The Magician Kunon sees everything - Chapter 74

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

 

“It’s been a long time. I’ve heard a lot about you.”

 

Kunon was visited by Serph Cricket, a teacher he had met when he was taking the entrance exam.

 

He seemed to be doing paperwork, sitting at his desk with a pen in his hand.

I don’t know what teachers at magic schools usually do, but I’m sure they don’t have much free time.

 

“It’s been a while, Mr. Serph,” he said. “I know this is out of the blue, but what’s the secret to keeping a room clean?”

 

Kunon was envious of Serph’s neat and tidy laboratory.

 

Was it because of his meticulous nature?

Was that why he served as an examiner?

 

He had actually seen Bale’s lab, and Genevise’s lab was similar.

 

There are many magicians, including Kunon, who cannot clean up the mess.

In contrast, there is this room.

 

Not a single document is on the floor, not a scrap of paper is lying around.

There is no strange smell of unknown origin.

If anything, it even smells faintly pleasant.

 

It is indeed an enviable laboratory.

 

“It’s really urgent. It’s a …… personality problem, isn’t it?”

If I said that, the conversation would be over.

 

“What, you came here to ask me something like that? Oh, is it a statistical sample for some kind of experiment?”

 

“No, I’m just curious. My lab gets messy easily.”

 

“You’d better clean it up. Even a magician’s room is full of catalysts, magic band materials, and magic power. You never know what might happen.

In a corner of the room, an unseen life may be born or spread.”

 

“That’s an interesting story.”

 

“Don’t do it. I heard that there was a student who ruined a building with it in the past.

They accidentally summoned a sea monster or something…… It was unidentifiable slimy and stinky, and it was very hard to deal with it and clean up afterwards.

Don’t repeat the sad past. At least do it when I’m not around.”

 

That story is interesting, too.

 

No, let’s get down to business.

I’m afraid I’m going to spend too much time without getting to the point.

 

“I need some credits for my practical skills. Can you take a look at them?”

 

The conversation had gone off the rails after a long time, but Kunon finally got to the point.

 

“Oh, good. What are you going to do?”

 

Kunon said, “It’s too small here, so can we do it outside? I’m going to fly.”

 

“Huh? With water?”

 

“Yes.”

 

“…Okay. Let’s go now.”

 

Serph agreed with a quick reply, threw away his paperwork, and stood up.

 

Serph is also a magician.

If he was told that he would be able to see a rare magic trick, he couldn’t stand still.

Flying was the exclusive domain of the wind attribute.

If Kunon could do it with something other than wind, it would be quite an accomplishment.

 

“Could it be that the ‘flying’ he had Leah do was for this purpose?”

 

Kunon answered, “Of course.”

 

His classmate Leah Hose was a little confused, but Kunon was not paying him for nothing.

 

It wasn’t exactly personal support for his unfamiliarity with life at a magic school.

I’m not saying that aspect wasn’t there, but that’s not all.

 

“I just asked Leah to do what I was planning to do myself eventually,” he said.

“He will learn to ‘fly,’ and I will have enough experimental data for a little money. In addition, it will be a credit for him.

I think it was a good move on my part.”

 

Sure, if you just take the story, it’s a lean idea.

 

“Then there’s the bacon making you had Hank do?”

 

“That was just my taste,” he said.

 

“Oh, yeah.”

 

“What? Does that count?”

 

“That’s a little tricky. … Did he make a good one?”

 

“Yes, Hank’s bacon is delicious. I’m thinking of supporting Hank and encouraging him to start up a processed meat business. I think that bacon could compete on a global scale.”

 

“Is that a good use of the fire attribute?”

 

“That’s part of it.”

 

It was only after coming to this school that Kunon heard that the fire and wind attributes, which are not suited for production, would have trouble finding employment.

 

What can fire and wind do in human society?

 

When he thought it through calmly, they were not that necessary in everyday life.

I am sure many of us came to the same conclusion.

 

More than half of them became adventurers and turned their magic, which is difficult to use, into exterminating demons. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”

 

Fire is good for fighting, literally meaning firepower.

 

Wind, too, depends on how it is used.

Literally, a tailwind or a headwind can be useful in all aspects of life.

 

But do we need them in our daily lives?

 

– One of the ideas that came to Kunon’s mind when he thought about this was meat processing. It was also his own personal hobby.

