Compared to Solim and Sylna, who live in Orvis Manor, they are much harder, and Elrond, who lives in Selwyn Castle, is much harder.

The Selwyns were no ordinary pure-blood family, this family was thriving, and due to the huge power they wielded in the Presbyterian Church, many of the old things in the family were still alive and well. This creates a problem: at Elrond's age, he can already be considered an old man in an ordinary wizarding family, and he can rely on the old to give orders, but in the Selwyn family, he is still a "child" - a child in his 60s.

Think about it, Elrond's father is alive, his grandfather is alive, his great-grandfather is alive, and his great-grandfather is alive. Where is Elrond's place to speak in such an environment? And the child doesn't have much say in a big family, this is the rule wherever it is placed, unless the child is talented and has done a lot of things that adults can't do, but look at Elrond, his two elder brothers are already great wizards, and he is not, which makes Elrond, who has not much say within the family, even more passive, so to speak, except for those wizards and house-elves of the younger generation, few people in the castle will listen to Elrond. Think about when Solim returned to the castle in his first year, the ghost named Cheetos looked down on Elrond, how many of the living could look down on him?

Elrond is a descendant of Selwyn's bloodline, but his strength and the work he is engaged in as a spell solver make Elrond not treated like a descendant at all. As mentioned earlier, the strange phenomenon of spellbreakers in the wizarding world: most wizards look down on the profession of spellbreakers, but these dedicated spellbreakers have indeed made indelible contributions to the improvement and invention of spells.

This is very puzzling, why are people who have contributed to the service looked down upon? Regarding this, if you think about the ancient Oriental countries, even doctors who treat diseases and save people can be looked down upon by people and regarded as a cheap profession. What's more, a job like a spell solver is highly professional, but it has little to do with the general public.

And there is a concept that is ingrained in the wizarding world - especially for a family like Selwyn, judging whether a wizard is powerful, judging whether a wizard is powerful, judging whether a wizard is powerful, there is only one thing to look at: that is, combat ability, to put it more bluntly - killing ability.

In this respect, wizards and Muggles are no different. Powerful forces will always lean towards killing.

If you think of the wizards who are good at killing as soldiers, spell solvers like Elrond, alchemists like Nicolame, or potions masters like Snape are the ones who make weapons, armor, and teach soldiers how to use them. A general who kills all sides on the battlefield will naturally gain more attention, and who will care who made this general, his weapons, and his armor? Who will care who teaches this general the skills of killing the enemy?

Coming into a family like Selwyn and working as a spell solver is like a billionaire family having a man sweep the streets, and it's normal to suffer a lot of white eyes.

But now it's different. To be exact, since Solim's magical riot at the age of four, and Sylna's ascension from a squib to a wizard, Elrond has not had a different place in the hearts of those old things who could have died a long time ago.

It is true that those elders of Elrond are indeed dark wizards, but dark wizards are not fools, nor do they only use their power to force others. Solim and Sylna were only close to Elrond, and everyone in the family knew about it, even the house-elves. Although Solim is only an illegitimate child, he is still a member of Selwyn, especially after Solim showed extraordinary talent, he was given the surname Selwyn, without the consent of those big men in the family, where could Solim use Selwyn's name in a grand manner?

This is especially true of Sirna's affairs: no one would believe that a young wizard who is only 11 years old can solve the problem of a squib, someone must have helped him, this kind of thing can be understood with a little thought. Besides, as long as the cause and effect of this matter is asked, Elrond can only honestly explain. Now Solim is even more extraordinary in the hearts of these big guys, with extraordinary talent, extraordinary intelligence, and ruthlessness at a young age - this is a reference to what Solim did in Sculle. Especially the last point is very pleasing to these old guys, after all, these old antiques are strong people who have come out of the sea of corpses and blood and all kinds of conspiracies, and they value this trait shown by Solim more, compared with Solim, the illegitimate son, there are few descendants in the family who can talk about it.

But that's what Elrond was worried about, he knew far better than Solim who the elders were. Compared to them, Voldemort is simply simple and kind, like Teletubbies.

Cadmus Selwyn, the longest-lived old guy in the Selwyn family. You know, when he was born, Nicolame had just invented the Philosopher's Stone a few years ago, and he could barely be regarded as a wizard of the same era as Nicolamay. Wizards like Selwyn would use the name of their family ancestor to express surprise or admiration, rather than calling Merlin like a normal wizard. Just like when he saw Solim's treasure packed from Tumbledown Alley at Hogwarts Elrond, he exclaimed, "Cadmus Ancestor is on top".

This old guy has lived from that very dark time to the present. Most of the old people are very stubborn, not to mention the "old man" like Cadmus, and the affairs of the family, as long as he speaks, it is the same. Elrond knew very well that the basilisk could be kept secret for a while, but not for a lifetime. At that time, the family would definitely have the idea of fighting the basilisk, and this kind of thing was the same no matter which family it was, it was just a difference between mild means and fierce means.

Judging from Elrond's understanding of these elders in the family, the latter one is properly gone. Because he has long been accustomed to giving orders, they have long been accustomed to being unrefuted. But what Solim would do when they demanded that Sylna hand over the basilisk was, to be honest, Elrond really wasn't sure.

After today's family meeting, Elrond's father told him that the family elders had a vague desire to see Solim and Sylna. Dragged over by Elrond on the grounds that Sylna was being treated at Orvis Manor, and although the bigwigs would not surrender themselves to Ovis Manor, Solim and Sylna couldn't stay there all the time. Healing for months?Ordinary wizards can, trying to use this way to get those magic masters is a dream, and it is impossible to get past it.

Elrond's question now is not whether to talk to Solim or the others, but whether to go over now. There must be a reason why the elders of those families want to see Solim, their time is precious, and it is impossible to want to see the offspring just because of a whim, even if the offspring is very good.

There are a lot of shady things on Solim, and Elrond is not sure if he will be seen, because he doesn't know if the things that Solim has done will have something to do with those big guys.

However, there is one thing that Elrond can still be sure of, and that is the problem between Solim and the Rich family, which is something that the elders will definitely ask about, and the heir of the Rich family is killed through a black glove duel, and this is what Solim is most famous for. Although the Rich family and the Selwyn family are both members of the Council of Thirteen, the highest body of the Presbyterian Church, and the Rich family is not very prosperous, as long as these bigwigs are willing to ask and are willing to pay some price for Solim, then this matter can be settled.

For a while, Elrond also had some impulses, wanting to ask the elders directly why they wanted to see Solim, but this impulse was quickly suppressed by him, and he decided to go to Orvis Manor early tomorrow morning to deal with some shady things on Solim first.

After all, it's a family, and even the dark wizard didn't say that he would use the Regent to take thoughts and spit out the truth as soon as he saw his offspring.
