The Magician Kunon Sees Everything

Chapter 25: We left the Black Tower

Were sorry.

The royal court sorcerers and Kunon, who had been heavily angered by the knights and civil servants who were rushing in, apologized firmly to the biggest victim, the maid who had screamed.

As they watched from the outside, they had no idea how it would look from inside the castle.

They even greeted the many people who came running from the castle with a nonchalant Whats going on?

They apologized when they heard that Kunons water doll had caused quite a panic in the castle because it looked like a jump from the castle.

Rondimond, the royal wizard commissioner himself, announced on the spot that their salary would be reduced, and a settlement was reached with the reduced salary going directly to him as compensation.

After the situation was settled in this way, the soldiers and knights left the royal court magicians who apologized flatly and pulled out.

-The gaze of the knight who caught Leisha and Kunon in the big slip incident this morning was painful. Well, Kunon couldnt see, so he wouldnt know. It was well received by Leisha.

Oh dear. I think we got a little carried away.

Rondimond breathed a sigh of relief.

How far can you fly this thing? Youve never done it before? Lets give it a try., he was the one who suggested it.

You just cant fly people It was fun, but

Leisha let out a sigh as well.

Faster! Faster! She was the one who encouraged him to go faster.

Ive been told off twice in one morning.

Kunon, the main source of the problem, also let out a sigh.

My first time in a royal castle, and twice in one morning.

If it was once, it might still end with a warning, but not twice. Two times is definitely a lot.

Im sure my father will punish me later.

It was very depressing.

So, what are you going to do with him?

One of the royal court sorcerers who is also losing confidence.. is the sorcerer Viktor, who asked Rondimond about the work with Kunon.

Youre right. Its not good to be depressed all the time. Lets get ourselves together.

Its too early to take it back and I dont feel any remorse at all, but its true that we cant move forward if were depressed, so we have no choice now.

Wow!

Some of us jumped into the super soft water ball with a bang.

Bring back the cat!

Dont touch it! Ill raise it!

Im going to raise it! Some of them fought over the water cat, showing no real signs of remorse.

Also, Kunon decided not to worry about it.

Failure is inevitable in magic, and through experimentation and failure, progress is made little by little.

Its not good worrying about it every time.

But its too early to say.

Now lets discuss it. Lets talk over lunch, Mr. Kunon.

Yes, sir. By the way, what are my test results?

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

You dont have to ask. Ill take full responsibility as your teacher.

In other words, I passed.

I knew that I had passed the test, but now that it was put into words, I felt a surge of joy.

I did it! Yes!

Kunon Gurion. Nine years old.

This one day in winter, he was accepted as a royal court magician.

Not as a noblemans son, but as a mere apprentice sorcerer.

It was the first achievement he had won with his own hands.

-And it was also the day that two more stains were added to the official story.

You know why were here, dont you?

Over lunch, I continued to have a pleasant and enjoyable conversation with the royal sorcerers.

They talked about interesting experiments, failures, new magic, and other things that easily surpassed Kunons knowledge, which he had studied hard.

Kunon took notes anyway.

He made sure to record every single word so that he would never forget this precious time.

-Then, such a pleasant time came to an end with the arrival of his father, Arson.

One of the sorcerers said, Kunon, your father is here.

As soon as the meaning of the words entered my mind, the blood drained from my face as quickly as I could tell.

Hes here.

He had finally arrived.

When I went to the entrance of the Black Tower with Leisha, who was escorting me, I saw my father standing there, already angry from the first sign of his presence.

He said, Im here.

You know why Im here, dont you?

Uhm, father, Im afraid I cant join you on the way home today, as I have a dinner engagement for the evening

The father showed no mercy to his upset son, whose language was strange.

Thats twice. Twice today, in the morning alone, father had heard his sons disapproval. What does that mean, Kunon?

Im sorry, I got carried away.

As I suspected, he was angry with me for doing it twice.

If it was only once, but it has been twice, and he would not forgive me.

The truth is, even one time would not be acceptable.

No, Lord Gurion. Its not Kunons fault, we instructed him to do so

His father interrupted Leisha, who was trying to defend Kunon, with a harsh voice, Thats not true.

Im not very bright in magic, but I dont think that the sorcerer is not responsible for whatever happens.

If that were the case, hurting people or killing people because someone told you to would be tolerated because of someone else.

Kunon, do you understand?

You know why I tried to avoid teaching you magic that you would use to attack?

