I Am Thor, God of Thunder

"It's alright, I actually find it quite interesting. I never expected that the usually serious Valkyrie would have such a personality at heart."

Ren chuckled and spoke.

"What I didn't expect was that you, as a Valkyrie from Norse Mythology, can't even drink a little bit of alcohol?"

"You can drink it, but only a little bit."

Rossweisse's straightforward answer.

"Before I started working for that old geezer... Lord Odin, I specifically trained my drinking capacity back home, just so I could handle situations like this."

As is widely known.

The gods in mythology loved to gather and enjoy themselves, and the Norse gods were no exception.

From mortals to gods, there is no one who doesn't enjoy drinking.

Banquets were held every three days for small gatherings and every five days for large gatherings.

In Valhalla, the daily routine of the Heroic Spirits, besides fighting, consists of eating meat and drinking alcohol. As Valkyries who serve the Heroic Spirits, they are not to say they are particularly good drinkers, but they are at least of average ability.

Rossweisse can't be said to be unable to drink alcohol, but rather that she gets drunk from just one drop, a style that clashes with Scandinavia.

"So what happened to you last night?"

"Uh... I accidentally drank too much. I'm perfectly fine with just a little!"

Rossweisse confidently patted her chest and assured him.

"Then let's have a couple of drinks first."

After Ren finished speaking, he took out a bottle of Lafite from his storage space; it was a genuine 1982 vintage.

Ren poured half a glass of wine and handed it to the girl.

Upon seeing this, Rossweisse's eyes narrowed to slits; there was no resistance to the alcohol in her eyes, only a longing for the high-paying job.

He then made a bold statement in his mind, declaring that if she got drunk again today, she would be a dog!

But after only half a glass, everyone heard a thud, and Rossweisse had been so confident just moments before, collapsed to the ground like an exhausted dog, fast asleep.

That's it?

Ren reluctantly took back the wine.

"Take it back."

He waved his hand dismissively.

Mittelt immediately came over, skillfully put his arm around Rossweisse's shoulders, and carried her back to her room.

She did this not because she was particularly flattering of Ren, although that was part of the reason, but she also had her own personal reasons.

After Rossweisse woke up in the morning, she thanked her, and soon the two started chatting about everyday things. When Rossweisse mentioned that she liked to buy cheap goods at 100-yen stores and to wait in malls to buy discounted items, the Fallen Angels Mittelt immediately reached an agreement with Rossweisse and they agreed to go shopping together during their holidays.

Ren ignored the drunken Rossweisse and, while feeding Fenrir and its two puppies high-quality dog food, suddenly thought of something interesting.

He took Mjolnir out of his storage space.

The power of thunder spread out, giving the people present a feeling of goosebumps.

"You should all recognize it. It's Sacred Gear wielded by Thor, the Norse Mythology god of thunder. Although this is a replica, its power is just as great. Whoever can pick it up and use it, I'll give it to her."

After Ren finished speaking, the eyes of the people present lit up.

Although everyone present was an extraordinary being, none of them felt they had more trump cards up their sleeves.

Moreover, it was the only copy of Mjolnir, possessing powerful attributes.

"Meow!"

When Ren placed Mjolnir on the table, Kuroka was the first to raise his hand to volunteer.

Without waiting for Ren's consent, he immediately grabbed Mjolnir's short handle with both hands and tried to lift it up with all his might.

Let alone lifting it off the table, even moving it a millimeter is a pipe dream.

Kuroka, his face flushed red, stared incredulously at the short-handled hammer.

She even used magic, but she still couldn't move.

This is absolutely outrageous!

"Let us do it. It's said that only a person with a pure heart can lift and use Mjolnir. As an angel, I can certainly handle Mjolnir!"

Xenovia spoke confidently.

Chapter 204 I am Thor

Chapter 204

Xenovia confidently stepped forward and grabbed the handle; Mjolnir moved slightly, but not much.

She was a little skeptical and immediately increased her strength, but it was still the same as before.

"How so?!"

Xenovia couldn't believe it.

"Is this Mjolnir fake?!"

"It's definitely fake, a replica of the real thing, kind of Mjolnir."

"That's what Ren said."

"Then how could I not be able to lift it?"

"Perhaps it's because your heart isn't so pure. Never mind, next one."

"Impossible! I am a devout Catholic Church! How could my heart be impure?! I know! It must be because I believe in God, Mjolnir is a weapon from Norse Mythology, therefore I am a heretic! A heretic!"

"Drag it on, next one."

Irina Shidou didn't want Xenovia to continue embarrassing herself, so she quickly dragged her away.

Next, the girls tried one by one, even Lavinia tried to lift it, but gave up after finding that although she could lift it, she couldn't use Mjolnir's divine power.

"Nobody knows how to use it?"

Ren scratched his head.

