Everyone Has Their Reckless Youth

Thor began explaining some things about Asgard to Jane, including the World Tree and the structure of the Nine Realms.

After Thor retrieved Mjolnir, Tony had originally planned to kick him out.

However, upon hearing Thor explain these things to Jane, he listened with great interest as well.

Although he had heard about the Nine Realms from Harvey and knew that God King Odin was also a major figure in the universe, to be honest, his understanding was only superficial.

If he could gain a deeper understanding of Asgard and learn about its strength, it would be of great help to him.

Because if he could develop Earth’s civilization to a level similar to Asgard’s, Earth would surely have a place in the universe.

Meanwhile, in Asgard.

Because Thor had been banished to the mortal world,

Loki, with the support of his mother Frigga, successfully ascended to the throne.

But merely sitting on the throne was not enough for Loki. He also wanted his father and mother to truly acknowledge his abilities.

Rather than treating him as a replacement backup after his brother Thor had been banished to the mortal world.

Thus, Loki secretly left Asgard through another hidden passage and began carrying out a series of plans.

At the same time, several of Thor’s comrades began conspiring, seeking a way to bring Thor back.

In their eyes, although Thor had made a mistake, even if he could no longer become king, he should not have had his Godly Power stripped away and been banished to the mortal world.

Such a punishment was far too cruel for a god of Asgard.

So, they secretly came to the Bifrost, hoping to find a way to persuade Heimdall.

"You’ve come?"

However, when Heimdall saw them, he had long anticipated their arrival.

"Heimdall, how is Thor now? Where is he?"

Although Sif felt somewhat nervous upon hearing Heimdall’s words, she still asked.

Heimdall was among the very strongest gods in Asgard, possessing tremendous power.

If they had nothing to hide, they would have had nothing to fear when facing Heimdall.

But this time, they had come to bring Thor back, which meant defying God King Odin’s will.

"Thor is doing well. If he can return to Asgard, then he will naturally return."

"If he cannot, then deliberately disobeying orders and descending to the lower realm will only bring you collective punishment."

Heimdall’s brilliant golden eyes flickered as he spoke.

"Thor is doing well?"

"Stop lying."

"How could a god stripped of Godly Power possibly be doing well in the mortal world?"

A broad, fat, bearded man did not believe him at all and shouted loudly.

"Go back. I will not let you descend to the lower realm."

Heimdall did not explain, merely telling them directly to leave.

"You wouldn’t ignore Thor’s call, would you?"

Seeing Heimdall’s demeanor, Sif asked softly, seeming to realize something.

Heimdall did not answer. He merely shook his head.

If Thor had not regained Mjolnir’s recognition, he certainly would have ignored Thor’s summons.

But now, with the help of Tony Stark, the man who had lifted Mjolnir, Thor had understood the responsibility he ought to bear and regained Mjolnir’s recognition.

Even if Heimdall did not heed Thor’s call, Thor had the means to return to Asgard by other methods.

Since he could return anyway, Heimdall had no reason to ignore Thor’s call and deliberately make him take the long way around.

Moreover, Heimdall also acknowledged Thor’s abilities. Compared to Loki, Thor was more suited to be Asgard’s king.

Now that he could not see Loki anywhere in Asgard, he knew Loki must be plotting something.

Therefore, he could not reveal that Thor had regained his Godly Power.

"Let’s go back."

Seeing Heimdall’s demeanor, Sif knew Thor’s situation might not be as bad as they had imagined.

A powerhouse like Heimdall would disdain lying. Since he had said it, it was most likely true.

"But…"

The fat, bearded man was confused when he saw Sif give up on descending to the lower realm and wanted to say something.

Sif shook her head, signaling for him not to speak.

The group, who had originally been ready to depart, could only turn back the way they had come. But just as they were leaving, Heimdall’s voice came from behind them.

"I think Thor would be very happy if he knew you wanted to defy orders and go down there."

"Now that I know Thor is safe, I can rest easy."

A smile appeared on Sif’s beautiful face as she spoke softly.

At Stark Mansion in New York, Earth.

Thor explained many things to Jane, speaking from daytime until nightfall.

It could be said that he had opened up a whole new world of astronomy for Jane. The universe truly did contain other intelligent life.

It was simply that Earth was under Asgard’s protection, so ordinary alien forces did not dare cause trouble on Earth.

"Ordinary ones don’t dare come, which means some aliens do dare to come here?"

Jane had been recording Thor’s words with a pen and caught the key point.

"The Frost Giants of Jotunheim, whose ancient war I provoked, are the type that dare to come and have the ability to do so."

"They once wreaked havoc across the Nine Realms in ancient times, but my grandfather and father later put an end to the war."

"Thus, the Nine Realms have been peaceful for many years."

"Even if conflicts of various sizes continued, they were merely internal disputes within the worlds and did not involve invasions by outside forces."

"But before, I was young and reckless, too confident in my own strength, so I foolishly broke the treaty."

"If the treaty is gone, the Frost Giants may return at any time."

Thor paused, a guilty expression appearing on his face.

"Everyone has their reckless youth, so don’t take it too much to heart."

Seeing Thor’s expression and hearing those words, Tony spoke.

As God King Odin’s son, Thor had been born with Godly Power beyond that of countless others. It was only natural for him to be confident in his own strength.

Put plainly, Thor was like an ultra-rich second-generation heir, somewhat similar to Tony in the past.

Before experiencing real danger or setbacks, people were extremely confident in their strength or talents and believed that everything they did was absolutely correct.

Even heartfelt advice from family and friends generally could not change such a personality.

Only when they truly found themselves in danger and realized their past arrogance and foolishness could they finally come to their senses.

Thor had lost his Godly Power and been banished to the mortal world. If Tony had not immediately sent Mjolnir back to him and told him the condition for lifting it,

Jane Foster had seen through the condition to its essence and awakened Thor with a few words, allowing him to come to his senses so quickly.

Without Tony’s help, Thor would certainly have suffered greatly before he might have realized his past foolishness and regained Mjolnir’s recognition.
