The Magician Kunon Sees Everything

Chapter 54: 10th day of school

A Problem? I dont think so.

Really? Are you sure you dont want to say anything?

Id say something, but Id fall asleep before I could say anything.

Oh, right. Were all tired.

To put it simply, Kunons business was a hit.

It started with a free trial, and by the tenth day, four or five people a day were coming forward to use the service.

Youll feel as if youve slept half a day in just a short time!

The fatigue of two or three nights is reduced to less than one!

Once youve experienced it, youll never be able to escape it anymore.

With the option of plush toys that look like the real thing! The most popular is the big hairless rat!

With a threatening repeat customer rate of more than one hundred percent, rumors of this sleep environment quickly spread, due in part to the fact that it was the business of a disciple of Zeonly

There were not a few people who were cold-hearted or looking at the situation, but including them, it was showing signs of becoming a trend in the magic school.

And it was only the tenth day of the school year.

I think I may have stabilized by now. Thank you for everything, Mr. Serph.

Kunon was very grateful to Serph for all his help, lecturing him on the basics of business, securing a location, gathering customers, and publicity.

Kunon was very happy to have Serph as a consultant.

I also set the price.

At this rate, he could earn the necessary living expenses in half a month instead of a month.

What Kunon is afraid of at the moment is the existence of a follow-up business where someone has recreated the super soft water ball.

This is a magic school.

Its not unusual for someone to be better than Kunon.

There are probably a lot of people who could do it if they wanted to.

I didnt think Id be able to build a system that would make money this fast, though Rest. Its an essential element of human life besides food, clothing, and shelter. There are some people who use it.

I think that falls under the category of housing, but thats okay for now.

Kuons business soon began to take off.

After Serph started collecting signatures from teachers and students and submitting them to the school, he was able to rent three small empty classrooms in the school building.

These classrooms can be rented by individuals to house special class students or as temporary laboratories.

Anyone can rent these classrooms, as long as they apply for what they will be doing there.

All classrooms he rented were located on the second floor.

The less frequently used classrooms were on the upper floors, so the first and second floors were up for grabs.

It all happened so fast.

Today, Serph had just come to check on the rented classrooms.

Business was good and there were still people sleeping in the room.

It used to be an empty classroom, but it was quickly becoming Kunons living space.

Library books were crammed in and interesting descriptions were being transcribed there were already several stacks of paper.

Kunon is still a child of twelve.

However, his desk is already that of a sorcerer.

If the owner was not present, no one would think that this was a classroom used by a child.

Serph does not question it at all, but it makes him uncomfortably aware that he is the disciple of Zeonly

He is quite strange and frivolous on the inside, but his attitude toward magic is genuine.

One of the rented classrooms is for Kunons laboratory, and the other two are for business

The two classrooms are divided into two sections, one for men and one for women, and the users sleep there. There are a few people sleeping in them right now.

Those who really need this business will go back to work immediately after taking a nap, so this is not the place to be they often sleep in dedicated laboratories.

So the users here are the calm ones.

Or perhaps I should say, the ones who still have enough spare time.

The teachers and students taking a nap in the dedicated laboratories looked quite dangerous, even to Kunon who was blind.

So much so that it was easy to see why Serph was moving so quickly.

Kunon also forgets to eat and sleep when he is immersed, but the people at this school are no exception. It seems like they are pushing him even further to the edge of the thresholds.

I was already on the verge of fainting.

In the case of Kunon, he was stopped by Iko and Linco before he could push himself to the edge.

If he hadnt been stopped, he would have been in the same state.

Its interesting magic, by the way. I guess thats what happens when you cover water with a highly elastic and flexible membrane.

The super soft water ball, otherwise known as the water bed.

Serph has also tried sleeping on one, and it was definitely a good one.

Its softer than any good bed, and you dont even feel the weight of your own body, which is inevitable.

Its a magical bed, so it will be gone in a day or two, but it was so good that he truly regretted it.

If he could, he would change his bed at home to one of those.

The high rate of repeat customers is a result of the many people who felt the same way.

Theres more to it than just the bed, though. But its a secret, okay?

Serph is also an excellent magician, although he is not a water magician.

He knows that there are many tricks in that water ball.

And that there are others.

What? Why dont you tell me about it?

He also understood that the trick was quite complicated.

Its is a magic approved by Zeonly

Hmmm. I wonder if I can teach it to Mr. Serph.

Yes.

The secret is the big hairless rat.

