I was thinking?
Thor pointed at my left gauntlet. Mind Stone was glowing.
Honey? This will bring taste—
"That's not honey! Don't eat the Mind Stone!"
Huh? Thor's right.
What the hell is happening to me!?
My stomach churned, and suddenly,
"BLEGH!"
I vomited everything.
My head cleared a bit, and I realised that I have just vomited while they are enjoying!
"I... will clean it."
A Dwarf handed me a big mop. Looking at me strangely.
I swear I will never drink alcohol again!
----------------------
After embarrassing myself, I returned to earth from Asgard.
I got everything I asked Odin for.
Heimdal saw where my family is, and Odin sent me straight in front of Hawkeye's home.
"Cindy! You are back! W-what is that!?"
I looked back. 5,000 tonnes+ 5 kg gold. In front of this, most of the other things looked quite insignificant.
"I brought compensation from Asgard."
