Wizard: I brought the wrong system.

Chapter 490 The Undercurrents Among Teachers
The reason Yaro discussed the recruitment with them was to bait them; he hoped they would send some people in.

These families, who possess extraordinary powers, do not value basic knowledge as much as ordinary nobles. In order to make their servants work better, they will freely impart their knowledge.

At twelve or thirteen years old, it's unlikely he'd be a suicide squad member.

Even so, those who have only been around ten years old for a short time don't have much experience, so it's easy to notice.

They wouldn't be core members either, because core members would definitely have already been arranged to join the wizarding academy by the time they reached around ten years old.

These people are practically ready to use right away, which is much better than spending time and effort training them from scratch.

Unfortunately, no matter what Yaro said, everyone except Ian just nodded with a serious expression.

They all seemed to be saying, "Ah, yes, yes, yes!" but none of them actually did anything.

Ian was slightly different; he firmly believed that Yaro must have had a deeper meaning in doing so.

However, he had only recently taken over the Boone family and didn't know much about the family's internal affairs, so he wasn't sure if the Ian family had suitable personnel.

Another major reason is Morton.

Because Morton recklessly used many sensitive enchanted artifacts before his death, his past misdeeds of harming others have also been exposed.

If he hadn't already died, and if the Fernando wizarding family hadn't been so oppressive, those aggrieved parties would probably have come knocking on their door long ago.

The fate of the Boone family now hinges entirely on the relationship between Ian and Yaro.

But since it was Yaro who killed Morton with his own hands, no one knows what Yaro's opinion of the Boone family is now.

Therefore, the Boone family cannot be too outspoken now, and even less can they discuss matters concerning the Boone family with Yarrow in public.

Yaro could vaguely guess the Boone family's mindset, but he deliberately kept his opinion to himself, intentionally keeping Ian hanging.

The sword of Damocles hangs heavy when something is uncertain.

Once an answer is given, regardless of whether the outcome is good or bad, there will be no more pressure in one's heart.

With that in mind, Yaro appointed Ian in front of everyone, saying, "In addition to teaching, you will also serve as the Dean of Academic Affairs."

"Dean of Academic Affairs? What does that do?"

Ian asked, puzzled.

This is a new compound word; there is no such position in wizarding academies.

"Coordinate, supervise, and evaluate the teaching quality of teachers, help and train teachers with lower teaching levels, and remove teachers with poor teaching attitudes."

In addition, I am also responsible for adjusting textbooks and arranging timetables..."

Yaro paused for a moment, then continued, "This position involves a lot of responsibility and tasks. Ian, are you willing to accept it?"

“Of course I’m willing!” Ian’s eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed, nodding repeatedly.

"Hmm..." Yaro nodded slightly, glancing around and noticing that the expressions of the people around him were rather unpleasant.

I told you not to do your jobs properly, all you ever do is go to banquets and dances!
Let me show you the 'catfish effect'!
Roll it up, roll it up as hard as you can!
Yaro smiled wryly, then turned back and continued to instruct: "I arranged this position for you because you will also be teaching on the front lines, and you should be able to teach more diligently than others."

You must not abuse your power for personal gain.

Teachers who train teaching skills should not be forced; it must be voluntary.

If you find any teachers with a poor attitude, subpar teaching skills, or who are unwilling to improve, please let me know first. I will investigate and then make arrangements.

The power to supervise can be granted, but the power to make decisions cannot be handed over arbitrarily. Unlike Anabe, Ian's interests are not aligned with Yaro's.

"Understood! Brother Yaro, you can rest assured that you've entrusted the matter to me!"

Ian patted his chest and made a promise, almost to the point of signing a pledge.

Whether it's a matter of personality cult or family safety, Ian cannot refuse this appointment.

"Words alone are not enough; I want to see your actions..."

We can't let Ian get the illusion that he has a 'secure job'; we have to put him in the competition too!
Yaro groaned slightly, then looked around at the people and said:

“One month. I’ll have Ian work on it for a month first. I’ll see how well he does it. If he doesn’t do a good job, I’ll choose someone else from among you.”

You guys don't have any objections, right?

Elena Taylor offered sweetly, "Lord Yarrow, Ian Boone has never been involved in management before. Why don't you let me do it? I've been managing the family since I was a child, and I'm very confident in my management skills!"

Ian slammed his hand on the table, turned around and glared at him, saying, "This is Lord Yaro's trust in me, why do you need to interfere!"

Ian usually stays at home alone to conduct experiments, and this is the first time someone has criticized him in front of so many people. His lack of experience was immediately exposed.

A gentle-looking man next to him shook his head and said, "I don't think someone who gets angry and slams his fist on the table after just a few words can do the things you're talking about."

Immediately, someone else chimed in to support Elena Taylor, "Lord Yaro, Ms. Elena Taylor's organizational skills are truly outstanding. For example, last night's banquet was entirely under her control, and every aspect was arranged perfectly."

Luna Lanelli, who was standing nearby, immediately spoke up: "I agree that Ian should try it for a month first!"

A slightly plump woman nodded gently: "After all, the position of Dean of Academic Affairs was created by Lord Yaro. No one has ever done it before. Let Ian do it for a month first. Even if he is not good at it, we can still get a general understanding of what the position requires."

The tall, thin man sitting next to her immediately objected: "From Lord Yaro's description, we can tell that the Dean of Studies has very high requirements for communication skills. Since we're all starting from scratch, it would be better to let Ms. Elena Taylor, who has better interpersonal skills, do it."

"If we're talking about approachability, Luna Lanelli is more adorable than Elena Taylor, right? Then why not let Luna Lanelli try it out for a month first?"

"Cute is nothing compared to sexy!"

……

Yaro remained silent, watching them argue silently with a cold eye.

Watching from the sidelines for only a short time, Yaro vaguely categorized these people.

Elena Taylor, who wields the most power and asserts her rights with righteous indignation.

Luna Lanelli, whose power is roughly equal to, or even stronger than, Luna's, but who dares not fight for her interests.

The reason we use the term 'power' here is because these people are involved in undercurrents, and what they say on the surface may be a deliberate attempt to 'praise someone to their detriment'.

It feels like those six or seven people could easily create forty group chats!

Two opportunistic old lechers, or perhaps the hidden sixth brother.

And, the lonely Ian Boone.

"Boom boom boom!"

After a few taps on the table, the people around quickly quieted down.

"Alright, let's not argue over such a small matter. We should focus on the students and the teaching. Besides, Ian is only going to do it for a month first, so let him do it and we'll see how it goes."
