An ordinary college student, soon to graduate and unscathed by the "hardships of society," found himself unprepared for the classic signs of Isekai—no dramatic lightning strike, no Truck-kun, nothing. It happened during the premiere of Avengers: Endgame. Just as Iron Man snapped his fingers on the big screen, he blacked out. When he opened his eyes again, he was in Asgard, at a banquet.
"Hey, where'd that guy in the back go?"
"Who knows? Maybe he snuck out early."
"Probably dusted by Tony, just like the rest."
"Haha!"
Originally, this could've been a dream come true—becoming his favorite superhero, son of Odin, heir to the throne of Asgard, with a loving family, a childhood sweetheart, and an army of loyal friends. But this new Thor knew the plot a little too well. He knew exactly how grim things would get.
Mother dies. Father dies. The Warriors Three die. His impulsive brother grows up… and then dies again. His older sister tries to kill him.
And that's not all—the girlfriend gone, the hammer gone, his eye gone, hair gone, the physique gone, Asgard… gone.
Under his father's rule, Asgard was a paradise, envied by the universe. But as soon as Thor took over, it crumbled by 90%, turning God's Realm into a small village. The people of Asgard had truly drawn the short straw; no wonder Heimdall would rather send the Hulk back than return himself…
Thinking about it all brought tears to Thor's eyes. Of all the people he could've become in this time-travel fiasco, why Thor? Why not Iron Man? He'd just have to build a new suit when bored, play the field, and marry a good woman in the end. If he messes up this badly in Asgard, Odin might just flay him alive.
Luckily, this was still early in the timeline—Odin and the Ancient One were both around, and although Thanos was growing bold, he wouldn't dare challenge them just yet. By Earth's timeline, it was 1995, right before Captain Marvel.
Thor smirked. If every superhero is a character in a game, then he's already millennia old. Meanwhile, Carol Danvers is about to reach full power in no time. He'd better make her acquaintance early on, get her contact info, and, well, form a "strategic alliance." (And it's totally not clinging to her power for protection. Totally not.)
"Congratulations, host! Transmigration successful! Superhero System has been bound. When the host encounters significant heroes or villains, a mission may trigger. Completing missions rewards the host accordingly."
"Each target can trigger a mission once. Mission abandonment will consume an attempt."
The system's announcement snapped Thor out of his thoughts. A system? Well then, Thor shall rise! He leapt up, fists clenched in excitement, before realizing he was still at the banquet and quickly sat back down.
Loki, sitting beside him, raised an eyebrow at his brother's odd behavior—one moment brooding, the next grinning like a fool. He rolled his eyes; this was classic Thor.
Thor focused on the system panel in front of him.
"Congratulations! You have triggered the Thor-related missions: Elegy of the Strongest! As the unluckiest superhero and one of the mightiest Avengers, Thor's growth is constantly paired with immense hardship. Choose one mission to complete and earn a reward!"
Mission Options:
Gain weight to 400 pounds. Reward: The strength of "Fat Thor." (Despite certain, er, setbacks, this version of Thor wields enough strength to challenge Thanos head-on.)
Challenge Thanos and kill Loki. Reward: Stormbreaker. (The mightiest weapon in the Marvel Universe, powerful enough to counter the Infinity Stones and kill Thanos.)
Destroy Mjolnir and lose an eye. Reward: Awaken Thunder Control. (Unlock the full power of thunder without reliance on Mjolnir. The hammer helps focus your strength, but true power lies within you. Losing Mjolnir unlocks your innate abilities.)
Thor stared at the mission list, his mouth twitching.
Mjolnir? He'd never give it up. Odin would crush his skull if he destroyed it, let alone lose an eye.
Stormbreaker was tempting, but he knew that relying on a weapon alone wouldn't be enough to beat Thanos in a fair fight. And, although Loki could be a handful, he was family.
So that left the first option. The system was clearly out to make his life difficult.
Still, at least gaining weight wasn't permanent. If he gained it, he could lose it, even if that meant living off salads for a few years. Thor squared his shoulders and decided.
"I choose Mission 1: gain weight to 400 pounds."
Note [ Hey reader, like always this is a translation and edited version of Marvel Strongest Thor, There is already someone uploaded all the chapter in Webnovel in the name Marvel Strongest Thor, but it is not edited, just translated raw. This is my version of this stories, i choose it because it is already completed, it only contain the MCU timeline until Endgame, maybe some comic reference here and there, and also the word count of each chapter is less than 1000 so i can finish edit this faster than the other. On P@treon.com/goldengaruda. I will update weekly but don't have fix schedule, But i will promise to upload at least 25 or more chapter weekly. That is all and thank you for the support]
