75 chipped and shatter(chapter 74)

previously in chapter 73

A spell he acquired after reaching 50% draconic bloodline, and it did counter the lightning, but the hammer was hiding behind the attack to surprise him. However, this wasn't the first time the hammer did this, so Oliver was already anticipating it. He struck the hammer with his own, sending it flying down, but the hammer flew back up. A figure could be seen—a woman made out of lightning wielding Mjolnir—before yelling, "I am Mjolnir!" and hurtling the hammer at Oliver. It struck his stomach, sending him through mountains again, but his healing factor was working overtime, healing his injuries faster and faster. His draconic bloodline wasn't a slouch either, providing superhuman durability.

Eventually, the thunder lady, Mjolnir's conjured form, called back the hammer, looking at the mountain before muttering to herself. "Perhaps that wormling has finally vanished. I should go and deal with Thor before odin gives him the full odin force. the—" But before she could continue, she saw a shadow flying towards her, growing bigger and bigger before Oliver arrived in front of Mjolnir. He swung his Moonforge at the thunderous form of Mjolnir. "Agh, such a vile creation is an insult to me, wormling. Do not swing it at me," she scoffed as she swung Mjolnir, which the Moonforge tanked, causing shockwaves.

Chapter 74

"There is nothing that Mjolnir can't break!" she yelled, only for Oliver to retrieve his adamantium shield. Taking the full hit of the hammer, Oliver exclaimed, "Enough of your endless enchanted weapons, wormling! Now face the wrath of Mangog!" The woman made of thunder contorted into a beastly shape, attacking with more ferocity, denting even the shield. Oliver continued to tank the hits as the shield glowed. "Face me, wormling!" Mjolnir yelled as Oliver answered by releasing all the energy the shield had gathered into a pulse, sending the hammer flying and shattering space.

*ROAR* Oliver, still enraged, flew after the hammer as they traversed through space before arriving in a forest, which they didn't even pay attention to. The hammer again flew towards him, hitting Oliver in the stomach and sending him through forests and mountains. Suddenly, a dark pulse washed over the hammer as Mjolnir was covered in dark energy. "Is this your last resort, wormling?" Mjolnir yelled, only for Oliver, still in his hybrid form, now covered in a symbiote suit, to become 25 times stronger.

This allowed Oliver not only to punch Mjolnir and send it flying but also to scorch part of Mangog's form, causing the demon to scream in pain. "Enough, wormling!" Mjolnir was enraged as clouds formed above him, sending a large amount of lightning down. Though Oliver was enraged, he wasn't stupid enough to take on the lightning head-on. He used his adamantium shield to withstand it, feeling like his insides were being cooked and crushed by an entire mountain. The lightning shattered the mountains and could kill gods. "Disappear, wormling!" Mjolnir continued to rain down lightning on Oliver.

Oliver then dished back all the damage to Mjolnir, sending it flying back as it flickered. "YOU THINK YOU COULD KILL ME? YOU THINK—" However, Oliver, still in his hybrid symbiote form, wielding the anti-metal blade with its third option that disturbs magic activated, swung the hammer with all his might. The blade cut through the air as Mjolnir swung the hammer. It didn't know about the option which disturbs magic, causing the lightning it used to shield against the anti-blade to be disturbed. This allowed the anti-blade to come in contact with the hammer, cracking it and causing large amounts of lightning to spew out. 

Sending out a large pulse, Oliver was sent flying while Mjolnir itself flickered. "Wormling, you…" Mjolnir weakened, damaged, chunks of it falling down. Despite having his nullification guardian option shattered, Oliver managed to get up, though he had multiple broken ribs, hands, and a cracked jaw. He limped toward Mjolnir, groaning in pain as he advanced. Suddenly, an orange portal appeared, and Earth's heroes poured out, a formidable array including Captain America, Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, Iron Man, Mr. Fantastic, Namor, Wanda, Ghost Rider, Blade, the Starbrand, Captain Marvel, and even Freyja and Thor, now wearing golden armor and wielding a golden sword.

As Oliver walked toward Mjolnir, Thor placed his hand on Oliver's shoulder, saying, "Please, appease your anger. I will ensure it never harms another being." Rainbow light enveloped the hammer as Mjolnir yelled, "You think you have won? You think you can cage lightning?" before Thor and Mjolnir disappeared.

"Oliver," Wanda approached Oliver, who just nodded before exiting his hybrid form and retracting his symbiote suit, revealing his battered human form. Despite multiple wounds that would have killed any ordinary being, he stood there before retreating to his shell home, leaving Wanda to sigh. The heroes surveyed the scene, finding nothing but a crater where the battle had taken place. "Who fights Mjolnir itself?" Spider-Man wondered aloud, receiving Blade's response, "The one who kills eldritch immortal goddess." The heroes, acknowledging the might of Mjolnir as they saw the destruction it caused, departed.

Only Wanda remained, staring at the scene for a moment before restoring the area to its previous state with a wave of her hand. Meanwhile, inside the shell home, Oliver looked at the items he had used in the fight, most of them below 50% or just above it. As his wounds healed over time, he recalled the lessons he had received from the dwarves, especially King Eitri, who was killed by Mjolnir. After a couple of hours, Oliver got up, returning to Nidavellir to fix up the place. Raiders and thieves came, but Oliver vented his anger on them, killing as many as he could before they stopped coming.

Most of the raiders were sorcerers, witnessing the true horrors of the sorcerer killer, which frustrated oliver even further as it was unable to display its true potential against Mjolnir. After fixing up the place, Oliver began forging, not using the forge on-site but his crucible. He heated a small mixture of uru, adamantium, and anti-metal with his draconic breath, forging it perfectly while recalling his fight with Mjolnir and channeling his emotions into his craft. He forged from sunrise to sunset, with Thor watching the entire time. When Oliver finished, he put away his equipment, except for the pair of newly forged gauntlets, before sitting next to Thor as they watched the sunset.

"A group of dwarf settlers will move here, and a new king will be selected," Thor broke the silence. "I want you to be there at the ceremony," he asked, to which Oliver grunted in affirmation.

[2 weeks] 

It had been two weeks since the event with Mjolnir, and Oliver could be seen carefully removing a fire plant from one of his early planting plots. As he uprooted the plant, he couldn't help but think, "I really need a bigger plant bed." He then ground the plant into a paste before adding it to a cauldron boiling ice from the coldest place in the Savage Land. A small amount of powdered demon blood was added into the cauldron, which emitted a purple aura.

A/N Well, it turns out it was the second option. It's not Mjolnir who was hired to break and kill Oliver, but to toy with him, breaking all of his weapons and leaving him in the dark dimension (I hope that wasn't too specific). Anyways, if you were disappointed that this fight lasted barely for 2 chapters, don't worry. I stayed up late until 2 o'clock, writing a longer one which lasts for more than 5 chapters. In the meantime, I was thinking of writing an extension of the chapter between Oliver and Wanda where they go on an adventure together to form their bond, which I should have done long ago to have it pay off later. But it just goes to show that I am still learning. So for those who want to say:
