Chapter 135

Solim was lying on the bed now, still the familiar bed, still in the dimly lit basement. After coming out of the conference hall, someone did ask Elrond and Solim if they would like to move to the upper floor of the castle, but Elrond and Solim both refused, for the two of them, it was more affectionate to the dim basement, basically no one would come here, they were happy to be quiet, besides, what is the difference between the upper floor and the basement of Selwyn Castle? It's not that there is no sunlight all year round, although the basement is not ventilated, but with the help of magic, it is not a problem.

With his hands behind his head and lying on his back on the bed, Solim didn't bother with killing an innocent person. Now that he has been killed, can he still be brought back to life if he thinks about this matter?

Moreover, Solim had no choice under the circumstances, and no one in Solim's situation at that time had a choice. Kill Adelaide or Wright, their father and grandfather will not let go of themselves easily, although the big guy Cadmus plays a certain role in it, but obviously they will not and dare not lose their temper at the big guy, so they can only be angry with themselves, which is very troublesome, it turns out that they just don't like each other, and it has not yet reached the point of hatred, but if Solim really kills one of these two boys, then the feud will be bigger.

This move obviously will not satisfy the big guys sitting on it at the time, none of the dark wizards are indecisive, and ruthlessness is synonymous with them. If Solim really did this, needless to say, even if Elrond's matter was ruined, the phoenix egg would probably not hatch, although it was unlikely that those bigwigs would kill themselves directly, but they would definitely do it if they tortured themselves to increase their memory. Because an innocent person, to sacrifice himself to such a point? Solim asked himself if he could do it, if someone could really do it to this extent, it would undoubtedly be regarded as the Virgin, for this kind of person, Solim would respect, but would never imitate, compared to those hypocrites who said that they were high-sounding, Solim thought that it was more suitable for him to be a real villain.

However, Solim is still very puzzled, why Cadmus has to arrange such a play for himself, what is the point of this? Want to see if he is ruthless? This also doesn't make sense, Solim won't believe that the Tumbledown Alley incident can hide from them, the two people who were corrupted by the corrosive agent and the idiocy of the Rich family are enough to show that Solim is not a ruthless person. Is it just to see how he behaves after killing? It's possible, being forced to end a life, and it's an innocent person's life, it will be a horrific experience for the vast majority of minors, they may want to take this opportunity to see if Solim has the potential to become a dark wizard? A qualified dark wizard must not reject killing, for dark wizards who are riddled with negative emotions, killing has become instinct. Cadmus may have just wanted to see if Solim had what it took to be a dark wizard. If this inference is true, then they are justified in arranging this trip.

But Solim thought more. He has not forgotten the purpose of this inhumane "rule" when it was invented. The purpose was to warn the person concerned to keep their distance from Muggles.

It is impossible for Sculleri to have Muggles, and even if there were, they would have appeared there as test subjects and teaching aids, and even less so in Selwyn Castle, where there were many Muggle-born students.

Solim's relationships are very simple and his social circle is small. There are only a few things that can be said to Solim in Hogwarts, and this thing is still easy to look up, at least for those big guys, it is not a secret who Solim usually interacts with. And there is only one Muggle who is closer to Solim, and that is Hermione.

It seems that since they came into the sight of those big guys, they have investigated themselves, and even the school of Hogwarts, which they don't look up to. Solim sighed inwardly. He himself was more inclined to this conclusion, and without warning, combined with the original purpose of the "rules", Solim was almost certain that they wanted to warn themselves to stay away from Muggles.

Solim doesn't have any extreme views about Muggles or half-bloods, but most pure-blood wizards have been discriminating against Muggles, and Solim is powerless to change this environment, and he has no intention of changing it.

However, these are also Solim's speculations, and they are not counted at the moment. Elrond didn't come back, and he was now communicating with some elders on it, mainly to inquire about the real purpose of the bigwigs summoning Solim this time.

Solim is now valued by the Cadmus Ancestors, and word has spread. The family will tilt Elrond in terms of resources, and it has been decided to help him become a great wizard. This made Elrond's status within the family rise all at once, and when Solim couldn't be found, the clan had to hold on to Elrond, and there were even some more remote clansmen who wanted to marry their daughters to Solim - intermarriage within pure-blood families was common, but Elrond certainly wouldn't agree. Finally asking what he wanted to know, Elrond struggled his way through the crowd back to the basement.

"I inquired clearly. Elrond closed the door and said to Solim, who was lying on the bed, "It does have something to do with your relationships at Hogwarts. That little girl's name is Granger, isn't she?"

"I guess that's the case. Solim sat up cross-legged, "Otherwise, they wouldn't have made such a sudden come." "

"Then you'll keep your distance from those Muggles at Hogwarts. Elrond said indifferently.

"This little girl in your mouth is still very important to Harry Potter, the so-called 'savior', in a sense. "

"So you approached her with some kind of purpose?"

“...... Sort of. Hermione could count as Potter's brain—at some point. "

"Then you know what you can't do...... Elrond warned Solim, and then added, "...... The basilisk thing is not exposed, and you can rest assured. Luckily, I informed the old man beforehand, and he told Sylna to hide the basilisk in the depths of the manor. Then Elrond dug it out and threw something to Solim: "I don't need this either, we'll go find the old guy in a few days, he'll use it, and I'll give it to you when the time comes." "

Solim glanced at the bottle in his hand, it was the "Wizard's Key", since the family decided to tilt towards Elrond in terms of resources, then he naturally wouldn't use this thing anymore.

"You're doing pretty well today, that kid from Keldo was about to come to you with his idiot sons, but I've got you back, so you don't want to see them, do you?" Elrond changed the subject.

"Apologize and let them go to Sylna. Solim tossed the bottle into his chest, which Elrond had brought here from Orvis Manor, and now it was at Solim's bedside.

"When are we leaving?" Solim asked, "I guess it's almost over there, I'm in the castle right now, and I can't get the letter from Draco." "

"Tomorrow. As soon as the materials and methods for hatching your phoenix egg are in hand, we will pick up your sister. Elrond then motioned for Solim to open the box.

"I don't understand. How could your kid's luck be so good!" Solim knew what his grandfather wanted to see, and directly handed the cracked phoenix egg to Elrond.

"You can catch anything good. Elrond looked at the phoenix egg in his hand carefully, he really had never seen a phoenix egg, and like Solim, he had never heard of a phoenix still having an "egg" state.

"What are they going to do with that knife?" Solim suddenly asked Elrond a question.

"To end a life, of course. Elrond had already taken out his wand and pointed at the phoenix egg, "Wizards, elves, or other magical creatures with great vitality, sometimes that knife works better than a spell. "

Elrond put the phoenix egg in the box and said to Solim, "Just ...... with a light stroke"

With a "bang", Elrond closed the box.

“...... Whatever it was, he was dead. "
