Chapter 110 Giant Eagle Delivers Its Cub
Dui breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the giant eagle had no intention of attacking him.

But then he realized it and was even more surprised: "You can speak? No, I can understand what you say?"

A strange look appeared in the giant eagle's sharp eyes.

"I am the messenger of Manwë, King of the Valar. I am the King of Birds, so naturally I can communicate with all birds."

"But what are you? Why do you look like an owl but smell like a human?"

"I'm not a thing, ah, I'm a thing..."

Dui only felt that his brain capacity had become smaller after he turned into a bird, and he quickly introduced himself.

"I am the wizard Doir. When Gandalf and I crossed the Misty Mountains together, you gave us a ride. Do you remember?"

The Eagle suddenly realized: "I remember you, the wizard who was with Gandalf. You killed Azog, King of the Orcs."

"Yes, it's me." Dui nodded.

"Then how did you become a bird? I remember you were a human before."

"Uh, it's a magical transformation that allows me to turn into an animal."

"Sounds similar to the Skin Changer."

……

They met Dui, a wizard who could turn into a bird and communicate with them.

The giant eagle was very interested in Dui and invited him to visit its nest.

At the invitation of the giant eagle, Dui came to where they lived, which was on a cliff not far from the High Pass and the Goblin Town. There was a rock platform there like a wide shelf.

On top were giant bird nests, made of thick branches stacked in an interlocking pattern, lined with even thinner branches and feathers, and even with whole dire wolf pelts.

When Dui landed on the bird's nest, he felt like he had arrived in a land of giants, surrounded by giant eagles that looked at him with interest and curiosity.

The Eagle King welcomed his arrival.

The Giant Eagle is intelligent and understands the languages ​​of Elves and Humans, but cannot communicate directly.

Now that they have met Dui, a wizard who can transform into an owl and communicate with them, the giant eagles are also very curious.

The giant eagles brought him fruits grown in the Misty Mountains to entertain him, and even caught a half-dead wolf.

Dui was a little overwhelmed by the enthusiastic attitude.

In the eagle's nest, there are some newly born eaglets, some of which are bigger than Dui and chirp very actively.

However, Dui noticed that one of the eaglets was alone and looked very thin and had a weak voice compared to its other brothers.

It looks like it is born weak and cannot compete with other brothers at all, so it eats the least.

Their parents seemed very indifferent and had no intention of taking any special care of them.

Dui frowned slightly. He knew that in nature, only the fittest survive, so there would be cases where ordinary eagles would abandon sick and weak eaglets or even eat them.

But the giant eagle is an intelligent race, would it do the same?

But this was the Giant Eagle's internal affairs, so he couldn't say anything.

The Eagle King seemed to know what Dui was thinking and sighed:
"We, the Giant Eagle Clan, live in the Misty Mountains. Every day we have to fight against the Wargs, Orcs, and even more dangerous creatures. Only the strongest of our clan can survive in these mountains.

The weak are destined to be eliminated, and perhaps returning to Manwe's embrace as soon as possible is the best outcome for them."

"But if you, Wizard Duir, have compassion, you can take this poor child away and provide him with a place to stay. This may be a new beginning for him."

"I take him away?!" Dui couldn't believe it. How could such a situation of sending a child away happen?
The Eagle King nodded.

The eagle's parents had no objections.

Dui looked at the skinny and pitiful eaglet and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Little one, will you come with me?"

Dui turned back into human form, took out some dried meat from his pocket and handed it to him to eat, and asked the young eagle, who was said to be less than three years old.

The Giant Eagle clan has a long growth period, and their infancy and childhood are also longer than that of other clans.

However, even though it was less than three years old, the eaglet was able to understand what Dui said.

The young eagle, who had been hungry for a long time, became jealous when he saw the dried meat. When other brothers were about to grab the food, he quickly gobbled up the dried meat.

Then he looked at the birdman in front of him with good intentions, then looked at his parents with cold eyes, and his brothers who were fighting madly.

Finally nodded.

Dui still took the eaglet away.

To this end, he deliberately used the Traceless Extension Spell to expand the space inside a purse to a diameter of ten meters.

This is the limit of what he can do at the moment.

But it is big enough for the eaglet to live in.

Along with the eaglet came an eagle's nest given by the Eagle King. It was said that this was the nest where the Eagle King had hatched and grown the eaglets, and it was built with fragrant wood.

In addition, Dui also received feathers, wolf skins, and eggshells left by some eaglets from the giant eagles.

Giant eagle feathers can be used to make wand cores, and eggshells can be used to make potions.

As for the wolf skin...it can be used as a cushion.

After saying goodbye to the giant eagles, Dui turned into an eagle owl again, grabbed the purse containing the eaglets and the eagle's nest, and continued flying eastward.

As for the young eagle in the purse space, it was now busy eating all the food stored in Dui's space.