Its because you still dont think about what will happen with the magic you use. Thats why you were making such a mess today.

No matter what anyone tells you to do, if you think you will hurt someone or something, refuse.

I did it because someone told me to do it, and it turned out badly.

But you cant be so irresponsible that you think its not your fault because someone told you to do it.

Magic is power.

As long as you wield power, you will always be responsible for whatever you do.

If you are going to study magic in a serious way, you should graduate from being an irresponsible child.

You should think about what your magic can do and how it can help you, and use it properly.

Yes. Im sorry.

Kunon apologized honestly.

Its just like his father said. I cant say anything back.

Its a good idea to think about whats going to happen when I use it, even if its Rondimonds instructions.

Kunon was the one who flew the Water Doll near the castle.

If you think about why the Black Tower is so far away from the castle, you should have known right away that you shouldnt do flying magic in the direction of the castle.

There is no excuse.

Im sorry.

Leisha, a member of the group who made Kunon use his magic, bowed together with all the sorcerers.

Why even Leisha No, its okay.

Anyway, this incident is over now.

I dont think the father should be dragged into this too much now that hes more likely to be his sons future employer, theres no reason to get into more trouble than necessary.

Kunon had been here until this time.

That was proof that he was well-liked by the royal sorcerers. He must have passed the test.

So, Kunon, Im leaving now. Kunon, I hope youre on your way to Her Highness.

Yes, sir What?

Please dont be rude to Her Highness, Milica.

With an indescribable look at the sorcerers lying buried in the super soft water ball near the doorway, the father left.

Kunon, who was left behind, could not measure the meaning of the words.

He had been so engrossed in the pleasant conversation that he had completely lost all sense of time.

In fact, it was already evening.

His father would have to leave a little early but he wanted to discipline Kunon before dinner.

Before the fun, before the excitement.

Right. Maybe I should go pick up Milica now.

What? Really? Is it time already?

The sky is not only red, but its getting darker already.

Kunon, who can not see, does not understand.

Kunon left the black tower with a regretful feeling.

Oh, wait a minute.

Once back in the room, Leisha returned after being booed by her friends for telling them that Kunon was leaving.

He was about to walk away when she stopped him. Since were here, lets combine the techniques and go quickly.

Yes? Combine techniques?

Can you make the soft water ball aori, that people are sleeping in, float with people on it?

Yes, I can.?

Let me see.

Kunon does as shes told and pulls out the super soft water ball.

Here we go. Come on, Kunon, get in.

What? Yes.

I dont know what shes planning to do, but half in anxiety and half in anticipation, Kunon got on the super soft water ball too.

Once we were both on board, we manipulated the water ball to make it float.

-My sigil is the wind. If theres no gravity, then the wind should propel me forward.

I can operate it and get it to a certain speed.

Its synergy.

Interesting, Kunon thought.

Synergy.

In other words, they fly in synergy.

Im not sure how much speed I can achieve with my own magic manipulation and Leishas wind power.

-He had heard a lot of valuable things about the Black Tower, but he hadnt been able to get a true sense of their abilities.

If we can do some interesting experiments at the end of the day, Im all for it.

Ive never had the idea of riding in a water balloon before. Its really interesting.

Interesting is mutual. Im curious about you, too. Im sure youre a magical woman who can play with children like a naughty wind.

Why did you choose children only? It sounds like a special kind of hobby. -Oh well, come on, lets go!

Youre lucky its soft.

Its good to be soft.

Kunons manipulation and Leishas wind.

As a result of combining the two, the plane flew at a ridiculous speed, and the strength of the wind hitting the body caused Kunon to mismanage the plane, causing it to lose its balance and crash.

Sorry, my mistake

No, its not. I should have kept the risk of failure in mind as soon as we tried it. It was my supervisory error.

I barely managed to stay alive unscathed by maneuvering the super soft water ball so that it wrapped around the two of us, cushioning us.

They rolled violently on the ground, and when they finally stopped, they stood up.

Both of them were so terrified that their legs were shuffling like newborn deer.

Really.

If they were not careful, they would have died. It was way too fast.

We need to do more experiments.

Yes, we do.

The result was almost an accident, but it was a discovery that will change the history of transportation and mobility.

Thats the third time, Lady Leisha.

It seems that he saw them rolling around on the ground somewhere and came running.

It was the third time today that I met the knight who caught us this morning.

They were both really pissed off.
