The Magician Kunon Sees Everything

Milica, who was reading a letter in her room, kicked her chair, stood up, and howled.

“Oh my God! Laura, oh my God!”

I knew that it would be a big deal.

When I handed her the letter from her fianсee, she snatched it, opened it, and inspected it immediately.

While reading the letter, Milica’s expression changed dramatically.

With surprise.

With joy.

After all, it was a surprise.

“Kunon, he is coming to the castle!”

–Milica’s personal maid, Laura, agreed that this was a big deal.

Normally, it was Milica who went to see him.

This was in accordance with the circumstances on the other side.

It seems that her fianсee is coming to the royal castle this time.

–Milica had been a bit gloomy when her fianсee was chosen, but now she was looking forward to meeting her fianсee, Kunon Gurion.

“Why can we only see each other once every two weeks?

I mean, not for two or three days, but at least once a week would be nice.”      

I don’t know when she started saying this, but it became a daily expression.

A boy named Kunon Gurion was born without sight because of the effects of the Hero’s Scar.

Milica is both happy and sad by his words and actions.

Laura, the maid of honor, has a normal interest in the boy who fascinates and plays with her master.

If it were me, and I were born blind, I’m sure I’d be living in pessimism.

But from what Milica had told, Kunon Gurion seemed to be quite a bright boy. I’ve heard so many cheerful anecdotes that I can’t believe it’s true. I’m also curious about that.

“Mr. Kunon, is he coming to see Miss Milica?”

“What? Oh, ahm, …… ah, yes …….”

Milica’s smile, as she checked the letter, gradually faded into a sad expression. It seems that he is not coming to see Milica.

“He’s coming to see the royal sorcerer. He’s going to take a simple test and if he passes, he’ll be introduced to the magic teacher.”

“Oh wow. That’s amazing.”

Kunon Gurion has become an experienced sorcerer, but he is still an unproven apprentice.

It is difficult for such an apprentice to meet a skilled royal court magician, even if he has the connections of a high-ranking nobleman.

However, I can’t help but wonder why.

This was another story that Milica had told me even though I hadn’t asked her about it. Every time I saw her, she would show me Kunon’s magic, and I couldn’t believe my ears.

I didn’t understand what she meant by animals made of water.

According to Milica, the texture can be reproduced perfectly. ……What does it mean to have the texture of fur when it is water?

Maybe the royal sorcerer was also curious about the obscure story behind it and invited him over to have a closer look.

“He’ll meet me …… right?”

He’s coming to the royal castle, but not to see Milica.

I wonder if he’ll be able to see her – she seems to be a little worried about that.

“Why don’t you reply to his letter? You could write back to say that you’d like to have tea with him after the test.”

“But if he says no, then ……”

“From what Milica said, I don’t think Kunon would say no.”

If it’s Kunon Gurion, as Laura recognizes him, he’ll say, “It’s a shame, because I was going to ask you out, my princess. So can I just decline and ask you out myself?”

“But…but……… if he refuses………”

A girl in love is always happy and sad over the smallest things.

She was a little embarrassed and smiled at the same time seeing herself in the distant past.

I'm getting old too, Laura thought.

But that’s beside the point.

“Miss Milica. I’d like to check on something…”

Milica, who had decided to send a letter, looked up from her unfolded paper.

“What? If Kunon says no, I definitely will cry or sob, but please don’t give me this annoying look.”

I may.

Milica’s crying is long and tiresome.

……No, don't let’s talk about that right now.

“It seems that Her Highness the Third and Fourth Princes, as well as the other princes and princesses, need to be checked or taken care of.”

“That’s right.”

A young girl in love becomes the face of a small ruler.

Even if the ninth princess is far from the right of inheritance to the throne, her tough face, which gives off a sense of authority, is unmistakably that of royalty.

“I wonder if they know that Kunon is coming?”

“I think they do. I’m sure the information leaked out during the procedure of connecting with the royal sorcerer.”

In other words, by the time she finds out, she is already behind.

In Milica’s position, the information battle within the royal castle is designed to be absolutely impossible to win.

“If it’s ……, do you think they’ll let us know when they’re coming?”

Well …… I am not sure. It’s not surprising that there are some leaks, but Mr. Kunon has not yet proven himself, so his abilities are not known.

I don’t think they’re marking him that strongly just yet, either.”

“Yeah…….”

With a critical look on her face, Milica started to write on the letterhead.

“I’m going to see my sister, Leisha. Forewarning. Also, go get this letter out.”

“Understood”

Then, a day later, she got a letter back.

“Yes, Laura! Mr. Kunon said he’ll see me after the test!”

Milica jumped for joy because of the letter.

“I’m happy for you. What did he write exactly?”

“Well, he said, ‘If you don’t mind, why don’t we have dinner at a restaurant outside so we can spend more time together? I’d like to see your face shining even under the night sky. I can’t see it, though.’ That’s right!”

“Oh.”

"Well done, Kunon", Laura thought. He’s set up an invitation that goes above and beyond Milica’s expectations.

“It’s the first time Kunon has asked me out for dinner! I can go, can’t I?”

“If I accompany you and provide an escort.”

They were just kids, but they still were the future bridal couple of noble families.

They will not be left alone together, and as long as they don’t come home late, it won’t be a problem.

“Prepare for the oil massage! You need to get cleaned up!”

“You don’t need to do that yet.”

Eleven-year-olds don’t need to do that.

Her skin is smooth and water repellent. Her hair is shining with youthfulness. Her eyes are clear and sparkling.

I’m really getting old, Laura thought to herself.
