“George, I didn't expect what my second and third elder brothers said to be true. Where did you learn those magic tricks from?”
On the way out of the palace, Kailin Tsuilor pulled Lucy to George's side and asked.
With George's strength shown in the palace, she was still not her opponent, but if she were to enhance it by a hundred times, she would definitely be out of reach.
So she was very curious where George, a human, had learned so many powerful spells.
"Well, how to put it, I learned them from a mysterious person, but I'm not clear about who he is."
George spoke casually.
Such things, he couldn't explain, he could only make stuff up.
After all, no one can expose it.
Even if he said that Eru Iluvator taught it, as long as Eru Iluvator did not come out specifically to deny it, no one could prove it.
"The mysterious person, could it be the Hunter God Oromë Aldaron? I've heard he often travels around Middle-earth."
Kailin Tsuilor somewhat puzzledly analyzed:
"But I haven't heard that he is proficient in such light and giant magic. Could it be another deity?"
"George, the little story you told is quite interesting. Was it a real event, or did you make it up? Are there any similar stories?"
Lucy had no interest in magic or battles, but she was very interested in George's little story about the Snaga in the cave. She had never heard such an interesting story before.
"I heard this from others."
George's eyes flickered:
"We have many such interesting stories over there. If you are interested, you can come and exchange at our school. I can tell you slowly."
For example, there is also a similar little story called Snaga sits in the cave and observes the sky."
"Snaga sits in the cave and watches the sky?"
Lucy's beautiful eyes were full of curiosity.
George spoke slowly:
"One day, a Snaga was working in the cave when suddenly a bat transformed into a vampire and fell from the sky."
He spoke to the working Snaga: "I flew over a thousand miles, I'm thirsty. Go get me some blood."
The Snaga who had never left the cave replied in disbelief: "Don't exaggerate. The hole in the top of the cave is only that big. Do you need to fly so far?"
The vampire laughed heartily: "You ignoramus half-orc, the sky is boundless and vast!"
Snaga smiled idiotically and replied: "I've been working in the cave every day, I can see the sky with my eyes open. I won't make a mistake."
The vampire cursed: "You idiot. If you don't believe it, wait until you join our army and leave the cave to fight against Elves."
"I understand, the meaning of this story is similar to the one you mentioned in the palace. It's meant to express the idea of having a narrow perspective and limited knowledge."
The sound of Lucy's silver bell-like laughter rang out, causing the eligible heirs of the noble elves who wanted to marry her to widen their eyes in surprise.
They had never seen Princess Lucy so happy as she was today, but unfortunately, her laughter was not for them but for a mere human.
Alright, this human is indeed quite extraordinary. He cannot be described as just a mere one.
"Princess Lucy, you are very intelligent."
George gave Lucy a thumbs up.
Of course it's like that. A well-informed person, and one who sits and observes the sky from a well, just with a slight twist to make it more suitable for the current world and easier for people in this world to understand.
He talked to Lucy about these things not to flirt with her, but to attract her to attend his school and exchange magic in the future.
Lucy is even more powerful than Kailin Tsuilor, with the bloodline of a Maiar and a lineal descendant of an elven king. Her enchantments can even hypnotize Mglos, having received the true teachings of Melian.
If he could become a teacher at the school, it would be good for both the students in the school and himself.
Lucy also raised her thumb in a gesture of approval like a curious child:
"This gesture in your human world represents intelligence, right?"
"Mhm, you can understand it like that."
George smiled and nodded.
Lucy pointed her thumb towards George:
"You're also very smart. Your human race is quite interesting."
"God damn it, doesn't he want to hit on my daughter!"
There, Thengge saw his daughter Lucy laughing heartily beside George, and his face instantly displayed a dangerous expression.
His precious daughter falling in love with a human, that was something he absolutely couldn't accept.
Even if this human is a hero, possessing powerful magic strength, it's not enough.
Because humans have a lifespan of only a few decades, while the elves have an endless life, once a human dies, his daughter would undoubtedly be heartbroken.
Elves have two ways to die. One is to be killed by someone else, and the other is to lose the will to live themselves, which will also cause them to die and return to Manos' hall.
To put it more harshly, even if humans and elves die together, their souls cannot meet in Manos' hall at the end.
After death, the souls of humans do not belong to Manos, but directly go to Eru Iluvatar.
Fortunately, his thoughts didn't last long as they had already arrived at the entrance of the Thousand-stone cave palace.
The grey elves outside, seeing King Thengge of the elven court and various elven nobles appearing in the city at the same time, all curiosity-driven, gathered around.
"George, can you show your magic now?"
Thengge said to George.
At this point, he had stopped referring to George as a human and was now using his name.
Clearly, the strength George had just shown had already attracted his attention.
"I'm going to cast the Giant Magic of Overall Enlargement now!"
George's body shimmered with magical arrays, and his body began to rapidly expand. Soon, he transformed into a giant over a hundred meters tall.
As he clapped his hands together, the wind he generated sent the clouds in the sky flying away.
It's easy to imagine how powerful the impact would be if he were to slam a single punch.
"How huge! He reminds me of the God of Battle, Tocas. Could it be that Tocas taught him magic?"
Kailan Tsuilor couldn't help but exclaim loudly as she watched the George who had transformed into a hundred-meter giant.
She had once heard her grandfather say that the God of Battle, Tocas, could transform into a giant over several thousand meters in size to fight.
During the First Battle against Morgoth, it was Tocas who dealt a severe blow to Morgoth, using the divine chain Angainor forged by Oromë, to bind Morgoth and take him back to Valinor for judgment.
Besides Kailan Tsuilor, Thengge and all the other elves present were all shocked.
"Exchange! We must exchange!"
Since humans can learn such powerful magic, then elves can also.
However, the shock George gave to the elves was not limited to this.
"I've heard there are many dark creatures born from Morgoth in the Valley of Death. Today, I will turn the Valley of Death into the Valley of Light!"
As George, now in giant form, brought his hands together:
"Light Magic · The Law of Fairies!"
