The Magician Kunon Sees Everything

Chapter 63: Rules

Its been a month since I arrived at the magic school.

In my previous daily life, I just couldnt collect samples.

It was because there were so few sorcerers.

What Kunon could see could be divided into sorcerers and non-sorcerers.

The ones with only a part of something showing are the ones who are not sorcerers.

Those who have all of it are sorcerers.

First, those who are not sorcerers.

It could be horns, wings, different colored eyes like a hero, or jet black wings of a fallen angel.

There is no consistency in the parts that appear, but they seem to adhere to the partly appearing restriction.

The only one who seemed to be an exception was Kunons father, Arson Gurion, whose entire body was a blur.

I dont think its against the law to think that a part of something is on the surface of the body.

Well, its a process of elimination.

The reason is that on the way to the magic town of Dillashick, there were a number of people who looked vaguely like him.

Those people, including my father, were not sorcerers, so I classified them as different.

Before I came here, it was hard to make any kind of judgment because the sample was so small.

There were many things that became clear to me after I came here.

One of them is the law of what you can see.

A sorcerer and a non-sorcerer see things fundamentally differently.

They are too different.

Magicians, including Kunon himself, are not something that can be easily described as partially showing.

They are all over the place.

They are clearly visible, so clear that you can tell at a glance what they are. It was in full view.

So far, I dont think there is any deviation from the law that determines whether a person is a sorcerer or not.

It is a sorcerer who is fully visible.

This is a new rule Ive learned from seeing so many sorcerers at this school.

_______

Im Bail Kirkington, head of the Faction of Ability based in this castle. I apologize first. Im sorry for calling you out, even youre not part of the faction yet.

There are three people standing in front of Kunon.

The one in the middle said his name.

He is carrying a creature that looks like a lump of metal.

Its a huge, dull-colored lump of iron that you cant help but look up to.

Kunon couldnt tell.

But if he followed the laws, it must be some kind of living thing.

If not a creature, it might be a law breaker.

The new law is the classification of sorcerers.

The appearance and tendencies of the being behind the sorcerer can now be used to determine the attributes of the sorcerer to some extent.

Water is an aquatic creature.

Fire and earth are terrestrial creatures.

Wind is the magic floating in the air.

I cant say for sure about light and dark yet, because I dont have enough samples.

Light is white matter.

Darkness also seems to be a living thing.

I dont know about the magical attributes, because I havent met any so far.

Perhaps Geneva, with her full human form, is a demonic attribute, but it is very possible that she is not.

With a few exceptions,for example, crabs can live on land, and even terrestrial creatures can be subterranean.

If more samples are collected, we may be able to read more detailed information.

The one person in front of me right now is also an existence that defies classification, so his authenticity is still questionable.

However, what possessed the sorcerers remains a mystery.

Well, Ill think about that later.

However, you know why youre here, dont you? I am Lulomet, representative of the Faction of Rationality.

Next, the man on the right.

He is carrying a black tree on his back as if it were his own shadow, a young tree like a cutout from a lightless night.

Yes, he is one of the exceptions.

Can we consider plants to be living things?

At least, Ive never seen a plant before.

I dont know which category they fall into.

This is Shiroto, representative of the Harmony Faction.

Lastly, the woman on the left.

Shes covered in rain clouds.

A few swarming clouds, smoky with the hue of scuffed ink.

The occasional flash of lightning.

In terms of classification, it is wind.

And her right arm, covered by clothing and gloves, is probably gone.

It looks like it is there to the naked eye, but Kunon feels a strong magical power coming from it.

I knew in my gut that it must not exist as a physical body.

He was not sure if she had lost what was there, or if she was born without it.

Nice to meet you. Ive always wanted to meet you. I hope youll spend some time with me.

Shes just like Kunon.

Like Kunon, she uses magic to make up for the parts of her body that dont exist.

If youre born with a heros scar like Kunon.

No, even if you are not.

Even if what you are recreating is different, but if you are using magic to cover what is missing, I cant help but feel a strong interest in you as a colleague.

But Kunons words were misunderstood by many.

Or maybe not misunderstood at all.

The room of more than fifty people quieted down.

It was because they were surprised.

I was genuinely surprised.

Because no one expected him to hit on a woman in this situation.

Even Shiroto, who was being propositioned, was surprised.

It is well known that Kunon Gurion has a soft spot for women and likes them.

He used to be an ordinary student.

He came here as a simple two-star sorcerer, without the background of royalty or inherent magic to make a name for himself.

The fact that the teacher is the recently famous Zeonly has attracted a lot of attention

But thats just the beginning.

The reason why he became so famous within a month of entering the school is because he is excellent.

And as his name spread, so did his character as a womanizer with a soft spot for women.

This was because he had a very strong personality that stood out so much that if you were to talk about Kunon, you would want to say something about him every second word.

As a result, the equations Kunon is soft on women and If you want to ask Kunon a favor, go through a woman have become common knowledge.

But even so.

He has the courage to reveal his soft spot for women and his love for women in this place where the eyes and emotions of antagonists are swirling.

It was the courage to speak sweetly to Shiroto in this situation.

The silence was such that I was worried that everyone had stopped breathing.

Some of us were dumbfounded and even impressed by a child who could say such a thing under such circumstances.

The rumor of Kunon Gurion has already spread

Theres a big difference between hearing about it and seeing it in person.

When I saw him in person, I realized that he was, in many ways, extraordinary.

What the hell is wrong with you?

The owner of the heroic voice that tore through the silence, as if time had stopped, was Sandra from Rationality. Today, too, shes in high spirits.

Hey, kid! I hope you understand this situation! Youre the reason were all here!

Sandra walks up to Kunon.

And youre the reason the three factions are on the verge of a fight! How are you going to settle this! Even if the representatives and the others forgive you, I wont!

I totally understand.

Kunon nodded.

Thank you everyone for gathering for me. But please dont fight for me.

Its not for you, its because of you! What you did is not fair! You were replying to all of us!

Nice to meet you. Im Kunon. Whats your name?

Does my name really matter now?

You and I seem to get along well. Im sure youll have some great magic. Do you have time after this? Would you like to discuss magic with me?

Sandra, as she is later known, has a huge fish swimming around her.

No, I think I was wrong, looking closer, it was a swarm of small fish.

Its an illusion effect.

This is the wisdom of making a swarm look like a big fish to protect yourself from predators.

Well, whether we really hit it off or not, Im sure shes a water wizard like Kunon.

We may not see eye-to-eye, but I think well get along.

Oh man, this guy scares me a little.

Sandra began to buckle under Kunons strong-heartedness.

He didnt respond. Its not that hes not responding or that hes defiant. Its just that hes a little abrupt in his comments isnt he? Youre going to answer our questions, arent you? can you say that?

Shiroto, who was left to speak by Bail, dutifully repeats his statement from Well, calm down, Sandra.. to Kunon.

If the response is blatantly different between a man and a woman, it is because he judged that a statement from a woman would be more resonant.

Of course, Miss Shiroto. If you ask me a question, Im sure Id answer more than whats being asked.

Its really obvious.

Lets get on with it. Kunon, what faction are you going to join? Can you tell them?

This time Shiroto took Lulomets words and dutifully repeated them to Kunon, starting with Already quick...

Of course, I would say to your faction, but Ive been asked out by many women. But I cant pick just one. So Im thinking of joining all the factions.

.

How can I be a gentleman if I humiliate a woman who has summoned up the courage to come to me and not accept her invitation? Im just trying to be a gentleman.

A second silence fell.

Everyone who was looking at Kunon was thinking.

His sense of being a gentleman is probably very off.
