The Magician Kunon Sees Everything

Chapter 3: Deciding on What Needs to be Done

Not enough. Its all not enough.

It was a night about a week after Kunons ambition to gain visibility was born.

Now that Ive gotten used to magic and magic power, I think there are too many things I lack.

What? Youre not receiving enough love from me?

The maidservant is saying something, but I dont care.

I think you give enough love .

Shucks, I accidentally responded.

While consciously checking the ingredients in the sandwich he was eating for dinner at , Kunon reflected on his day.

He studied in the morning and practiced magic independently in the afternoon.

For the past week, this cycle has been the same. I dont even want to change it.

No progress has been made yet, but still.

Im glad. Im glad. Its been worth all the love Ive been lavishing on you.

No, Iko youre fine.

If you say this isnt enough, well have to cuddle! Do you want me to sleep with you?

I see. I dont want it.

Aside from the maidservants, I think my father, mother, and brother love me.

Im sure the family couldnt stand the sight of Kunon looking backward because they loved him so much and Kunon was almost overwhelmed with apologies.

As a result, he was given a room with few steps and is now living with a maidservant away from his family.

This was the environment Kunon had asked for.

Its an environment that Kunon asked for, because it would make him feel uncomfortable if he saw them, and it would make him sigh. It is not Kunons intention to do so.

Even in this situation, he still comes to see me once in a while, so I think he loves me.

For the sake of my family, I definitely want to get a vision. I dont want them to have to worry about me anymore.

I dont think I have enough knowledge or magic, especially physical strength.

Im fainting every day.

I dont know if its a lack of magic or a lack of physical strength. Im sure its both.

You cant blame yourself for that, can you?Kunon youre is only seven years old. Your mind and body will grow from now on.

I think Iko is right.

But thats too late. It is too late.

If it is possible, I would like to have a vision right now.

I cant wait for my mind and body to grow.

But, yes, youre right. Kunon-sama is a small eater and maybe a little small for someone its age.

I see, Kunon nodded.

I dont have enough physical strength either.

I didnt think that the body was lacking as well, but I know how to solve it.

I just have to eat. A lot more.

And you need to work out a little, right?

Because of my blindness, I rarely move my body.If I move too much, Ill either bump or fall.

As a result, I am so weak that I get out of breath with just a little movement.

Iko is not out of breath even when she walks with a fallen Kunon in her arms.

Yes I guess You might want to build up your muscles just a little bit more.

Im not blind, but that doesnt mean Im in bad shape. Up until now, I didnt even care about living, which was fine.

But thats not good enough now.

Ive learned in the past week.

In the end, its all about the body when it comes to handling magic and using magic. Its all about physical strength.

You cant talk about it if youre gasping for breath after just a couple of uses of magic.

You need a minimum level of physical strength to train.

If you dont, its not efficient.

There is a famous story of a dark lord in the history of some country who made all kinds of improvements and political corruption at the same time, and collapsed without being able to do anything about it.

In short, he tried to do too many things at once and couldnt do them.

To avoid such a situation, I have set a direction and do what I can, one thing at a time, so that I do not waver.

I am sure that this will be the best shortcut in the end.

The first is magic.

This should be the first priority to master.

The second is physical training.

I have to build a body in order to use magic.

When you run out of magic, you train your body, and when your body is tired, you train your magic.

In theory, it should work like that.

Kunon thought, This is it. The direction was set.

Ico, I want you to increase the amount of food I eat.

I understand.

I also want to work out, what would you suggest?

The first thing that comes to mind is walking or running, but Kunon cant do that. Hell probably just fall down and get hurt.

Iko, who has seen me fall many times in front of her, understands without saying anything.

Hmmm. Wouldnt it be better if you practice swings, so you wouldnt have to move from the   spot?

Swinging? Like with a sword?

Yes.

Can you teach me how to do that?

I think I understand the theory, but Ive never seen a sword or a swing before.

Its better to ask for help than to do it on your own.

Oh, no. I dont know anything about martial arts. Why dont you ask your father for advice?Im sure even a gatekeeper can teach you how to swing.

Right. Then can I ask him?

I understand. Ill ask him tonight Oh, the Master and the Mistress arent here tonight, are they? Ill talk to Mr.Balen tomorrow.

Balen is the steward of the Gurion family.

If the parents are absent, Balen is in charge of running the house in the meantime.

Yes, please.

Kunon now had more work to do.

However, this was also something to look forward to.

There must be a close relationship between training magic and training the body.

No matter what the difficulty, Kunon is willing to work hard for the sake of visibility.

There is no other reason to live at this point.

The next day.

In the afternoon, while I was sweating out my magic training, an unknown footstep came.

Nice to meet you, Kunon. Im Ouro Tauro, former master of the North-Tiger kendo technique.

From the croaky voice, it was a very old man.

Its a good idea to have a good idea of what youre looking for.

Ouro are you Master Ouro?

That was the name of my brothers swordsmanship teacher, Master Ouro.

Yes, it is, Ouro. I heard you, Kunon asked me to teach you how to swing swords. Thats why Im here.

Are you sure? The famous Master Ouro is teaching me, and as you can see, Im blind, so I cant do any real sword fighting.

The old swordsman laughed, though a little of Kunons old reluctance came out.

Hmmm. Swordsmanship is, by nature, not a proper art. Its a skill that weak people learn to become strong.

In the natural world, it is an unnatural act that transforms the weak into the strong. Can you call that proper now?

I dont really understand that kind of thing, so why dont you just teach me right away, Kunon thought.
