Harry Potter's Bastard

The banquet was drawing to a close, and some of the guests had already begun to leave. Solim and Elena were finally able to sit down and rest for a while after standing hard for a long time.

"It's finally coming to an end. "

Sylna was also slumped on the couch, and she and Flegg were not idle at all today. Before the banquet officially began, the two of them were led by Gilves, visiting relatives, friends, and families and individuals with interests one by one, and followed them around after Solim and Elena came out, and they were tired enough after half a day.

"I can't get married like this in the future. Sylna craned her neck and looked at Flegg next to her, "Just invite a few relatives and close friends, don't invite so many people." "

"I don't have to say that. Flegg was still able to sit in a relatively secure position, and did not collapse directly on the couch like Sylna.

"It's just talking, and I know it's not realistic. Sylna sat up with her elbows propped up on the soft sand.

Marriage is not a matter of two people, even for ordinary wizards, let alone pure-blood families like Selwin and Ovis.

A pure-blood wizard's wedding is more about providing a place where invited guests can mingle and strengthen their interests.

Today's protagonists appear to be the newcomers Solim and Elena, but in fact the guests are the protagonists. They were just getting together through Solim's marriage. The head of the Chamber of Commerce, an official of an official body, the head of a pure-blood family...... They get together in the name of the wedding, strengthen the bond with each other, deepen the exchange of interests between each other, and use this to hold together and grow their momentum, in order to find benefits in a broader direction.

At Sirna's wedding, it is estimated that more than half of the herbalists from all over Europe will be present, and all kinds of potions groups and institutions, both official and private, will also have to come and cheer. If they do break into the American market by then, then there will be a bunch of more magic guild officials and pure-blood family representatives.

Individuals are insignificant in the face of the interests of the family, and whether they want to or not, they have to obey the arrangement.

"You two are going around the island next, and we'll be waiting for you over there. "

When Sylna saw her grandfather walk in, she immediately straightened her back.

Solim and Elena were to ride in a carriage next—of course, this was just a colloquial name, and it certainly wouldn't be a horse pulling the cart, at least not entirely in terms of blood.

The carriage was an ordinary carriage that did not cast a Traceless Stretching Charm, and they would sit in it and parade around the island according to a pre-planned route.

This is an ancient ritual in Selwyn.

As we all know, the whole island of Neasto belongs to the Selwyn family – completely. The flowers and trees on the ground, the soil underground, the sky on the island, and even the seabirds that briefly fly over the island all belong to Selwyn. But that doesn't mean the Selwyns have owned the island since birth.

Land is non-renewable, and every inch of land on the continent of Europe has an owner – from ancient times to the present day.

Wizards seized vast amounts of land from various magical creatures in ancient times, and then the wizards continued to subdivide each other's spheres of influence. Coincidentally, Selwyn and three other pure-blood wizards fell in love with Neasto Island.

At that time, there were four wizarding families on the island of Neasto, and there was bound to be a land dispute. Whenever someone from the Selwyn family got married, they marched along what Selwyn considered to be the border, as a way to declare "sovereignty" to the other three wizarding families.

Although Selwyn now occupies the entire island of Neasto, this custom has been preserved.

Like Selwyn's ancestors, Solim and Elena had to follow a specific route and return to the home their family had set up for them on the island.

You don't have to pay for the wedding, the house is also built by the family, and you don't even have to keep an eye on the decoration...... If you put it on ordinary wizards, this is naturally a good thing. But for the women who marry into Selwyn, it will be a shackle that they will not be able to break through for the rest of their lives......

Solim and Elena sat on the same side in the carriage, waving to the guests outside the window.

"I've heard that I can't leave this island again, right?"

Leaving Selwyn Castle, surrounded by guests, Elena withdrew her hand from the window. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Who told that?" Solim glanced through the small window inside the carriage at the procession that followed, then waved his hand to close the small cover at the front of the carriage.

"I ...... The people in our family, and your sister. Elena clenched her hands, the pattern on the women's gloves she was wearing had become distorted.

"I've met your sister's mother," Elena bit her lower lip, "I've learned a little bit...... Her life experience...... It's not great. "

It's not great......

This is too subtle. None of the women who married to Selwyn could live comfortably. If the woman comes from a powerful family, she will live directly in Selwyn Castle, where a large living area has been set aside for such women, and the maximum satisfaction is achieved in terms of personal space and use—but this is only material..... []

Humans are also animals, but they are different from animals – they have spiritual needs, and Selwyn does not consider this at all.

They would spend the rest of their lives in the area that Selwyn had set aside for them, and they couldn't leave it unless there was a major banquet or event.

Yes, they even give birth there, and the children are not raised by the mother herself, but by the family, in order to cut off the mother's influence on the child, so that the mother does not control the child to achieve certain goals.

Destroying the relationship between husband and wife, and then taking the child away from the mother so that she can see her once in a few years, is torture for a woman. If a child in the family frequently visits his biological mother in Houbao and shows affection or dependence on his mother, the family will destroy the relationship between mother and child, tear their trust, and prevent the next generation from being too influenced by the mother.

Selwyn was anti-human when it came to his daughter-in-law. But this rule has never been shaken for thousands of years, even if there have been a few sporadic resistances, but that undoubtedly strengthened the family's approach - for a woman to rebel against the family, then I don't know what will be done to harm the interests of the family.

Under the guidance of this thought, Selwyn did not relax for a moment on the women of the foreign race. They don't give these women any information about the outside world, and they are also wary of them probing into the internal structure and defenses of 2.1 Castle, and they are strictly forbidden from communicating with the outside world.

For many families who marry their daughters to Selwyn, they are fully aware of this, but the pure-blood family has been able to reproduce to this day because the family's interests are above all else.

The pure-blood families who put the wishes of their children before the interests of the family have disappeared into history, and the families like Selwyn, who put the interests of the family above all else, have survived.

Solim understands this when it comes to family survival, but that doesn't mean he approves of this impersonal method of control.

However, Elena's worries were clearly unnecessary.

Greif was not a powerful pure-blood family in Selwyn's eyes, and Elena was not qualified to live in Selwyn's Inner Castle. As long as he's not inside the castle, Solim has a way to make Elena comfortable.
