The Magician Kunon Sees Everything

Chapter 52: Enrollment Day

Have a good day.

See you.

Kunon was sent off by Linco and left the house.

The weather was fine.

A distant breeze carried the heat of the lingering summer heat loosely into the distance.

Im glad its not raining.

The day of his entrance into the magic school, which would be a major milestone in his life, would surely be fine with such a normal, uneventful weather.

Its a place Ill be going to every day from now on.

He has learned the way to the school so that he can go there by himself even if he cant see it.

Its not that far, so Kunon has decided to walk to school.

The surrounding sounds are clear.

On rainy days, the footing is not good and it is difficult to hear the sounds around him. This makes it difficult for Kunon to walk normally.

Im really glad it cleared up.

Good morning, Mr. Kunon.

Good morning, Mr. Kunon.

Ha-ha-ha-ha.

Woof! Woof!

Ha-ha-ha-ha.

Ive been able to build a good relationship with my neighbors.

Were already regulars at the bakery and grocery store near our house, and Dios big, log-work-like dog is very cute. Also, I dont know which familys dog is cute. Hes wearing a collar, so Im sure, he belongs to someone.

The neighbors already know about Kunons eyes, so they call out to him when they see him.

They are very kind people and dogs.

Good morning! You have a beautiful voice today, dont you? Its as if I can even hear the beautiful voice of your beautiful heart.

Hey, youre a beautiful little dog.

He greeted the neighbors and the dog and continued on his way.

Kunon stopped and looked at them with his mirror eyes.

Hello

Hes still stuck here again today.

And there was no response.

There is a narrow alleyway between buildings on the road, just enough for one person to pass through.

There, a huge man is wedged in between the buildings.

His skin is red, his hair is white, and his muscular body is naked without clothes. The veins floating in the air were truly majestic.

I found out that he was a demon called Oga.

When I saw him, I thought he was a person, but he was like the crab behind Kunon.

No, maybe not exactly.

After all, there was no sorcerer to carry him, and he had been stuck in a narrow alleyway, unmoving, for a long time.

He had been there ever since Kunon had found him about two weeks ago.

Its a long time, too long even for a psychopath who likes to fit into the right places.

Well, more importantly, I cant touch him because he has no substance.

I was even surprised when a dog slipped through him.

Is this another pattern of law breaking, or just an exception to the rule?

I wonder if I can find this out too.

As usual, I see a lot of strange things.

Kunons mirror eyes still had trouble seeing moving objects.

The information he sees changes dramatically in the blink of an eye.

The brain cant accept that amount of information.

They look for a moment and release it.

Then, I decode the viewed scene later.

I still cant see things except through such repetition.

Ive gotten used to it, but its going to be a long time before I can have 24/7 vision like a normal person.

When that happens, Im sure well be able to discover many more mysterious beings like this Oga.

Its not that I want to.

As expected, Ive gotten used to the existence of this kind of mystery.

Still, its been bothering me for a long time, and I hope Ill eventually find the answer.

Kunon arrived safely at the magic school.

Kunon. Good morning.

Is that Rubella?

I knew there was someone near the school gate, but it was the receptionist I had met when I applied for admission.

Im going to show you around the school, so please follow me.

Yes. Huh? Are you alone?

The three of you have gone ahead of me. You know the place where you took the written test when you took the entrance exam? Ill take you to that place.

Are you giving me a special tour? Thank you very much. Ms. Rubella is a kind woman.

Its just a favor, though.

Can I like you? Well, I already do.

Yes, yes. You say that to all women in your life, dont you?

Im not a very romantic guy. Ive told about ninety-eight percent.

If youre going to go that far, I think its more manly to say ten percent.

The receptionist guides Kunon, although she is concerned about the two percents.

Ill leave you to it.

Thank you for showing me around. Let me buy you lunch as a thank you.

The receptionist dodged Kunons request and left.

Kunon saw the receptionist off and opened the door.

Im not satisfied.

At the place he was taken to, there was some kind of dispute going on.

No, its not for me to say

There were three people in the classroom.

One of the unconvincing ones is Saint Rayes Centrance, who failed to make a commitment during the entrance exam.

The one who is having trouble with the saint is Hank Beat.

And then theres Leeya Horse, whos confused because she cant seem to find her way around the dispute between the two.

For Kunon, who had taken the entrance exam with them, they were what he would call his peers.

Good morning. Its nice to see you guys again. What? How happy am I?Its like when you get a thicker slice of bacon than usual every morning.

Oh, good morning.

Good morning.

As usual, the saint ignored me, but Hank and Leeya returned the favor.

Whats the trouble? I can help you if you want.

Trouble, I mean

Hank, who had been reluctant to say anything, looked at the saint and the saint said in response.

We were discussing the policy of the special class. I hadnt been told before entering the school that my allowance would be cut off or that I would have to earn my own living expenses. 

Oh, I see.

Thats why I cant accept it.

As I recall, Hank had been a teachers assistant at this magic school as an underling.

So the saint must have consulted him, thinking that he would know the inner workings of the school to a certain extent.

Youll be fine, right?

Yes? What makes you say that? Let me tell you, I have to earn one and a half million Nekka a month by simple calculation.

One and a half million a month.

Thats about twice as much as Kunon. What kind of life is that?

Do good women need money to improve themselves?

Ignoring Kunons comment, the saint continued, 

When I looked for a job, I was told that there was no such a job where I could earn that much money in a month, that the only way was to become a mistress of a nobleman. Impolite.

I thought she had said that she was not very emotional, but there was a hint of anger in the saints voice.

Probably quite a bit.

It may seem a little annoying to the casual observer, but in reality, she may be very angry.

One and a half million. Thats a lot of money. But youre okay, right? -Youre in trouble, arent you?

Kunon said to Hank.

He was also hoping for a special class.

In addition, picking up a saint is fine for now, because he remembered Ikos lesson: If you cant push, pull.

Of course, my interest is still very high.

Hmm? Yeah No, its easy for me because Im a commoner and I only need to earn my own food. But youre the son of a nobleman, so you must have a lot of things to do, right?

Yes, thats true. I can manage my own living expenses, but the servants wage is putting pressure on me.

It might be possible to send the servant home, but Kunon found it very difficult to make that decision.

I think I can handle some things on my own, but it will be difficult to live on my own.

I think I need help with housework and other things, and I also need to have someone nearby who knows me well.

Kunon has become more cheerful in many ways, but he still feels lonely when he is alone.

Hey, youre all here.

As we were talking about this, the teacher came over.

It was Serph Cricket, whom he had met during the entrance exam, and his assistant, Seyfi.
