George did not stop the Abomination's appearance, knowing that it would allow the Hulk to reemerge and finally crush Banner's resolve. It also provided an opportunity to recruit a powerful new gatekeeper for the school.
While the Abomination didn't gain strength the angrier it got like the Hulk, its overall power wasn't to be underestimated.
What made the Abomination better than the Hulk was its ability to switch seamlessly between the Abomination and Blonsky without any of the conflicting personalities or behavioral shifts.
But George hadn't done nothing. When the Abomination sent Stern flying, he had been careful not to let any blood from the Hulk's blood sample fall on Dr. Stern's head, preventing the birth of the "Big Boss."
Afterward, when the Abomination leapt from the lab, George made his way to the laboratory and cast a Memory Charm on the unconscious Stern.
"Obliviate!"
The Memory Charm took effect, and George erased all of Stern's memories related to Banner and the green gene.
Once that was done, he tossed Stern and the unconscious soldiers from the lab out into the street. Then, with a wave of his hand, he cast another spell toward the laboratory:
"Fiendfyre!"
Blue flames erupted from his hand, engulfing the entire laboratory in fire.
George didn't want the military to get their hands on the Hulk's blood, which could lead to serious trouble later. He decided to burn everything to ashes.
While the Abomination rampaged through the streets, drawing the military's attention, no soldiers were available to help put out the fire in the lab.
Even if they had been, it wouldn't have helped. George used Fiendfyre, a magical fire that could not be extinguished by ordinary water.
Within just a few minutes, the entire laboratory was reduced to a pile of ashes, including incombustible materials like stone and steel.
Once the fire was out, he flew over to the street where the battle between the green and yellow giants was still raging.
It turned out that while George had been dealing with the aftermath, Banner had leapt from the plane to stop the Abomination's destruction, transforming back into the Hulk.
"It's time to wrap this up!"
Seeing the Hulk riding the Abomination and giving him a pounding, only to be kicked away by the Abomination, George flapped his wings and swooped between the two giants. He cast an amplification spell and shouted:
"You two! Stop fighting! If you keep going, you'll level the whole street!"
The sudden loud voice caught both the Abomination and the Hulk off guard. Not only them, but even General Ross in the helicopter and the surviving soldiers were stunned.
"Who is that?"
"He's George, the headmaster of the Academy of Superpowers!"
At that moment, Betty in the helicopter recognized George. She had seen him earlier that afternoon.
She still vividly remembered his water-to-coffee trick and his ability to disappear in an instant.
"Academy of Superpowers? I've never heard of it."
General Ross furrowed his brow. This wasn't the time to worry about that, though. What mattered now was figuring out whether this winged guy was an ally or an enemy.
"Is he here to help?"
"Probably… I think so."
Betty responded uncertainly.
They turned their attention back to the battle below.
"Where did this bird-man come from? Mind your own business!"
The Abomination roared in anger and jumped up, swiping at George in midair.
Anyone who tried to stop him was as good as dead.
"His temper's a bit much."
As the Abomination's massive hand swiped toward him, capable of flattening a car, George smiled and pointed his finger:
"Reverse Hook!"
A red magical beam shot out and struck the Abomination, instantly flipping his body upside down and suspending him in midair.
"How is this happening?"
The Abomination reached out, trying to grab whatever was lifting his feet off the ground, but found nothing. He struggled, but realized that without any point of support, his strength was useless in the air.
For a moment, he was completely baffled.
After about five or six seconds, the Abomination crashed to the ground.
"You really should lose some weight."
George wasn't surprised by this outcome.
His alloy bracelet didn't amplify the power of his spells, so using Reverse Hook to lift a creature as large as the Abomination was somewhat challenging.
Of course, creatures like the Abomination likely had some resistance to magic as well.
But for George, this wasn't a problem.
Upon landing, the Abomination, even more enraged at being humiliated, roared and picked up a small car that had been torn in half, throwing it at George in midair.
George waved his hand, activating his superpower. The two halves of the car split apart mid-flight, not even coming close to hitting him.
With a flap of his wings, he descended to the ground. Seeing the Abomination charging toward him, George raised a hand and cast:
"Leg Lock!"
The Leg Lock spell took effect, causing the Abomination's legs to freeze. He tripped and slid across the ground like a dog, coming to a stop right in front of George.
Before the Abomination could break free using sheer force, George began casting Sleep Charms on his head.
"Sleep, sleep, fall down!"
Whereas it had taken over a hundred Sleep Charms to subdue the Iron Dragon Gajiru, it only took thirty to put the Abomination into a deep sleep.
As a mage, dealing with a brute like the Abomination was incredibly easy.
He couldn't fly, didn't have any special attacks, and relied purely on brute strength in close combat. His massive size made him an easy target, only a bit stronger than the giants from the Harry Potter universe.
After dealing with the Abomination, George turned to look at the Hulk.
The Hulk wasn't a mindless monster; he was just very temperamental. At his core, he wasn't malicious, and as long as he wasn't provoked, he wouldn't indiscriminately kill.
Seeing that George had already subdued the Abomination, the Hulk gave a glance toward Betty in the helicopter before turning to leap away.
"Hold on, let me borrow a few strands of your hair."
George opened his wings and quickly accelerated to the top of the Hulk's head. With a swift motion, he used his knife-like magic to cut a handful of hair, storing it in his Transformative Space.
This action clearly angered the Hulk. He turned and punched toward George, but George quickly retreated and dodged the attack.
"You can change back now!"
With a slight smile, George pointed at the Hulk.
"Giggle and LOL!"
The Giggle and LOL spell struck the Hulk, making his anger evaporate immediately. The Hulk threw his head back and started laughing uproariously.
As he laughed, his massive form quickly shrank, and he transformed back into Bruce Banner.
The Hulk's strength increases the angrier he gets, but his weakness is equally obvious—once his anger fades, he reverts to Banner.
That's why George's Giggle and LOL spell was perfect for dealing with the Hulk.
Additionally, the Hulk had little resistance to soul and mental magic. In the movies, he was easily controlled by the Scarlet Witch, Wanda.
Therefore, if George had used a Soul Theft spell, he could have controlled the Hulk, or even used mental abilities to take effect.
"Restore to Original!"
With a Restoration Charm, George fixed Banner's clothes and then asked,
"Well? Are you interested in joining our Academy of Superpowers now?"
"I'll join!"
Banner stood up, looked at his clothes, and nodded firmly.
