Plus, it somehow manages to disappear at will, which would fit, since I guess it'd be easy to "hide" considering the walls are so high.

On the other hand, it seemed like Elen simply "took over" the body of a giant and it transformed into what was his giant persona, let's call. It still didn't make it 50 meters tall, so there's definitely something more there that we're still in the dark.

Spoiler for ch9:

I'd say it's whatever his father injected into him. Probably some DNA cocktail mix he put together from one of the giants. That's the only logical thing I can think of. Don't ask how he got it though...

I'm glad that he reverted back, since I could tell it was him from the start. Doubt I would continue reading further if he stayed in giant mode. This way it makes it more mysterious and also interesting to see the ramifications from those that witnessed what happened...
