Chapter 558

In the Tuscarola, Pennsylvania, west of Harrisburg, lies a huge manor house invisible to Muggles, the home of the Greif family.

Rich and powerful wizard families will occupy the best territory, while inferior family estates will not choose to be in such uninhabited places, but will choose to be close to the city or the countryside.

However, instead of coming to the Greif family's estate, Solim and the others settled in one of the Selwyns' villas in New York State, where they would go tomorrow at noon, and then there would be a three-day feast.

Solim had never attended any so-called banquets, and his status did not allow him to appear in formal settings. The long-term habits of life also made Solim not adapt to that kind of environment: people dressed like dogs, people wearing masks, hypocritically flattering each other, but the knife in the back was unknowingly stabbed out...... Even thinking about such an occasion would make Solim uncomfortable, not to mention that he would have to endure such torture for three days.

In the villa, Solim was looking at the information that Elrond had given him, the composition of the Greif family, and the relationship between the Greif family and other families, as well as the major events that had taken place in recent years...... Then there's the investigative report of his fiancée, Elena, including her experiences as a child, her grades at Ephamoni, and her relationships.

Among them, Solim needs to be familiar with the factional relationships within the Greif family and the interest groups that are entangled with them, because these people are considered the "enemies" of the Selwyn family. Solim needs to figure out who is the enemy, who is a potential enemy, and who is an enemy who can be fought for...... Yes, there are no friends, only enemies, and even the part of Greif who was instrumental in bringing about Solim and Elena's marriage is a potential enemy.

No one wants to give away half of the shares in the Rieham cattle herdium, even if Solim will soon become the son-in-law of the Greif family. They need Selwyn to help them fend off the sharks that smell blood, and if they can guarantee their wealth and safety, they will not hesitate to sell Solim for their purposes.

Sylna returned from her visit to the villa to find Solim with his head buried in a pile of parchment.

"What are you doing here?" Picking up a stack of bound parchment, Silna read, "Elena." Devonsy. Greif, at Ilphamoni School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Longhorn Water Serpent Academy - well, this looks like your fiancée's profile, did your grandfather give it to you?"

"Yes, but this information is obviously not available to Grandpa. Solim shook the thick parchment in his hand, "These things are all collected by the family, and I have to say that these things are not visible to ordinary people." "

"For example—" Sylna put down the parchment in her hand.

"For example, complex networks. Solim rubbed his temples, "The families that are related to Greif by marriage - I mean the more powerful ones that have the ability to meddle in this matter, there are more than a dozen in total, and the ones that need to be paid attention to are O'Brien, McDauff, Fischer, Vonnatar, ......"

Solim froze, he blinked, picked up the parchment and looked at it helplessly, and then said like an endorsement, "And Grimstingch, Joansi, Wilkinson, and O'Brien—"

"O'Brien, you've just memorized. Sylna rolled her eyes, "What are you doing right now?"

"I can't help it, I need to know who's hostile to me, even if they're smiling on the surface. Solim sighed, looked at the parchment in his hand, and threw it on the table.

"Then you are so pathetic. Sylna looked at her brother sympathetically, "Everyone wants to kill you." "

"Whoever nominally owns half of the world's only Ream cattle herding site will want to kill him, but I'm the first one. Solim yawned, "If I'm killed, the family will find someone else to take my place, whether it's a descendant or a young man of the right age who is not allowed to have the surname Selwyn, as long as I can get that venue, the family won't care who marries that Miss Grave." "

Solim lay down on the couch, he was going to rest for a while, and it would be nice to talk to Sylna like that.

"What about the Greifs?"

"What can they do? What do they want now? What they want now is an umbrella to prevent more wealth from being divided. If we can keep their current position and most of their wealth, they won't care who Miss Greif's husband is. To put it mildly, we just got a goblin and told everyone that this goblin was also a member of the Selwyn family, and they Greif had to hold their noses and admit it. "

"Then she's so pathetic. Sylna was a little glad at this time, although there was no clear news yet, but she understood that her marriage to the Orvis family was basically a sure thing. With my grandfather and brother here, I will never be bullied in the future.

"How's the school at Ilphamoni?" Sylna changed the subject, "As far as I know, this school seems to have something to do with Hogwarts." "

"It does matter. Solim lay on his legs, his calves still dangling.

Aesop, the founder of Ilvermorny. Searle. This woman is not ordinary, and equally unusual is her mother: Leona. Searle. Of course, this is Leona's last name after she got married, and before she got married, Leona had the surname Gaunt. Unfortunately, her husband was a Muggle, and for the Gaunt family, it was not allowed to talk to Muggles, let alone marry Muggles. One can imagine what kind of bad luck her actions will bring to her and her family.

Graeme was Aesop's aunt, and after killing the Thors, she took the young Aesop away and tried to correct the misconceptions that Aesop's mother had instilled in her, but Aesop escaped to the Americas with her aunt's wand as an adult, and eventually established the Ilphamonian School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Isolt never attended Hogwarts, but her mother and aunt both completed their studies at Hogwarts. She longs for life at Hogwarts, so she establishes four Hogwarts houses in Ephamuniri, which she founded: the Horned Serpent, the Thunderbird, the Cat and the Panther, and the Goblin.

Aesop's relationship with Hogwarts doesn't end there, as the wand she stole from her aunt once belonged to Salazar. Slytherin's, for now, the legendary wand has been transformed into a heavily protected and revered serpent in the Ilphmani School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

"Serpentine?" Sylna asked with interest, "Is it the same as the one in Orvis Manor?"

"Probably. Solim said, "I haven't seen it again." "
