The Magician Kunon sees everything - Chapter 85
Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
“It’s been a long time, Master Kunon.”
Upon hearing the voice, Kunon took a step back.
It was an unconscious step.
“Hi, Jirni. Even on a cloudy day, your beauty shines. It’s as if you were some kind of jewel of many carats.”
Still, the words came out.
As usual.
“Well, thanks. The sky is blue, not a cloud in the sky.”
“Oh, really? I think it’s my mind that’s clouded…”
“…?”
Kunon remembered.
That’s it.
If the saint was going out of the school, it meant that her escort would also come with her.
Even Kunon, who is not afraid to eat out of his own pocket, cannot forget the 200,000 Nekka lunch he had to pay for the other day.
The person who had ordered the 200,000 nekkas of wine was Jirni, the lady’s maid and escort.
The saint, who had something to do at the Adventurers’ Guild today, was planning to leave before noon.
She had asked her escort to come and pick her up.
The other maid of honor and escort, Philea, is said to be away from home today.
After meeting their escort safely near the school gate, the three of them headed for the Adventurers’ Guild.
“After we finish our business at the guild, let’s go somewhere else, shall we?”
“Yes.”
“Where shall we go?”
“Anywhere you want. I won’t hesitate to go anywhere you want, even to the women’s lingerie department.”
On the way to the guild, the saint and Kunon have a casual chat.
Jirni is following right behind them in line.
“I remember we had an appointment. Let’s go have a parfait today.”
“Why not.”
“But at this time of the day, lunch comes first, doesn’t it?”
Lunch.
A word I didn’t want to hear.
It’s a word that makes me shy away from it, but…
“Of course, we’ll go to lunch, too.”
But Kunon stepped forward.
Even if my heart is broken and I claim pain…
Even if I was complaining loudly to refuse.
Even if he had to recall Linko’s big eyes, recalling memories of the past in his mind.
I wanted to be a gentleman, if not inwardly, at least in attitude.
“Where do you want to go? I definitely want to escort you two beautiful women.”
His voice trembled and his words choked.
But Kunon tried his best.
He knew that if he backed down here, he would never be able to say he was a gentleman again.
Men are sad creatures who want to look good in front of women.
“Really? I’m so happy for you, Jirni. Kunon will take you to a nice restaurant again.”
“Thank you, Mr. Kunon.”
“Ha-ha-ha-ha. What’s the big deal? I’m still earning a lot of money. Don’t worry. I’m fine. There’s nothing to be afraid of.”
That’s a lie.
The fact that Linco was angry at me was not something I could easily forget.
She was so angry that he didn’t even want to remember it.
Don’t ask for wine, ever.
I couldn’t help but wish for that as I laughed in the air.
– By the way.
“So?”
I want to change my feelings for a moment.
Kunon broke off the lunch topic.
He was so driven by his feelings that he was afraid he would stop and run away. Two hundred and twenty thousand. Linco. I’m scared.
“Is there something Miss Reyes wants me to do?”
“Do you understand?”
“Because I’m a gentleman.”
– I don’t understand the logic, but the saint thought that’s what a gentleman would do.
“I received a request from the guild this morning. They asked me to bring a skilled water magician.
I was going to ignore it if I didn’t see Kunon. I think they need a little help with something. Could you help them?”
“Oh, it’s guild-related?”
“Yes, it is. And from what I’ve just heard, it seems that Kunon is not unrelated to the guild.”
“Isn’t that irrelevant? Me?”
“Yes. Of course, there will be rewards as well.”
Even if he was told that, Kunon had no idea what she was talking about.
Other than the medicine box and the Shi Shirura, Kunon had nothing to do with the Adventurers’ Guild.
If that were the case, he would have summoned Kunon in person.
Well, he was approached because he needed a water magician.
He probably didn’t invite Kunon because he needed a water magician.
“Actually…”
“Oh, that’s all right. It would be more interesting to hear about it after we go there. I’d rather talk about a nice lunch than work right now.”
She interrupts the explanation and brings up the subject of lunch.
I was able to calm down a little thanks to the pause.
-I’m not going to a fancy restaurant, but I’m going to lead them to a more casual place.
We can do that now.
Nothing is set in stone yet, but now!
“It’s been a long time, Mr. Kunon.”
Once at the Adventurers’ Guild, we parted company with the saints.
The saints had a meeting to discuss a prearranged job.
And Kunon, as he had heard, was assigned to another job.
Asando Smithy, the head of the administration department, whom we knew well, led us into a warehouse-like building next to the guild.
It was a deserted place, empty, with very few things to see.
More importantly, it smells like a lot of things.
“This is where we keep our catch and goods for sale for the time being. We don’t go as far as disassembling them, but the smell of blood still permeates the place.”
“I see……hm?”
Among the various smells, a familiar, slightly fishy aroma caught my nose.
“Fish?”
It was just like what I had smelled the other day when I was moving around the ocean.
“Yes. The other day, a large quantity of high-quality fish was brought into Dillashick. We had been keeping them in our guild until we could find a buyer for them.”
A large catch of fish.
I see. So that’s what the saintly woman meant when she said that he was “not unrelated.”
“So, the buyer wanted to buy two fish. The buyer asked me to take two fish out of the city. Oh, over there.”
Asando pointed to two huge fish on a cart.
The time of year and the size of those fish were surely the ones that Luluomet, the representative of the “rational faction,” had killed.
This means that the fish will be traveling from now on.
I don’t know the schedule, but I can see the story somehow. I don’t see the fish, though.
“You’re going to freeze it?”
“Huh? Oh, yes, yes! It’s still half frozen, but I wanted to make sure it was frozen properly once more before transporting it out.”
It has been several days since the search for the wreck.
It is now winter time.
If the fish were properly frozen and stored, they would last a little longer.
And now we are going to take it out of town.
Then surely it would be better to freeze it again before we leave.
“But …… excuse me, are you okay?”
“Huh?”
“No, I’ve heard that ice magic is difficult,…. so there aren’t many adventurers with the water attribute that I can ask.”
“Really……Is that so? What about Sandra?”
Sandra is a water magician of great output.
She is a well-known figure in the adventurer community, and her abilities should be recognized.
“She can’t freeze just the fish. She only can freeze the whole fish… and half of the warehouse….”
– Sandra is not very good at manipulating the finer details of magic.
The actuality that the actual ice magic itself is difficult to operate is also the reason why.
To be more precise, it is difficult to freeze only a “specific part or a specific place”.
Many people can do it within a certain general range, but the more you narrow down the target, the more difficult it becomes.
“It’s a little difficult, isn’t it?”
With a sense of nostalgia, Kunon approached the large, slightly thawed fish on the cart.
Partial, limited freezing.
It is a path that Kunon has also gone through with difficulty.
“Can I freeze it then?”
“Yes, please.”
Piki-Piki-Piki.
The surface of the fish is frosted, emitting a sound and hardening.
“Finished.”
It happened so fast.
White smoke erupted from the entirety of the giant fish.
“…… ice, huh?”
Ice can be used in the transformation of the “water ball a-ori.”
But I don’t know of any magic that can create ice itself.
“……I think I’ll take this one.”
The form of water that is not water.
It’s not worth pursuing.
Now the third magic of Kunon was decided. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
