The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

 

Chapter 148

 

I blinked my eyes.

 

“Oh, really…?”

 

Actually, I hadn’t heard what Raon said. It was because thoughts like ‘his eyelashes are really long’ had occupied my brain.

 

What a surprise.

 

Thanks to that, the old memories I didn’t particularly want to remember disappeared as well, so maybe it was a good thing.

 

I soon smiled brightly.

 

But this was only momentary as Raon’s body was suddenly pulled back.

 

“You two, what are you doing? Get away from each other.”

 

Brother Gyewon was pulling on Raon’s clothes with an incredulous expression.

 

“And you, follow me. How dare you try to stay next to my younger sister with such a weak mentality.”

 

“Huh, what?”

 

This time he didn’t seem scared, as Raon just blinked and was dragged away by Brother Gyewon. His ears and tail had already disappeared long ago.

 

“I’ll train you so that those ears and tail never pop out no matter when or where you’re surprised.”

 

“Oh…”

 

Wouldn’t that be quite useful? Raon had been struggling lately with his tail and ears suddenly popping up anywhere.

 

“And while we’re at it, let’s continue physical training too.”

 

“But today is supposed to be a rest day…!”

 

“Hey now, how dare you speak informally to your master.”

 

Brother Gyewon, who was taking Raon away, waved his hand carefully toward me. Then he pointed at Raon once and made a throat-slitting gesture.

 

‘You’re dead from today’s training.’

 

That seemed to be what it meant, but I wondered why he was telling me that. I stared blankly and then burst into laughter.

 

Even though he said that, I knew well that Brother Gyewon also cherished Raon like a younger brother.

 

Brother Gyewon was worrying about Raon in his own way.

 

“Take care, Raon.”

 

“I don’t want to go… Biyu…!”

 

Raon, who had a tearful expression like a separated family member, disappeared from sight. I stretched out fully.

 

Hiss hiss.

 

At the welcome sound, I turned my head to the side and saw a presence peeking out from among the medicinal herbs.

 

It was my divine beast, Bam-bam.

 

The baby snake that had grown with me for the past 5 years was slightly bigger than before and was wagging its tail gently.

 

‘I showed affection to a puppy recently, and now it keeps acting like a puppy…’

 

When I briefly adored a puppy someone had brought, Bam-bam seemed to have learned from it. I would have found it cute anyway though.

 

‘So adorable.’

 

Knowing I was about to go out, Bam-bam slipped into my sleeve.

 

Feeling the familiar coolness of the scales on my wrist, I stood up from my seat.

 

“Alright, I’ll go do some inspections.”

 

* * *

 

Over the past five years, there had been many changes in the Hei Family Estate.

 

To be precise, there had been dramatic changes in the abandoned ‘Eastern Wing.’

 

First of all, a clinic was built in the Eastern Wing. Naturally, it was a clinic I operated.

 

Excluding the building where Dad, Uncle, and Little Uncle resided, all the empty buildings were converted into clinics.

 

‘It was a major construction project.’

 

The Family Head gladly permitted the construction. Since I had accomplished great feats, the Aunts, Grandmother’s Disciples, and Retainers couldn’t openly oppose it.

 

‘Advanced Physicians of the Hei Family are required to have their own clinic buildings.’

 

Besides, what could they do when I was renovating the Eastern Wing that I had received as my land for my accomplishments?

 

When the Aunts couldn’t stop the clinic construction, they interfered in other ways.

 

‘Family Head, why are you providing all the funding? The Hei Family’s budget is not for one person alone.’

 

‘That’s right, Family Head…! This goes against fairness!’

 

They opposed providing financial support for the construction costs.

 

And that wasn’t a problem at all.

 

‘Can I invest?! Ah, since we’re on the same side, calling it investment is just talk—it’s volunteer work, volunteer work~’

 

Because Jeok Yunha stepped forward.

 

After returning from Rikel, I had expressed my gratitude to Jeok Yunha’s Subordinates and to her.

 

I had shared some information about future events with Jeok Yunha.

 

‘Eh, really? This Alcohol’s price will suddenly spike? No wait. And why will this Telescope Lens’s price go up?’

 

‘Yeah, that’s right. Gambon will suddenly buy large quantities of the Alcohol, and Belladonna’s, you know, that inventor’s Son and his group will suddenly feel the need for the Telescope Lens.’

 

Gambon and Belladonna. Both were among the Eight Families. Whenever they made moves, the Market always fluctuated.

 

Living as a wandering Physician meant being exposed to various information. It wasn’t difficult to recall items I had seen in the past.

 

Indeed, Jeok Yunha started making big Money in less than a year.

 

‘Kyaah, oh my… U-um, can I call you Elder Sister! Physician! Eek!’

