"Well, a long time ago, there was this tailor," Xander explained, frantically digging in his patchy memory for the details. "He made himself a treat of bread and jam or something, and the flies were attracted to the smell and kept trying to land on his bread. So he chased them around until he finally held still, and when they landed next to the bread, he swatted them with a cloth and killed seven of them with one snap. He was so excited that he boasted on the street about killing ten in one blow. Well, the ruler of the city was trying to figure out a giant problem and was looking for warriors, so when the soldiers heard the tailor boasting, they grabbed the tailor and hauled him off to talk to the ruler. Well, the tailor was a little stupid and thought when the ruler questioned him, he knew what he was talking about - or maybe the tailor knew and was just boasting, I can't remember - so the tailor told him about killing seven in one blow and was very proud. The ruler got excited and told him, 'great, then you're off to kill the giant! If you killed ten, one should be easy!' If the tailor told the truth then, he'd get killed for lying, so off he went. He picked up some stuff along the way, and he got to the giant, he tricked the giant into a series of tests. Could he squeeze blood from a stone? 'Course it can't be done, but the tailor had an orange in his pocket that he pretended was a stone and squeezed that. Which could throw a stone farther? The tailor tosses a bird instead, which flew away. There were a couple of others that I can't remember, but in the end, the giant lets the tailor sleep in his house. Well, the bed was too big, so the tailor slept in a corner. Good thing, too, because the giant tried to kill him during the night by crushing the bed. The next morning, when the giant sees the tailor walking around and perfectly fine, he ran away, never to be seen again. So the tailor went back to his city, and they thought he had killed the giant, and he didn't try to correct them at all. He did a bunch of other stuff, too, like tricking a bunch of ogres to attack each other instead of him, and catching a unicorn and stuff, but basically, he won all of his battles by being tricky and thinking smart."