 

He said, “Only a fire magician could make such a fine bacon. Isn’t that a good idea?”

 

I support it. I don’t know if it will be popular as a job or not, but many magicians are very proud.

But personally, I think that the one-star who has low aptitude for magic and the fire attribute who wants to avoid fighting will be a good recipient. I would support that.”

 

Some of the one-stars with low aptitude can only use magic to the extent that it is a little useful in everyday life.

Frankly speaking, some of them are not much different from ordinary people.

 

Serph thinks it would be a good place for such smoldering magicians who have not found a way to be useful to find employment.

 

-But that’s up to the individual.

 

Hank’s bacon will be available anywhere in the world.

For Kunon, it’s a dream come true.

 

Other fire magicians are a secondary concern.

If you want to work, you work; if you don’t, you don’t work.

 

Fortunately, Hank is developing a strong interest in bacon making.

I would like to see him get further into the bacon swamp and start a bacon trading company.

I want him to become the chairman of the world’s largest bacon company.

 

This is a story that I want to fill carefully, sometimes sadly, and sometimes boldly.

I want to take my time with Hank so that he doesn’t become frightened of me.

 

“You’ve got something wicked on your mind, don’t you?”

 

“Yes? No? Who knows?

 

Kunon is the type of person who shows his face more than you might think, but he doesn’t realize it.

Well.

 

They came out to the front, with a little more conversation along the way.

 

The wind was calm and the weather was fine.

It was a perfect day for flying.

 

“Can you fly, Mr. Serph?”

 

“Well, I have the wind attribute,” he said.

 

The teachers at the Dilashick School of Magic are all excellent magicians who have graduated from special classes.

 

“I’ll tell you first, your idea of flying with water is quite a good one.”

 

“By the way, is there a precedent for this?”

 

“There is. I’ve only heard about it, but I’ve never seen it.”

 

“Oh, so there is?”

 

Otherwise, it would not be interesting, Kunon thinks.

 

I am just starting out.

The teachers and predecessors here are much further ahead.

 

That’s how far ahead of their time they are, and that’s how much more knowledge and skill there is in the art of magic that Kunon doesn’t know.

 

I’m getting excited.

 

“I’ll go now, okay?”

 

“Aah.”

 

Kunon created a “super soft water ball” and lay there back to back.

 

No, I guess you could say that his upper body is up in its own way, so he is flopping down on a deep couch.

 

He looked very proud.

 

“I was a little confused,” he said.

 

The “water ball” floats with Kunon, who is flustered.

 

“The wind attribute can fly, but the water attribute can only float and drift, at least for me at this stage.”

 

“Hm… what’s the solution?”

 

Giggle!

 

Serph’s eyes widened.

The “water ball” with Kunon on board flew at a tremendous speed.

 

It flew low in the sky, rose rapidly, soared high into the sky, made a sharp turn, fell, and rose again.

 

It flew freely in the sky.

Flying like a big man.

 

“…… no way……..”

Serph was stunned.

He couldn’t believe the sight of Kunon flying around in a fluffy heap in front of him.

 

The speed is good.

It can go that fast.

 

But such a complicated trajectory, such a “flight” against gravity and inertia, is impossible, even for the wind attribute.

Nor could it make a sudden stop like that.

If they tried, they would lose control and crash.

 

To begin with, “flight” itself is a terribly difficult magic to control.

 

And if it fails, it is so dangerous that it can lead directly to death.

Therefore, it is not something that someone teaches; it is something that is developed independently by a surgeon who has acquired the proper skills.

 

And yet ……

 

“I’m back.”

Kunon, flustered and pompous, returned.

He stopped in front of Serph with a sudden stop, impossible for the wind attribute.

 

“How’s it going?”

 

“…… only curious, that’s all I’m really saying…….”

 

There is so much to say.

But now Serph didn’t have to choose, he just picked out one word.

 

“Can’t you fly without that pompous look on your face?”

 

The picture of a kid sitting on a sofa looking all pompous and flying around was, how should I say it, a little irritating.

 

If you’re going to fly, I thought, fly properly.

I was annoyed that he flew around in a more complicated way than the wind attribute, and yet he was slouched on the chair, giving the impression that he had done it on his own.

 

“Huh? What is it?”

Kunon didn’t quite understand.

 

He had never seen anyone who was so arrogant. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
