Big Boss In The Harry Potter World

Chapter 21 Go Home



Truth be told, Solim never had Christmas. And he was also wondering why wizards had to celebrate ordinary people's festivals. What's even more peculiar is that even Schuyler will take fifteen days off for this. You know, originally Solim had no concept of these Western festivals, but since he went to school in Schuyler, he immediately had a clear and profound concept of Christmas: a full fifteen-day holiday without soul-robbing No Cruciatus Curse, no sneak attacks from other people, no need to sleep with a wand at night. These fifteen days can be said to be the most relaxing period of the year for Solim.

Yes, for Solim, Christmas is a day of comfort without the Imperius and Cruciatus Curse.

And for the famous savior, this Christmas may be his best Christmas ever. After all, referring to Harry's experience in the past few years, every Christmas is a kind of torture for him. As long as he didn't stay with the Dursleys, Harry didn't care how he spent the holiday, so he happily signed the detention list.

But he's not alone, his best friend: Ronald and his two... um, three older brothers will stay and spend Christmas at Hogwarts. It's not about looking after Harry of course, it's just that their parents are going to Romania this Christmas to visit their son and older brother, Charlie Weasley.

While Harry and Ronald were wandering the empty school, Solim was back at Selwyn Castle - he wouldn't call it home.

Selwyn's castle is located near the Isle of Man, and is hidden by magic. Passing ships will actively avoid it, so as to avoid being discovered by ordinary people.

The island called Neastor by the wizards cannot be found on the maps of ordinary people. In Greek, Neastor means unknown. After all, this island is only open to people from the Selwyn family, and very few people who are qualified to come here. So for most wizards, everything here is unknown.

Solim is not very familiar with this place, because he spends most of his time in the castle learning theoretical knowledge and practicing spell casting. Even if it wasn't familiar, Solim knew that approaching the castle casually could cause trouble.

Compared with Hogwarts, Selwyn's castle is indeed not majestic enough. It doesn't have tall towers like Hogwarts, nor is it full of life like Hogwarts.

If you let an ordinary person who doesn't understand magic look at it, Selwyn's castle is definitely a standard template for the headquarters of evil creatures in fairy tales: even on a sunny day, the light will not shine on the castle-even though the country of Ying It's rare in hell that it doesn't rain, but there are always sunny days. The whole castle seems to be in another world, the sun will hide from the castle, the light will not shine on it, and compared with the bright colors around the castle, the castle itself is like a black and white photo-dead and lifeless.

And this is the place where Solim lived, a castle that one would instinctively want to stay away from from a distance. And he will continue to live here until Solim is able to protect himself.

Solim stands in front of the statue at the intersection: this statue is the first patriarch of the Selwyn family, the base of the statue is densely engraved with his life story, and such statues line both sides of the road leading to the castle. They are all well-known wizards from the Selwyn family—whether they are villains full of crimes, great men who have made outstanding contributions to the wizarding world, or strange people who are dedicated to studying and studying magic. Regardless of good or evil, as long as it is Selwyn who is well-known in the wizarding world, their statues will be placed on both sides of the road.

Selwyn has been passed down for a long time, which leads to one thing: there are more and more statues, and the road to the castle is getting longer and longer. This road full of statues is enchanted, it will not become crowded because of the increase of statues, it will only get longer and longer. It would take thirty minutes to walk to the gates of the castle if it was long enough to walk on two legs.

Sitting in the carriage, Solim looked at the statue outside the window, but what he thought about was how to sneak into the basement unknowingly after returning to the castle. Not only did his cheap father's family live in this castle, but several of his uncle's families also lived in this castle with them, adding up to nearly thirty people. If counting the wizards with foreign surnames who passed the family test and joined, there could be more than fifty people. Barring those alien wizards, Selwyn could count on one hand who could give Solim good looks.

Solim is unwilling to come back here. The environment and history here have created the dark wizard in the eyes of most ordinary wizards. And these people are almost all his relatives, and most of them are from Sigule. So the way they greet each other is kind of scary: give you a Cruciatus Curse or Imperius Curse when you're not looking - they call it a joke.

Indeed, it is no big deal for a wizard who can graduate from Schuyler to suffer from the Cruciatus Curse. Everyone has long been used to the Cruciatus Curse. As for the Imperius Curse, huh, it is simply wishful thinking to use the Imperius Curse to easily control a wizard who graduated from Sculle. They'll break free of the Imperius Curse so quickly, they won't even respond to your Imperius Curse at all, and then turn around and give you an Avada. After all, more than ten years of experience in Schuyler has given these wizards amazing resistance and immunity to the Cruciatus Curse and Imperius Curse.

Most of these relatives of Solim are a little bit out of order - that's normal. Whether it is the atmosphere of the Selwyn family or the environment of Schuyler, if it can create a normal wizard, it is called abnormal.

