Kunon the Sorcerer Can See (魔術師クノンは見えている)

Then will you help with my ideas?

I'd like you to make bacon I can eat, Hank.

Bacon?!

And I want Riyah to fly.

Fly?!

Of course I'll pay you.

I think it's better than wasting your time away, no?

O-Okay.

I'll do it, Kunon.

FLYING AND ROASTING AND BEING INVITED

Here's my new product, the giant hairless rat.

For holding and going to sleep with?

Yes!

I received feedback that if the pillow is different,

it can be harder to fall asleep even on a water bed.

With this, you will fall asleep no matter what.

Would you like to try?

I have a feeling I'll be obsessed once I touch it, so I'll pass.

Are you sure?

And you?

I'll stay away as well.

Very well.

My sleeping beauties await, so please excuse me.

It seems to be going well.

It's impressive.

He built such an efficient system to make money in no time.

Reyes is doing well, too.

Hank and Riyah have started their experiments thanks to Kunon's advice.

Today marks one month since they enrolled here.

I suppose we don't need to supervise them anymore.

A month, huh? Perhaps the factions will make a move soon,

Is Kunon here?

I'd like to speak to him.

Me, too!

He just left.

What?!

Please excuse us.

They're on the move.

I can see a fierce battle already.

Now we have soft, smooth, giant hairless rats.

The perfect companion for your peaceful sleep!

A 60-minute course with the add-on!

I'll take a 90-minute course!

The business is doing well as usual.

A-ori.

You burned it again?

He's not here.

Where did he go?

Kunon?

I want you to make bacon that can satisfy me soon.

I've never made bacon with fire magic before, so...

Bacon is smoked for a long time, rather than putting it on the fire.

I think it's possible if you can maintain a constant heat.

I understand that,

but maintaining it for a long time is difficult.

What is it?

Nothing.

Then you've got to try again.

Fu-ra.

Whoa!

Eek!

Kunon.

Th-Thank you, Kunon.

You need to figure out how to float with stability first.

Right.

Here are your sandwiches.

The bacon's totally burnt... Are you sure this is okay?

Yes. I can't let food go to waste.

You take responsibility and eat these, too, Hank.

Sure.

May I have some as well?

I want to save up as much money as I can.

Of course.

Hank and I won't be able to finish all these sandwiches ourselves.

Hello, Miss Reyes.

I never imagined you would invite me to lunch!

May I talk about how moved I am all day long?

No, thank you.

I don't have to pay when I go to lunch with you, so I'm grateful for that.

This isn't... quite edible.

I'm sorry, but can I leave the bacon?

Miss Reyes!

Don't push yourself!

I'm sorry! I'm so ashamed!

So we should've waited for him here to begin with.

Looking all over for him like an idiot.

Who are you calling an idiot?

Kunon.

I just pulled an all-nighter.

Sell me good sleep, now!

Thank you for requesting me, my sleeping beauties and all of you.

Your Kunon has returned.

Oh, Kunon!

I'm first!

No, it's me!

Hey, don't cut in line!

I could collapse from fatigue at any moment!

Sorry.

Thank you for waiting!

Which course would you like?

So the thing is, Kunon...

What is this?

A sinful add-on for princesses who are in need of cradles,

to whisk them away to even better sleep.

That water bed itself provided a sanctuary.

And now magic for even better rest...

What would you like to do?

There are three beds remaining.

Giant hairless rat...

I'm curious.

I want to try it.

Ka-shi.

It's easy to produce fire, but...

I think it's possible if you can maintain a constant heat.

Easy for you to say.

Keep it low, keep it low.

Go higher.

Higher.

A new batch of shi-shilla, huh?

Professor Sureyya was raving about the quality of your previous report.

Professor.

Yes?

I'm still not convinced.

Why is it necessary for us to make money with magic?

Ever since you were small,

you all have only been doing experiments and research on magic, right?

In society, there are people who try to deceive

and take advantage of naive sorcerers like you.

Magic is a special power given only to the chosen people.

Our job is to foster sorcerers who can use that power correctly

by making them work to learn about society.

Did that convince you?

Yes.

Now it's Hank and Riyah's turn to figure it out.

I hope it goes well for them.

They've got Kunon.

What?

He's frivolous, but I'm sure they'll learn a lot from him.

Even though he's frivolous.

You're right.

Oh, recruiting for factions has started today.

Did anyone come to see you?

No.

No one? What about Kunon?

No.

That's strange.

This is strange.

No word from the students I sent out for recruitment.

No need to rush.

It's only the first day.

You're right.

They're late.

Factions?

They're the organizations of the students in the advanced class.

Among them, the three largest factions are Ability, Harmony, and Rationality.

Students in the advanced class are treated as full-fledged sorcerers, right?

Professors don't intervene more than necessary.

So these are kind of like mutual aid associations of students

who help each other when in need.

You know so much.

I used to be an assistant to a professor here.

I'm not too interested,

since we're in a free environment and all.

But there are experiments that require lots of help, you know?

Belonging to a faction can be helpful then.

Doing experiments surrounded by a lot of women, huh?

Recruitment was forbidden

for the first month so we could get used to school life.

Apparently yesterday was the opening day.

Can we put in a request?

Yes. I'm thinking about joining Harmony.
