Marvel Person: You call this a sorcerer?

Chapter 33: The snap failed?

Of course, Ronan was just making a joke.

It's normal that Peter Parker didn't understand, after all, there's no board game called Yu-Gi-Oh! in this world.

After all, the man revered as the King of Games relied on this card to turn the tide several times.

Ronan also wanted to borrow that kind of luck.

As the two were talking, Thanos and Tony Stark had already started fighting.

Their hand-to-hand combat was extremely intense, with almost every punch landing squarely.

You punch me, I kick you; even Ronan can't help but grit his teeth watching.

It hurts, it hurts too much!

However, even with the Iron Man suit, Tony Stark is no match for Thanos in close combat.

He was quickly sent flying.

Thor, who had been hiding and developing for a long time, also rushed up, but he was no match for him.

Even with the combined power of Thunder Axe and Mjolnir, Thanos still managed to block it with just one hand.

Ronan, who was watching the show from the sidelines, couldn't help but shake his head.

"They really are brothers."

"The younger brother was mocked by Hulk, and the older brother couldn't beat Thanos either."

"Are these the gods of Asgard?"

Ronan's complaints were overheard by Peter Parker, who was standing nearby.

He couldn't help but frown.

Is now the time to vent?

We're already at a disadvantage. If Thanos gets the Infinity Gauntlet, we're all doomed!

Soon, the scenario that Peter Parker feared even more unfolded.

Thanos used his signature headbutt technique, sending Thor flying.

Then, with a back throw and a punch to the face, he finished off Steve Rogers.

At this point, there was no one around him.

Thanos fumbled for the Infinity Gauntlet, but before he could put it on, the woman with the cheat-like abilities descended from the sky.

He unleashed a barrage of attacks right in Thanos's face.

However, Thanos was still Thanos. He found an opening in Captain Marvel's defenses and threw her out.

The next second, Thanos put on the gauntlet.

Just as he was about to snap his fingers, Captain Marvel reappeared and grabbed his right hand firmly.

boom!

boom!

Thanos once again used his ultimate move, a headbutt attack.

This time, however, Captain Marvel simply smiled and was completely unaffected.

Captain Marvel even flew up, wanting to give Thanos another punch.

The two punches he had just received had given Thanos a sense of Captain Marvel's power, so this time, instead of taking them head-on, he took the Power Stone from the Infinity Gauntlet and sent Captain Marvel flying with a single punch.

The battle seemed to have settled at that moment.

Just as Thanos put the Power Stone back into the Infinity Gauntlet and his entire body was consumed by this immense power, Daqi, who had been slacking off—or rather, controlling the water—began searching among the crowd.

The index finger of his left hand was also slightly raised.

However, to his utter surprise, the protagonist he was looking for had fainted!

Tony Stark collapsed not just anywhere, but right next to a giant roc.

Snapped!

Ronan slapped his forehead.

That giant Kun seemed familiar to him.

Judging from the giant Kun's body, which was split into three pieces, it seemed to be that one.

Thinking of this, Ronan shifted his gaze to the other side and couldn't help but whistle.

Peter Parker, who was standing to the side, was almost in tears.

Brother, why are you whistling?

Thanos is about to snap his fingers!

Did you whistle to send me off on my final journey?

Finally, Thanos adapted to this power, and his right index finger and thumb clenched together.

"I am Destiny!"

Everyone stared at Thanos, who was striking a pose, his expression revealing utter despair.

Because they couldn't stop Thanos.

After struggling for so long, did they finally fail?

Just as Thanos finished speaking, a crisp snap of his fingers rang out.

At that moment, everyone closed their eyes.

The scene before them felt like a nightmare replaying itself, reminding them of that day five years ago.

On that very day, the same snap of fingers cost them their most important partner and family.

Steve Rogers stared at Thanos's position with utter despair. No amount of physical pain could compare to the emotional trauma he had suffered this time.

Are they going to lose them again?

Thanos smiled; his long-held dream had come true at this moment!

This Earth will no longer be an obstacle for him, nor will it affect his conquest and hegemony.

One second.

Two seconds

three seconds

At that moment, time seemed to stand still.

Everyone was looking in Thanos's direction, especially his right hand, which was wearing the Infinity Gauntlet.

Ten seconds

Fifteen seconds.

Twenty seconds.

Peter Parker touched his body, and began to ramble incoherently.

"No, I still have Aunt Mei, but she has no one to take care of her."

"And MJ, and Ned, and so many other people."

"I really don't want to leave this world."

He recalled the last time his body turned to ashes in mid-air and his consciousness dissipated.

That was his most real experience before he stepped into the embrace of death.

But he didn't want to experience it again.

Like him, many others were secretly sobbing.

Many people who had just reunited with their relatives and friends shed tears of resentment.

If they had tried a little harder, if they hadn't let Thanos get the gauntlet.

If

Unfortunately, it was all too late.

Ronan simply crossed his arms and quietly observed the others around him.

He couldn't help but sigh, especially after seeing Peter Parker's slightly exaggerated performance.

Peter, may you rest in peace.

"I will take care of MJ for you, and I will support your wife."

As he spoke, he reached out and patted Peter Parker on the shoulder.

He wore an extremely sorrowful expression.

Peter Parker was in tears, a mixture of anxiety about his impending death and reluctance to part with Ronan's words.

What do you mean by "you will take good care of MJ"?

Why don't you go and take care of some other people?

Peter Parker took a deep breath, preparing to deliver a deathbed speech.

However, before he could speak, he was stopped by the voice in his earpiece.

"Guys, calm down."

"Thanos' snap doesn't seem to have worked."

Has anyone you know disappeared?

Tony Stark's voice came through the headphones.

He didn't know when, but he woke up from his coma and learned about the incident from Friday.

Upon hearing this, Peter Parker, who was initially filled with grief and indignation, frantically touched his body.

Eh?

fine?

Then, he looked at the other people.

The familiar ashes did not appear; everyone remained unharmed in place.

"Guys, surely we're all lucky enough to have survived the snap?"

"Has anyone contacted the others?"

Tony Stark continued.

He was already on the verge of despair when he learned about this from Friday.

But he soon discovered the blind spot.

None of the people standing here have disappeared.

Could it be that I'm just that lucky this time?

"Guys, I think we should just give up."

"Look over there!"

Steve Rogers' reminders were always so timely.

All eyes turned to Thanos once again.

Thanos looked around in surprise, clearly not expecting things to turn out differently than he had anticipated.

He had clearly thought of everything when he snapped his fingers.

But why didn't anything happen?

He was somewhat at a loss.

However, at that very moment, Captain Marvel pounced on Thanos again and sent him flying with a single punch.

"What are you waiting for? Let's attack together!"