And these... abnormal relatives are not exactly friendly to Solim. The grown-ups disdain to speak to Solim, and if they do speak, it is some extremely ugly and strongly insulting language, and if Solim's grandfather is present, they will restrain themselves. But the peers who are about the same age as Solim are not so restrained. It is common for them to pull out their wands and attack Solim in the castle. They take pleasure in bullying and making fun of Solim, and they never get tired of it. Of course, they held back a bit after Solim took out a nuisance at school in a black-glove duel. But it was just not hitting him with the wand anymore.

"Oh, Solim, are you back?"

At the sound, Solim's body relaxed - he was about to draw his wand.

"Cheetos? Oh, yes, I'm back. Reluctantly." Solim shrugged.

A white, somewhat transparent figure emerged from the side wall - it was a ghost. Compared to people, Solim gets along well with the ghosts in the castle. Of course, there are also a few ghosts who are very disgusted with the identity of Solim's illegitimate child. These ghosts in the castle were all surnamed Selwyn during their lifetime. In other words, these ghosts in the castle were the ancestors of the Selwyn family.

"Be careful, Adelaide and his brothers are very excited to hear that you are coming back today. Let's go from the No. 3 laboratory. There was no one there when I just came here." After finishing speaking, Cheetos Just floated ahead of Solim and led the way.

"How's life at Hogwarts?" Cheetos asked.

"Not bad, no, it's good." Even when he was walking, Solim's left hand was always ready.

"Yeah, no matter where it is, it's better than that shitty place." Cheetos can be regarded as the most compatible ghost with Solim, which probably has something to do with his experience: Cheetos also "used" to be a student of Skuller before his death. Saying "used to be" is not because he is dead now, but because Cheetos was expelled from school that year, which resulted in him not graduating from Schuyler. As for the reason for the expulsion, Cheetos didn't say anything, and Solim didn't bother to ask.

"Elrond is in his kennel, go yourself, I won't go," said Kiddo, and disappeared through the wall.

Elrond is Solim's grandfather. Among all Solim's relatives, only his grandfather and his sister Sirna are sincerely good to Solim. But Solim's grandfather, Elrond...has an embarrassing position in the family. Elrond's two brothers: Lesotho and Breed, both of them are great wizards—great wizards like Dumbledore and Voldemort. Lesotho is the leader of the Dangerous Placement Committee directly under the Presbyterian Church, while Brede is the head of the Logistics Department of the Dangerous Placement Committee. Many elders in Solim work under these two men.

Look at Elrond again: he is not a great wizard, although he is much stronger than ordinary wizards, but in the eyes of a family like Selwyn, so much time and resources have been wasted, and he is not considered a great wizard at this age. Wizard, this talent is simply an embarrassment to Selwyn.

Elrond's father and grandfather sometimes returned to Selwyn Castle, Solim's great-grandfather and great-grandfather. As for why these two people can live for so long, is there any need to ask? And these two old antiques are dark wizards in various senses. Although he can't do anything with his family, he will still sneer when he sees the offspring of waste materials. In this way, other younger generations of the family also disrespected Elrond. Although they would not do anything outrageous in person, they chewed their tongues behind their backs.

Think about Solim's Squib sister again. They have three grandparents, the old one is a waste material, and the two young ones: one is an illegitimate child and the other is a Squib. It is not bad that such three people can live like this in a family like Selwyn.

Solim's feeling for the other Selwyns was just—no feeling. He only cared about his grandfather and younger sister. As for the other clansmen, they were no different from strangers.

Elrond is not good at potions, and he is not good at fighting. Alchemy is so-so. Of course, this so-so can be called a master in the outside world. Elrond's real forte is to solve curses. There is only one spellbreaker mentioned in the original book, and that is Bill Weasley, the eldest brother of the Weasley family.

In the circle of the Selwyn family, the status of the curse-breaker is very low. Although every wizard inevitably has to deal with the curse-breaker, the curse-breaker is looked down upon by these wizards. In Solim's view, this is like the ancient Chinese attitude towards doctors: indispensable, but low status.

The role of spell breakers is to crack spells. Their understanding and research on magic lines, spell theory, spells and compound spells far exceeds that of ordinary wizards. They are good at breaking spells, inventing and improving spells. It can be said that the spells used by wizards today are all thanks to the spell breakers. It was Elrond who taught Solim the "Fierce Flame" spell that Solim used against the troll.

Solim called a house elf to lead the way. It's not that he doesn't know the way, but that there are some magic organs on the road in the basement that need to be temporarily closed. Solim can't do these tasks now, so the elf can only do it for him.

"Okay, you can go back, Zim." Solim put down the box in his hand and was about to knock on the door. "By the way, call Sirna over for me, and don't let others find out."

As soon as the elf disappeared, the door opened in front of Solim.

"Come in, I count the time and you should be here almost."

Standing inside the door was an old man in fairly good spirits, with the same black hair as Solim, but the hairstyle was of the same size—not as long as Solim's hair.

As for Solim's hair... For him, he never had the opportunity to grow long hair in his previous life, whether it was at school or at work, but now Solim's hair is just touching his shoulders. Long hair was a novel experience for Solim.

"Come in quickly, and tell me about your experience at Hogwarts."
