Description
Kunon the Sorcerer Can See, Vol. 1 (light novel) tells the story of Kunon Gurion, a young boy born without sight who is uncertain of his purpose in life. Everything changes when he decides to find a way to use magic to see. This challenging endeavour is a feat that no sorcerer has ever attempted, and it promises to be far from easy.
Driven by his single-minded ambition, Kunon quickly surpasses his teacher. With just a few basic spells, he manages to sense colours, produce useful items, and even create a lifelike cat from water. His skills and ingenuity soon capture the attention of those at the castle, earning him the rare opportunity to study under a powerful new mentor.
However, the question remains: is Kunon's ultimate goal truly attainable?
