The Magician Kunon sees everything - Chapter 70

“Thanks for the food.”

“…… yeah. Sure.”

As he came out of the restaurant, Kunon felt a little regret.

Lunch alone cost 220,000 Nekka.

-The business meeting was successfully concluded at the Adventurers’ Guild, and he, the saint, and the two maidens had just finished lunch.

We went to a high-class restaurant.

The food was not bad, and the price was “a little expensive,” but ……

The wine was effective.

The wine was expensive.

I don’t know what vintage it is, but it costs 200,000 Nekka.

I can’t believe she would order such a thing.

I did say, “You can order anything you want,” but there must be a limit.

-It was a good lesson for me that I should not say “I’ll buy you a drink” so easily.

A gentleman is not upset when he makes a mistake, but learns gracefully not to repeat it.

Especially in front of a lady.

Kunon said to himself and gulped down his tears.

“Ah, right, Miss Reyes, I’d like to have a few words with you about the future.”

In order to change his mood, Kunon decided to cut off the lunch conversation.

“About the future? Oh, are you talking about going to ‘Parfait’ in the future, too? Kunon has asked me several times, hasn’t he?’

When the saint said so, the attendants were delighted.

They said they still want to go in after having drunk and eaten so much.

Those adults do not know discretion.

I was thinking that Her Highness Milica also had a sweet tooth, but Kunon continued.

“I’m going to be observing and monitoring the progress of that prototype.

My estimate is that it should last at least three months, but it may be shorter. We will also have to see how it degrades over time due to storage conditions and depending on that, we may come up with a number of ideas for improvement.

I think this is a good place to start, but there is a lot of work to be done.

It may take a year or two before it is properly completed.”

“Yes, that’s right…….”

The saint thought calmly.

The money problem has been solved, but the essential solution has not been solved yet.

The pills are still just a prototype.

She had secured income for the next three months, but there were no guarantees beyond that.

But still, it was a big time saver.

The finances were already on the edge.

“So, you know, I think I’ll let Miss Reyes handle it from here.”　

“What?”

“Of course, I’ll help you with the processing and so on, but I’m not a part of it.”

“Not a part of it. I see, I see.”

It has been more than a month since I discussed my financial problems with him.

I feel that he has taken good care of me. I also think he has taken care of me in terms of daily lunches.

It was Kunon who made the plan for the business with the spirit plants.

And he came to check on them every day, keeping records. It was also Kunon who prepared the seeds of the spirit plants.

It would be a bad idea to make him stay in the saint’s business any longer.

There is also the problem of getting credits.

We can’t keep doing the same research and the same thing forever.

It’s not like we’re parting ways for life.

As long as Kunon is involved in the business of the spiritual Shi Shirura, there will be many opportunities for them to see each other in the future.

If she feels stuck, she should be able to ask for advice.

We can’t just keep on asking for help.

Even if it is not possible now, the saint thought that one day she would like to be able to consult with Kunon when he is in trouble.

We need to do better for that.

“We have Professor Sureya, and I think we’ll be fine.”

“I think so too.  The professor and Miss Reyes seem to have a good relationship.”

We have the same light attribute, so we certainly have a lot of things to talk about.

“Well then, Miss Reyes. What I’m going to say from now on is nothing but my wishes.”

Kunon spoke after prefacing his words with this. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”

“I want you to succeed in cultivating the spiritual herb Shi Shirura using methods other than your warding. And if possible, I would like you to lower the price of the medicine.”

“…… the price?”

“You may be strapped for money right now, but there are other ways to make money, and to a certain extent, expanding the scale of cultivation of Shi Shirura is not out of the question, right?

It’s just like Ms. Jirni said.

If the wounded medicine doesn’t get to the people who need it, it’s useless.

But even if we have perfected a useful medicine, if it’s too expensive to buy, then it’s still the same as it is now.

Now that we have decided to deal with the Adventurers’ Guild, I think we need to be flexible to meet their demands.”

Hearing Kunon’s words, the words “thin profit distribution” go through the saint’s mind.

She shakes her head and says, “To help the injured, you make a lot of products and offer them at a low price, right? So that as many people as possible can get it.”

Money has been all I’ve been thinking about these days.

But I remembered for the first time in a long time that the teachings of the Holy Land, the role of the saints, is absolutely not to make easy money.

For the first time in a really long time.

Hunger makes us forget God’s teachings.

I almost fell under the spell of money-making.

“I’m sure it’s not easy. Professor Sureya has been studying it for years, but she hasn’t had any success yet.

As for the cultivation of Shi Shirura, I’m sure your help will be of the utmost help.”

Cultivation of spirit plants is an interesting research topic for Kunon himself.

However, since he does not possess the light attribute, he has no way to get his hands on it.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is not qualified to do research.

That is a theme that should be a privilege of the light attribute.

More to the point, it is now a monopoly that only the saint can cultivate.

I personally hope that she will not maintain the status quo of monopoly, but aim for further development – and I personally hope that she will do so.

“……”

And unknown to Kunon, the maid of honor, Jirni, was becoming more and more favorable to him.

Kunon’s advice was exactly what Jirni was looking for.

– Unfortunately, Kunon’s liking for her is a little low because she asked for a vintage wine.

The deal and the expensive lunch were over and I was back at school again.

“Welcome back. How did it go?”

I tell Sureya, the teacher, who is waiting for me in the saint’s classroom, the result of the deal.

She said, “Good for you.”

Students in the special class have to earn their own living.

Knowing that they were screaming about their financial problems, Sureya was pleased that the saint’s troubles were over.

“I think that’s about the end of the collaboration between me and Mistress Reyes.”　

In addition, I will tell her that from here on, Kunon will be leaving the study of spirit plant cultivation.

“It’s hard to say goodbye to you, professor ……”

“Yes, it is. Kunon, you have different attributes, so it can’t be helped.”

“I wonder if I can stand the thought that tomorrow I might not see Professor Sureya again. I’m not sure I can.”

“Phew. Don’t tease a married woman.”

Well, whatever.

The cultivation of the sacred herb Shi Shirura is now finished.

The results of the research and the growth record will be submitted to the teacher Sureya.

The teachers will then examine the results and decide whether or not to give credit for the work.

– The success of the cultivation of the spirit plant is such a great achievement that it deserves to go down in history. It is not likely that they will not give you credit.

“……Well.”

Leaving the saint and teacher Sureya, Kunon went out into the hallway.

– One job done.

Hank’s bacon-making was done, and Lea’s “flight” had paid off.

The saint’s financial problems were manageable.

She must have learned how to make basic money, so I’m sure she won’t have much to do on her own from here on.

– So – finally, Kunon’s body was free again.

I have yet to start my own activities, such as getting the “sleep” business off the ground or getting the library books out of my mind.

It’s time to start something.

Or rather, I should start my next research project in order to earn credits.

“For now, I think I’ll go see Professor Bale.”

The first thing that came to mind was Bale Kirkton, the representative of the “Faction of Competence”.

Since I had something I wanted to discuss with him, I decided to go see him.

It was a pity that the person he was going to see was not a woman, but anyway, Kunon’s steps were light as he walked. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
