Aurora nodded.
She was not surprised by the Headmaster’s answer.
As the person who led the academy, he should have his own ans to see through the situation in the academy.
After all, he couldn’t possibly let other people cause trouble in his territory.
"You have such an interesting way to manage your academy, Headmaster." Aurora smiled faintly and looked at the headmaster in front of her.
The Headmaster only shrugged and didn’t say anything.
There were many forces intertwined with various interest. If the Headmaster were to be stubborn and didn’t make a good use of this matter, then he would be the stupid one. Because he understood very well that if he were to fight against the current, there would be more than enough ways to make him die without intact corpses.
The Headmaster still wanted to live a few more years, so he naturally would not do anything that would hurt himself.
The managent of the academy itself required a lot of matters.
From funding, security, and many others.
Even if the Headmaster kicked those people out, he knew that they would only send more people to watch over him.
Because this academy had touched the interest of many people.
"There are a lot of powerful and important people in the academy. If I wish to survive, I need to be able to balance these forces," the Headmaster replied.
In a way, it might be similar to the court. Because it involved a lot of people who were interested, they would pay more attention to the academy.
They would not let the academy off easily if it were to do anything that harm their interest.
Monitoring was the most basic things.
The Headmaster didn’t think that he had done anything wrong and his way of managing the academy itself was pretty transparent. In this way, these people shouldn’t make any trouble to him.
But they did make so moves against so students in the academy.
For this matter, the Headmaster was also helpless.
He couldn’t possibly be involved in every dispute between students and monitoring all of them was also a difficult task.
So, the Headmaster simply turned a blind eye of what has been happening.
This was the best move for him.
"I see." Aurora nodded, not giving any comnt to the Headmaster.
The Headmaster looked at Aurora in front of him and arched his eyebrows. "I don’t think you’re here just to complain about my managent system, Miss Aurora?"
If she was here only to disturb him and made complain about this matter, the Headmaster felt that Aurora simply had too much free ti in her hands.
"No." Aurora shook her head. "I’m here to ask so questions to the Headmaster."
"Yes?"
"Would you like to remain in this status quo or to change it?" Aurora asked slowly.
The Headmaster froze.
The status quo that Aurora ntioned should be their current situation in which he had to follow and abide the rules set by the nobles and so on. There was simply no chance for him to do anything else.
And so far, this was what the Headmaster had done.
He didn’t want to challenge the nobles and so on because it would be troubleso. There was also no chance for him to make any move because if he were to do sothing, there would be more people who would stop him from achieving his goal.
Over the years, the Headmaster had gotten used to it.
Even if he had so grievances and annoyance, he never voiced it out.
The Headmaster looked at Aurora. "Are you speaking as part of the nobility or as soone separated from them?"
Aurora is Duke White’s daughter and technically also part of the nobility.
The situation in the academy was very suitable for those who were part of the nobility and Aurora should be no exception.
But her words seed to tell the Headmaster that she was willing to change her position.
"What do you think, Headmaster?" Aurora replied, not answering clearly.
She didn’t dare to speak about this matter loudly because Aurora knew that many people were watching her every move.
But at the sa ti, Aurora didn’t want to keep this matter all the ti.
There were so people whom she could talk to about this.
The Headmaster sighed. "There would be no free lunch and this old bone couldn’t really stand being tossed around."
Even if there was a chance in front of him to change the situation and everything, but the Headmaster knew very well that he couldn’t take it. He was no longer young and at this mont, what he wanted the most was to be able to rest and manage the academy well.
For other things...
He couldn’t touch and didn’t dare to touch either.
There were so many tis that he wanted to try when he was younger.
But there has never been any chance.
Now, the chance ca when he was already older...
And the Headmaster couldn’t take it.
HIs body wouldn’t be able to withstand or to follow through it until the very end.
"I see." Aurora was not disappointed by the Headmaster’s answer.
She could see that he was soone who has long got used to this situation. Even if he wanted to fight back, it was hard to do so with his old age.
In this way, the Headmaster could only keep this status quo.
The Headmaster smiled when he saw Aurora’s response. She was so calm and composed as if nothing could bother her in the slightest bit. But perhaps it was also because of this that she could reach her current position.
"If you do need my help, I don’t mind lending so hands. However, the academy couldn’t be biased towards their students too much," the Headmaster said with helpless tone.
Aurora’s eyes flickered
She looked at the Headmaster’s expression and understood what he wanted to do.
He would basically take advantage of what she would do.
But...
It’s fine.
This kind of negotiation worked better than nothing.
