Marvel: Wonka's Chocolate Factory

Chapter 152 The Dark Elf Who Saw the Dawn

The banquet had barely begun when Earth's objectives were already fully achieved. Without any hesitation, Malekith accepted everything.

Willy Wonka felt that he was eager to agree to these conditions without any bargaining, as if satisfying Willy Wonka was the most important thing at the moment.

Malekith: "Willy Wonka, you have no idea how much we Dark Elves suffered after being defeated by Asgard."

"We can only hide in the dark. If we show our faces even slightly, we will be the focus of Odin's attention. Our population is less than one ten-thousandth of that of the Evergreen."

"As you can see from Svartalfheim, apart from this palace, everything else is in ruins. The long war has exhausted the dark elves."

"Being able to live in peace has always been our long-cherished wish."

Tony, however, had a different opinion. He had just seen the Dark Elves' fleet, which was fully prepared and ready to go, and it didn't look friendly at all.

"Chief Malekith, were you preparing for an expedition when we arrived? With so many warships, it looks like you're ready to wage a large-scale interstellar war."

Malekith didn't hide anything at all. He nodded and said, "That's right, Tony. If you hadn't come, the main force of our Dark Elves would already be heading to Asgard."

"We are sworn enemies, and we cannot let go of any opportunity to completely suppress Asgard. We want to take this opportunity to utterly destroy Asgard."

Malekith had no intention of hiding anything; he spoke frankly and honestly.

"If possible, we Dark Elves also want to be rulers of the Nine Realms. If Odin can sit in that position, why can't I, Malekith, sit in it?"

Malekith smiled apologetically at Willy Wonka, and continued somewhat embarrassedly, "Willy Wonka, I didn't know you back then, and I don't have those feelings anymore."

Willy Wonka didn't say anything, but simply picked up his glass and clinked it with Malekith's. "Come on, Chief Malekith, all our feelings are in this drink. Cheers!"

One of the reasons Willy Wonka brought Alex along was because he had experience, having previously run the Totland Candy Store in Asgard.

Now that an agreement has been reached with Malekith to establish a Tottoland flagship store in Swaltafheim, the position of store manager has naturally fallen to the experienced Alex Browning.

The leader discusses the direction of the decision-making process, while the subordinates finalize the details of the cooperation.

After the banquet, Algrim took Alex to choose a suitable location to open a shop.

Tony also had Jarvis control an Iron Man suit to analyze the environment of Svartalfheim, so that he could design a suitable reconstruction plan.

This is a huge order that could propel Stark Industries to new heights. Although the Dark Elves are currently few in number, that's due to Asgard's suppression, which has historical reasons.

Svartalfheim is a vast territory, and the dark elves will multiply rapidly once their suppression is lifted, leaving many parts of their homeland in need of rebuilding.

The sheer scale of the project was enough for Stark Industries to accumulate sufficient initial capital, both in terms of technology and universal currency.

Willy Wonka prepared gifts for the Dark Elves; he was a generous merchant, and a quarter of the total goods he brought would be given away as gifts.

Willy Wonka was also moved with compassion. He had not come into contact with many alien races, but among them, the Dark Elves were the most miserable and had the worst fate.

The dark elves are suffering. Even their leader Malekith, what can he possibly eat?

They're nothing more than pickled toads, giant spiders, or even underground fungi.

At the banquet, Malekith recommended Spider Bread to Willy Wonka, who ate one out of curiosity.

The raw material turned out to be a poisonous spider, and the taste was indescribable.

If this is the Dark Elf's taste, then Willy Wonka is prepared to face the situation where he can't find a way out, and he'll simply consider this trip as making friends.

However, when Willy Wonka brought out the chocolate and mousse cake, it attracted the attention of many dark elves.

In particular, Malekith's expression while tasting the product made Willy Wonka realize that it was definitely popular.

"Open it! This store absolutely has to open!"

Malekith's eyes welled up with tears after he finished eating. What kind of life had the Dark Elves been living before?

What bad intentions could a food company possibly have?

Malekith thought the Tottoran Group was fantastic; after retreating into darkness for millennia, the Dark Elves had forgotten a great deal of knowledge.

This includes how to live in the sunlight, as Svartafheim is now shrouded in eternal darkness, filled with black forests, swamps, caves, and the air of decay.

In such an environment, dark elves are completely unable to obtain normal food. They can only adapt to this harsh environment and reproduce generation after generation in it.

Malekith seemed to never be full, as he sampled each of the kinds of goods that Willy Wonka had brought.

From pork floss cakes to chocolates, from cream cakes to marshmallows, from ice cream to popcorn, he ate them one by one with a kind of reverence, as if he were not eating food, but a bright future.

"Willy Wonka, we want everything here. I think we can discuss the number of stores; one store might not be enough."

Malekith immediately gave Algrim the order: "Find the best location in Svaltafheim and give it to Alex. Build a shop in each of the locations you find."

"This is an opportunity. The dark elves need these shops and need to maintain trade relations with the Tottoland Group."

Upon receiving the instructions, Algrim immediately understood Malekith's meaning: this was not something to be taken lightly and had to be handled seriously.

No Asgardians were involved in this voyage; all the crew members on the spaceship were Earthlings, belonging to two major corporations.

With the help of technology, they are able to maintain network communication with Earth.

In particular, the number of viewers in the live stream surged from 400 million to 3 billion after the spacecraft arrived in Swartaffheim.

The dark elves' appearance, so different from yet similar to humans, caused a huge uproar across the entire Earth.

Unexpectedly, when these two business tycoons said they were going to do business, they actually meant it.

In particular, these Earthlings learned that the Tottoland Group's products were exceptionally popular in Svartafheim and were already preparing to open a candy store.

Stark Industries has already secured the contract for the entire Svartafheim renovation project.

The moment this news broke, everyone went crazy.

I thought that successfully building a spaceship and stepping into space was already a momentous event, but I didn't expect there to be more surprises!