For him who has never had a full day since hatching, nothing is more important than food!

So the little guy, who would follow whoever fed him, felt no sadness at being abandoned and only focused on eating. Dui flew over the Misty Mountains, but did not fly directly towards Lonely Mountain. Instead, he circled above the Beon family's house for a moment before landing.

"Who is it?" Beorn noticed something unusual in the sky. Seeing that it was an eagle owl flying over, he still did not let down his guard.

However, when the eagle owl landed on the ground and turned into a human form, Beorn's vigilance disappeared instantly.

"Beorn, long time no see!" Dui greeted with a smile.

Seeing that it was Dewi, Beorn also showed a happy smile on his face.

"So it's you, Doyle."

"Was that your animal form just now? If we skin-changers didn't all transform into giant bears, I would have thought you were one of my kind."

Dui smiled and nodded.

"I just happened to be passing by you, so I came down to visit."

"This is the Animagus transformation I just mastered, but it can only transform into ordinary animals. It can't compare to your transformation ability."

Beorn disagreed and said enviously, "I really want to become a flying animal. That would be much cooler than a clumsy bear that can only run on the ground!"

"Well, please come in and sit down. I haven't heard from you since you left here. Tell me what happened during this time."

Dui naturally would not refuse the master's invitation.

What's more, he came here this time with the purpose of asking Beorn for advice.

See if you can get some inspiration from the skin-changer-to-bear transformation to level up the Animagus.

Dui is not just satisfied with turning into an owl, he also wants to possess more powerful magical creatures Animagus, such as phoenix, thunderbird, fire dragon, unicorn, etc.

Of course, now that his Animagus is an owl, a bird, he has to first rule out irrelevant animals such as dragons and unicorns.

After all, no matter how much an owl evolves, it can never turn into a species like a fire dragon or a unicorn.

On the contrary, powerful avian magical creatures such as the Phoenix and Thunderbird may have a slight possibility of evolution.

After all, there’s a saying that goes, “A sparrow can turn into a phoenix.” Maybe an owl can do the same?

Although it is a very unreliable idea, if it succeeds, the rewards will be huge.

The Phoenix possesses the ability to be immortal. Once it ages or dies, even if it is struck by Avada Kedavra, it will be reborn from the ashes.

This ability is something one can only dream of.

The second is the Thunderbird, which has the power to change the celestial phenomena, can summon thunder and storms, and can even predict danger...

In Beorn's hut,
Dewi also told Beorn everything that had happened during this period.

When Beorn heard that Thorin had lost his mind due to dragon disease, he snorted coldly.

"These dwarves are always so greedy and blind. Even if the treasure tainted with dragon magic is the inducement, isn't it also his own problem?"

Beorn had never liked dwarves.

The reason they were able to be taken in was because both sides had a common enemy.

Now that Thorin has gone mad, Beorn thinks it is his own fault.

However, Beorn was not very interested in the situation of the dwarves, but instead paid more attention to another thing.

"Did you really tame the dragon?" Beorn asked with his eyes wide open in disbelief.

Dui was no longer surprised by this expression and nodded with a smile.

"This is truly unheard of and truly astonishing!" Beorn exclaimed, looking at him with admiration. "You were able to subdue the evil dragon. Before long, your name will be known throughout Middle-earth!"

"I imagine you'll soon have a very honorable title, perhaps 'Dragonbinder'? Or 'Lord of Smaug'?"

"But if you ask me, 'Dragon Rider' is the most suitable. After all, you are the only one in Middle-earth who can control a dragon!"

Beorn was already enthusiastically thinking of a future title for Dewi.

Seeing that Beorn was half-joking about his title, Dewi took the opportunity to ask him about the principle of the skin-changer's transformation.

At this Beorn shook his head.

"Our ability to transform as skin-changers comes from the bloodline of our ancestors. Legend has it that our ancestors were humans who lived in the Misty Mountains. They were blessed by the spirits of nature and thus gained the ability to transform into bears.

I don't know if this rumor is true or not, because turning into a giant bear is a natural thing for us, and we will awaken when we reach a certain age. So I don't know much."

Dui was mentally prepared for this and was not too disappointed.

However, he still asked Beorn for a favor and asked him to transform on the spot to see if he could find anything.

Beorn did not refuse.

But before transforming, he still had to take off his clothes.

Beorn's transformation is different from Dewi's Animagus. He will melt the clothes on his body into his skin, so once he transforms, his clothes will be torn.

So Dui could only try his best to ignore the naked man in front of him, and silently said to himself that it was just for research.

Oh, my god! My eyes are going to get stye!

Dui wailed in his heart.

When Beorn was ready, he began to adjust his emotions, and as if his anger was rising, veins began to pop out on his forehead and his muscles twitched.

He gasped and clenched his fists. His body swelled rapidly and his skin grew thick, black hair.

Finally, a huge black bear as big as a house stood in front of Dui.
