Chapter 346: Chapter 221: You Come Be the Principal

"Mr. Wayne, in view of your excellent teaching performance and outstanding personal abilities, you are hereby appointed as the Director of the Dragon Heart Academy Principal’s Office!"

Seeing the appointment letter in front of him, Wayne calmly accepted it, neither happy nor impatient, and the many teachers sharing the room with him exhibited the same calm, even indifferent, response to this promotion appointment, as they were already accustomed to it.

"Wayne, promoted again, huh? How about hosting a banquet tonight to celebrate?"

"No problem."

Wayne agreed without even lifting his head, as this had already become a routine.

"Where is the most prestigious hall in Elisium City?"

"It must be the Dream Forest run by the fairies, with the top-notch indulgence; even with money, you might not be able to get in. But considering Director Wayne’s face, surely you can secure the most prestigious hall."

"I might have some money, but I can’t afford to squander it like this!"

Hearing his colleagues begin discussing where to hold the banquet, with no intention of saving him money and ready to bleed him dry, Wayne quickly responded.

His official salary now, though considered high income in Elisium City, would not last a day in those money-burning caverns, potentially making him a super big debtor.

"Wayne, you’re underestimating yourself. With your rate of promotion, in a few years, you might become the Principal. The Dream Forest is nothing to you!"

"How could I ever qualify as Principal?"

Facing his colleague’s jests, Wayne could only respond helplessly.

Although he quickly transitioned into a full-time role after joining, being promoted rapidly within just three years to hold multiple positions, appearing to be a rising star in the academy with a promising future, being Principal seemed improbable.

Because all three Dragon Academies were military academies directly under the Holy Dragon, graduates could smoothly enter the topmost and equally best treated regiment under the Holy Dragon.

Even the lowest-ranking legion soldiers among them had statuses and treatments equivalent to Barons among the Feudal Nobles, making them legitimate military nobles.

Because of this, all positions within the academy held consider power, even the position of Director of Education, a seemingly inconspicuous school role, was considered a top-tier person in Elisium City filled with high-ranking officials and nobles, whom ordinary nobles would only fawn over.

The Principal of Dragon Heart Academy held a status equivalent to the Deputy Commander of a regiment, second only to the Regiment Leader, and also directly reported to the Holy Dragon.

Reaching this level meant being second only to the Holy Dragon and above everyone else.

Wayne never imagined it; although his rate of promotion was abnormally rapid, with a minor boost every three months and a substantial promotion every six months, he did not think the Holy Dragon would entrust him with such a core position.

Even the numerous teachers within the academy who saw Wayne as having promising prospects and worth befriending did not think he could become Principal, only seeing hope for the future, while for now, they were just jesting.

Unfortunately, when certain things present themselves to the public, the outcome is already set and won’t change due to anyone’s will, even if the process of development seems somewhat absurd or irregular, the rules are set by them after all.

"The Principal of Holy Dragon Heart Academy, due to misappropriation of academy funds and embezzlement of academy assets, is to be suspended from all duties pending investigation. The Director of the Principal’s Office will temporarily take over the Principal duties."

In less than a month’s time, an investigation order and an appointment that everyone found absurd for a week came down.

One Dragon Fairy was actually taken away for investigation. Although not the first Dragon Fairy to be investigated, it was indeed the first on the Holy Dragon’s land, setting a precedent.

Of course, more attention-grabbing was that the successor after this Fairy’s downfall wasn’t another Dragon Fairy but a human with some background issues.

Although the appointment letter only mentioned a temporary replacement, everyone knew what temporary meant; as long as he performed well, becoming permanent was just a matter of time.

This was an unexpected appointment for everyone, representing that the Dragon Academy was no longer fully held by the fairies, also suggesting that the Holy Dragon could accept and embrace more Races.

An investigation and an appointment, involving crucial positions, allowed different people to interpret the information they needed.

Most importantly, it pushed Wayne, who just wanted a peaceful life, into the spotlight again. Upon the appointment letter’s release, countless people began investigating Wayne’s identity, not believing that an ordinary human could assume such a heavy responsibility.

However, Wayne’s past, the more one investigated, the more shocking it became. Apart from those trivial forces unable to investigate, capable forces, once they delved deeper, would quickly be warned, as if they touched some unutterable taboo.

This further illustrated Wayne’s extraordinary background. Of course, the truly influential powers didn’t need to investigate; one look at the name told them who this young man entrusted with significant responsibility by the Holy Dragon was.

Some secrets, regarded as taboos, were open secrets to the real top-tier powers.