Kunon held up a hairless rat made of water in his hands and showed it to me.

Hey, are you sure thats the most popular one?

Yes. Anybody, even if they dont like the water bed, can hold this and fall asleep immediately.

Is it the size? Or weight? Is it the texture? I dont know, but it seems to be just right.

Here, he was offered, but Serph refused to accept the big hairless rat, No thanks.

I dont think Im going to be able to get out of it once I touch it, because its going to make my life crazy.

Kunon wasnt sure what Serph was talking about, but he nodded his head and turned off the hairless giant rat.

Anyway, I know things are going well. You dont need me anymore. Ill come by from time to time to check on you, and then you can do whatever you want.

Okay. Thank you very much.

For the time being, this business would be enough to make ends meet for a while.

By the way, have you found anything you want to do?

For the first ten days of school, Kunon spent his days preparing for the offer to sleep and reading books out of unbridled intellectual curiosity.

But I cant spend the rest of my life like this.

I have to collect credits.

If he loses even one point out of ten, this comfortable and free learning environment will be taken away from him.

It would be safer to earn them as soon as possible.

Even though its.

Ive gotten a few invitations, but Im not sure I want to right now.

As Serph and the others had told me, there were a few requests from teachers and students to help with research as an assistant.

But I declined them.

The nice thing about this business is that you can take it easy.

The customers are asleep, and Kunon can read a book in the meantime.

The schools library is filled with books on sorcery.

I think I could spend my entire school life reading the books in the library.

Thats how happy I am with the environment.

I just want to read books now. I didnt know that Professor Satori had published so many books. She also had a report to write.

I still havent met the teacher of my dreams, but I did find the book she wrote.

There were also reports that were not really books.

Im reading through them now, focusing on those.

Well, its just the beginning, so theres no hurry yet. But be careful with your credits.

Yes.

And then.

By the way, Mr. Serph, what happened to Miss Reyes?

Hmm? Are you curious about it?

Yes, I am. I havent heard anything about her yet.

I knew I would have a chance to talk to her sooner or later, but since we were both busy at the moment, Kunon didnt go to see her.

Kunon was preparing for business and reading.

The saintly Reyes must have started working on the money problems she had faced as soon as she entered the school.

They were both occupied with their own affairs at the moment.

She and Seyfi seem to have a lot on their mind, but it doesnt seem to be going well.

so you dont feel like she can take the easiest way out?

Thats right. It is the domain of the clergy to treat the sick and injured, so they cant get even a single coin as an individual.

That sounds like a challenge.

That was exactly what Kunon thought before he could do.

He thought that he could go to some hospital or sanatorium and make a sales pitch, saying that he could cure everyone in the room for one million Nekka.

But that didnt seem to work.

Kunon, why dont you help her?

You dont have to tell me, Ill help her. Im on the side of women.

It was a dignified and immediate answer.

No need to say anything.

Well, that was to be expected.

But

Id like to say

Kunon tilted his head sadly.

I treat the special class as a full-fledged sorcerer, dont I? It would hurt her pride to rudely help a full-fledged person.

We are still friends, you know. Its not like were more than friends and less than lovers, and if she asks me to help her, its still a little hard to move voluntarily.

Thats a bit of a surprising answer.

Also, I still dont think Kunon and the Saint are friends or anything.

Well, I wont mention it because it wont change anything at the moment.

I dont know. Im still a gentleman, though, so Ive never been unpolite to anyone.

No, Im sure you have. Im sure it happens often.

If thats the case, please convince Miss Reyes to talk to me about it.

I dont know if I can help her, but I dont think its a bad idea to have an extra head to think about it.

Do you have any good business ideas?

No, I dont. I dont know what light magic is, so Im not at the stage where I can give her any ideas.

After all, if you ask me how to make money without the healing that is synonymous with light magic, I dont know what else I can do.

Serph nodded, Indeed.

If you want to make a lot of money, like 1.5 million, you cant do it with a real job.

Then, there is no other way but to use magic to earn money.

Then Kunon was right, if you dont know the light magic she deals with, you cant talk to her.

I invited her so much to teach me light magic, but she hasnt taught me at all

You cant help it, Serph said, shaking his head.

He wouldnt be the first to ask her out with a request that looked like a pick-up line.

Then we talked about hairless rats, checked on our classmates Hank and Leeya, and Serph left Kunons classroom.

It was five days later that Saint Reyes came to visit Kunons classroom.
