Even if Thanos did not want to fight, Ebony Maw showed no mercy.
Following the principle of "you might not want to fight me, but I want to fight you," Ebony Maw raised a hand and sent Black Dwarf hurtling at Thanos.
Thanos's Infinity Gauntlet had been sealed, and he had no suitable weapon on him.
All he could do was watch as Ebony Maw used Telekinesis to hurl Black Dwarf at him, axe in hand. He came so fast that, in the blink of an eye, the blade was almost upon Thanos.