Although he could use Mjolnir because of the system's proficiency panel, it was a hammer and he couldn't use it properly. So he thought of increasing the combat power of the women around him, but unexpectedly, they were all wiped out.

Although Akeno Himejima hasn't tried it yet, it's easy to guess that her intentions aren't pure.

Is he really going to cosplay Thor someday?

"There's still one person who hasn't tried it yet."

Just as Ren was about to put the hammer away, the Koneko suddenly cried out.

"Who?"

I asked Ren asked.

Don't tell him it's Akeno Himejima, or it's definitely a no-go.

"It's Asia. She's been taking care of the dogs outside all this time."

The Koneko spoke to Asia, who was carrying a bag of dog food.

A few seconds later.

Asia learned what had happened, but quickly shook her head and waved her hands, refusing, "I... I can't do it. I can't fight, and even you guys can't lift a hammer, so I... I'm even less capable."

"It's alright, come and give it a try. Using Mjolnir isn't just about being able to fight."

Ren said with a smile.

He really hadn't expected Asia to be involved.

But judging from the current situation, Asia might actually be able to lift a hammer.

"Okay, fine, but please don't laugh at me if I can't pick it up."

Helpless, Asia had no choice but to put down the dog food bag and walk up to the hammer.

Looking at the huge lump of metal in front of her, Asia thought to herself that there was no way she could lift it with her thin arms and legs, but in order not to embarrass Ren, she rolled up her sleeves and used both hands.

But then, something incredible happened.

The moment Asia touched the hammer, a layer of pale blue lightning patterns appeared on the surface of Mjolnir.

Then everyone heard a cry of "Ouch!" and Asia's body fell backward uncontrollably. The quick-thinking Koneko rushed forward and caught her.

"I'm sorry, I lost my balance for a moment."

Asia apologized to everyone immediately, her face showing embarrassment, but she didn't notice the surprised looks the women were giving her.

"Asia, you can actually lift it up?"

Xenovia said.

Let alone Sacred Gear, even an ordinary hammer wouldn't be able to be lifted by Asia.

"Huh? I... I lifted it up?"

Upon hearing Xenovia's voice, the dazed Asia noticed that Mjolnir was being held by her right hand. She couldn't even feel any extra weight; it was as if it had been tailor-made for her!

Immediately afterwards, everyone heard a deep, resonant voice.

"I am Thor, the great god of thunder, son of Odin, for the glory of the northern gods!"

This statement, combined with the lightning power that enveloped Asia at that moment, was strangely captivating.

Everyone was shocked.

Does this statement prove that Asia has officially gained Mjolnir's approval?!

So... a new female Thor?

"I am Thor, the great god of thunder, son of Odin, for the glory of the northern gods!"

Um?

Why repeat the same thing three times?

But soon Lavinia, Rias, and the other women noticed that the words weren't shouted from Asia's hammer, but rather from a speaker that Ren pulled out from somewhere, and the same voice was playing from that speaker.

As they looked over, Ren was preparing to play it for the fourth time.

The women. "..."

Ren shrugged. "I'm just adding some atmosphere to the event."

I don't believe your nonsense, you old geezer, you're really wicked!

He's clearly just fooling around!

However, they were all used to Ren's occasional erratic behavior, so they didn't pay much attention to it.

Asia, who had gained Mjolnir's approval, was at a loss. "I... I don't know how to fight, so it's useless to me, Mr. Ren, you should take it back."

"No need, just keep it. You can use it to protect yourself even if you don't fight. After all, right now you're the only one without any fighting ability. With this hammer, you won't be afraid even if you're alone in the future."

Ren remembered that in the original story, Asia was kidnapped by bad guys quite a few times.

In one of the storylines about the future, Asia is cursed by Loki and falls into a deep sleep.

"Alright, Mr. Ren, if you ever need it, I'll return it to you whenever possible."

Asia said seriously.

And so, after a series of tests, Asia successfully became the new female Thor, congratulations!

However, Asia is currently a complete greenhorn with almost no combat experience. She hasn't even fully developed the potential of her Sacred Gear, "The Twilight Healing." If she were to go to the battlefield, she could easily become a liability.

Therefore, to avoid the embarrassing situation of being accidentally shot by friendly forces instead of being hit by the enemy in the future, we need to arrange a beginner's tutorial for Asia. We don't need to make her proficient, but at least she needs to learn the most basic movement methods like WASD.

To celebrate Asia becoming the Goddess of Thor, a small banquet was held that evening.

It was another mixed-gender hot spring bath in the evening, but the difference was that no newcomers were "injured" tonight because of Ren.

Ren didn't go to see Akeno Himejima, since the first day had been too much of a shock for her. The girl said she needed to rest for a few more days, and Ren could only stay in his room, waiting for Lavinia to come over for a visit in the middle of the night.
