The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius
Chapter 121
‘Who are you?’
How does it feel when Dad, who you thought would be there until yesterday, disappears without a trace the next day?
If you asked me to describe it in one word.
I would say this.
It feels like there’s a hole in my chest.
But a person can live even with a hole in their chest. As long as there are no problems with the heart, lungs, brain, breathing, and blood flow.
I thought I could live without problems during the journey to the Imperial Palace, killing my emotions indifferently and emotionlessly.
…What a bad dad.
‘Always touching people and hurting them in strange places.’
My nose stung.
‘Be free like the wind. Unlike Narang.’
When Dad said this a moment ago. I almost pathetically reached out my hand.
Did you remember again? Really? How much did I recover? Then Narang…
Do you remember that night we slept together?
I almost asked.
Fortunately, Uncle, Uncle Poo, and Brother Gyewon appeared with good timing before I could show such an unseemly appearance.
‘What, why do you look like you’re about to cry? Did someone hit you?’
‘There’s only one person who could have hit her, right?’
‘…I didn’t hit her.’
I clung to Uncle’s embrace, and that was right now.
I could feel Dad staring at me intently, but I deliberately avoided his gaze and buried my face deep into Uncle’s shoulder.
“Wow, our Fairy, you’re so cute I want to gobble you up.”
Don’t call me that. Uncle seemed to hear my mumbling and I could feel him laughing.
‘Right. It’s not time to delay any longer.’
Whether they had properly changed clothes, Uncle Poo, Uncle, and even Brother Gyewon all had their black hair perfectly concealed.
And they were wearing hats that many people in this city commonly wore. Traditional hats, I suppose.
Their other casual clothes were similar to the attire of Western Continent mercenaries.
And Kay, Jeokyunha’s subordinate, had temporarily left after seeing Raon who suddenly appeared, saying ‘This child’s hair color needs to be covered too.’
Since we had told him we might leave first among ourselves, even if we departed, he would follow us well on his own.
“Uncle Poo.”
“Sook-poo.”
“Huh? What’s this. Now I can hit properly?”
I raised my head and explained the situation to Uncle.
From when I heard from Jeokyunha that Ayan was in danger, to exactly what kind of danger she was in.
And the story of how I coincidentally met the Divine Beast and found out where Ayan was.
“….”
As expected, Uncle looked like he had fallen into tremendous shock.
“Ayan, such a thing….”
Next came anger, then self-blame, resentment, hatred, regret and lamentation, and finally remorse….
Uncle rubbed his face.
When he raised his head again and stared at me, I could see his reddened eyes. I know this face.
Since I know Uncle’s effort to try not to cry, I should pretend not to notice.
“…Thank you for telling me. And, thank you for caring.”
Uncle smiled weakly, barely visible.
“This wasn’t the time to discuss whether to bring her back after my illness was cured. If it weren’t for you….”
“Raon, hit him! Body Slam!”
Kyeong!
Raon, who had returned to fox form after Kay disappeared and was nestled in my arms, immediately pounced on Uncle’s face without delay.
Oh, strike!
“Ugh, uugh! Paha! What are you doing!”
Uncle hurriedly pulled Raon off his face.
Kyaang!
Raon dangled from Uncle’s hand, caught by the scruff of the neck. I shrugged my shoulders.
“So what. It’s not your fault, so why are you digging a hole?”
“What?”
“Right. When you sent Ayan away, you had to send her then, it was better for that child. Did Uncle Poo know this would happen when you sent her?”
“….”
Predicting the future is the Regressor’s specialty, how could an ordinary person like Uncle have known?
“So now, just think about rescuing Ayan quickly. Are you going to leave Uncle Poo’s daughter like this?”
“…Of course not.”
“Good.”
I patted my chest proudly.
“Our very very precious fox who can even interpret the Divine Beast’s words! Who do you think brought him!”
Kyeong!
“That’s right, me!”
Kyeong kyeong!
Raon has good rhythm. I grinned widely.
“Just trust me!”
I’ll rescue our Female Lead magnificently. Ah, but the action will be Uncle and Uncle and… Dad?
* * *
The place where Ayan was staying was some distance from where we were.
“Jogi?”
Ppik! Ppik ppik! Ppik ppik ppik!
“…Over there. That’s the Den of Evil over there. Captain!”
I was dumbfounded by Raon’s translation, who had become human again halfway through.
Since when did I become the captain?
“Ho, even in the eyes of such a young Divine Beast, it seems visible who the Family Head is? What a very smart friend~”
“Hmph. It’s because it’s my daughter’s Divine Beast.”
Uncle, who said this, seemed tremendously surprised that Ayan had awakened as an ability user who even had a Divine Beast.
He was so focused on Ayan’s situation earlier that he couldn’t pay attention, but when he realized it later, he was incredibly shocked.
“Is there anything to look around for? Let’s go straight in.”
“That means let’s attack, right?”
I immediately objected to Dad’s words. Dad looked surprised for a moment, then nodded.
“Is there a reason to choose another method? The child’s father is here.”
Uncle brightened at Dad’s words.
“Well, what’s this? Second Brother is saying something right for once? I’m in favor. I’ll destroy that damn house completely.”
“Hmm. Brothers? Be quiet for a moment.”
Uncle restrained Uncle, who was about to step forward immediately.
“I understand your feelings, but let’s look at our position first. Hot-tempered youngest.”
“…Who’s hot-tempered. Ugh.”
The house where Ayan was staying was on the City Outskirts side, and fortunately there was a place to hide nearby, so we were currently concealed.
Uncle was staring at the house with a quite serious expression.
“Why is the security so tight?”
“That’s because my daughter…”
“Exactly. Your daughter here isn’t existing as ‘Hei Ayan’, right.”
“There seems to be a Guard Unit.”
When Uncle and Brother Gyewon’s words combined, Uncle closed his mouth.
“Perhaps they’re preparing for an attack, or maybe they even know who might attack and are prepared for it.”
“…”
“Then I wonder if they haven’t prepared for the situation after that?”
At those words, I recalled what Kay had said.
‘This City has strangely poor rumors and perception about Oriental Person.’
Kay said he didn’t know the reason either. But he said he would explain the situation when he returned.
“Can’t we just destroy everything, bring back my daughter, and run away? With Second Brother here too, it’s totally possible.”
“Think about how many more cities there were on the way here. If the Lord puts us on a wanted list as fugitives, even temporarily, the one who’ll be in trouble is our Ppiyak.”
“…”
“And there’s one more problem.”
A problem? I tilted my head, and instead of Uncle, Uncle, who had been chewing his lips, spoke.
“That guy Kay told us absolutely not to use Water Power or Lightning? He emphasized ‘absolutely’ so many times.”
I blinked my eyes and then hardened my expression seriously.
‘This also aligns with what Kay said.’
Water Power and Lightning power. Both are powers used only by Eastern People.
‘At least Wind Power is a universal and useful ability, so the perception that only Eastern Continent people use it is relatively weak.’
What on earth is happening here related to Oriental People?
If Kay had said that much, it seemed like it would be troublesome to move carelessly without him around.
While no one could easily open their mouth, Dad quietly raised his hand.
At first I thought he was raising his hand to speak…
“We need to rescue the child quickly, and we can’t cause a commotion with water and lightning.”
Come to think of it, there’s no way this man would do such a cute thing, right?
“Then this should work.”
Dad lightly swept his hand.
At the same time.
Whiiiing!
I thought I heard the sound of wind.
Kuuung! Bang!
The Wall of a house far away from us, on the completely opposite side, collapsed entirely.
The wind had cleanly cut through the Wall.
“Let’s say the Wall collapsed because it was flimsy.”
While I was opening my mouth in disbelief, I heard laughter from beside me.
It was Uncle who was holding me.
“That’s right, that’s right. Our Huya, even if you lost your memory, your head should still be sharp to be Brother’s younger brother.”
“What kind of nonsense…”
While Dad was getting fed up with the way Uncle addressed him, I heard the sound of footsteps rushing in a crowd.
“Over there, it’s over there!”
When I sneakily peeked, the personnel who had been guarding the main gate were running en masse to the opposite side.
‘This is our chance!’
It wasn’t just me who felt this way, as my body was suddenly lifted up.
When I came to my senses, I was being held in Dad’s arms. I just blinked in confusion.
“Split the group into two as planned. I’ll take the kids. The rest of you handle things on your own.”
That wasn’t all. In one of Dad’s arms was me. In his other arm was… Raon?
And on top of Dad’s head, Baby Sparrow had spread its wings wide as if it had become Captain, though I wondered when they had gotten so close.
Piiiiiik!
“…Charge, is what it’s saying?”
“…I don’t need to translate that far.”