 

‘…Hey, Niece. That Woman looks dangerous—is it okay to keep her around?’

 

‘I agree.’

 

Jeok Yunha said the strange phrase ‘If you’re smart, you’re all Elder Sisters!’ and called me Elder Sister for a while.

 

Though she quietly stopped after receiving glares from Dad and my Uncle.

 

Anyway, Jeok Yunha willingly offered me the Money she had earned.

 

So the construction proceeded without any problems at all. Though the Aunts were very displeased.

 

‘What can you do about it.’

 

And so, a clinic was built in the Eastern Wing.

 

The ‘Hei Biyu Physician’ clinic I had created in Black Forest Market was now also built in the Eastern Wing.

 

‘Did you hear that news? They say a clinic was built inside the Hei Family Estate to treat people like us… And the person there is supposedly that Genius Physician who was at the market.’

 

‘No way, is that really true?!’

 

I had firmly established from the beginning that I would treat Territory Residents. And I kept the door connecting the outside and Eastern Wing wide open.

 

It was originally an existing door, but it had been blocked when Dad, Uncle, and Uncle were confined.

 

Unlike other Advanced Physicians, I made no distinction between Territory Residents and Nobles when it came to treatment.

 

‘Anyway, once word spreads that my skills are good, even Nobles will line up.’

 

They’re the ones who need it after all.

 

The plan utilizing my 3rd round wandering physician experience worked out perfectly.

 

After about a year, rumors spread. Not only were Patients from other territories coming to visit. Nobles also began knocking on my door one by one.

 

The other Physicians and Third Aunt who had been petitioning the Family Head that I was making the family chaotic and disrupting discipline also shut their mouths.

 

I had to give a certain percentage of the money I earned as a physician to the Hei Family Estate. And that amount was not insignificant money.

 

‘It’s really easy to squeeze money out of rich people.’

 

Moreover, as long as Jeok Yunha was around, there were endless ways to make money even beyond just treatment and pharmacy.

 

And now, 5 years later.

 

My clinic had become famous enough that people would come even from the distant Capital.

 

Of course, unchanged from the beginning, I kept the Eastern Wing that had become my territory open as a place that even poor people could use.

 

Thanks to this, trust and popularity regarding me in the Hei Family Territory was very high.

 

Unlike in previous lives, there were no people yet who looked down on me for being young or mocked me as a witch.

 

‘So things could change like this.’

 

Every time I saw what I had created, it felt amazing. Because it was something I couldn’t even dream of in previous rounds.

 

“Uaah, uaah! Uaaaah!”

 

“The sound is too quiet, you bastards.”

 

I stopped walking mid-step.

 

Where my gaze was directed, there was a huge Training Ground.

 

When construction began 5 years ago, it wasn’t just a huge clinic that was built in this place.

 

‘Hey, build me a Training Ground.’

 

‘Haha, then Uncle, make me a space where I can use Lightning freely~’

 

‘I’m fine, no. Please make me a warehouse.’

 

These Patients. No, these shameless people had made such demands of me. Of course, I didn’t really think they were shameless.

 

‘Uncle wanted his illness to improve quickly so he could see his Divine Beast, so he’d need a space to use Lightning. Uncle wants to train, I suppose. Why does Dad need a warehouse?’

 

Later, when I saw the warehouse filled with throwing knives, I quietly looked away.

 

‘Please don’t let Dad have to use his former Assassination King title…’

 

Anyway, in Uncle’s case, he gathered Warriors and trained them on his own. It was an amazing thing.

 

When Uncle joined in too. Perhaps because they had their glory days, former colleagues and Subordinates gathered.

 

‘Perfect for subduing unruly patients.’

 

Thanks to that, it had become a safe clinic, so it was a good thing.

 

In the distance, the warriors were in the middle of training. Uncle was annoyingly sprawled out leisurely at the very front, only moving his mouth.

 

Uncle looked happy as he shouted at the warriors while chuckling.

 

‘He looks happier than in the Original Work.’

 

Well, he would have been suffering quite a bit at this time originally…

 

As I was turning around to go to the clinic, I heard small footsteps – tap tap tap.

 

Chirp chirp chirp!

 

Followed by the sound of a small bird crying.

 

“Elder Sister!!”

 

A pretty child called out to me with completely garbled pronunciation from running so hard.

 

The child who blocked my path was breathing heavily.

 

“Elder Sister, Elder Sister!!”

 

Whoosh! The child who hugged me rubbed her head vigorously against me.

 

Her prettily tied-up bun swayed gently. I smiled broadly at the warm body temperature.

 

“Ayan.”

 

It was our cute and pretty Female Lead who had turned 7 years old this year.

 

Looking at me, her mouth opened into a heart shape. It was a face beaming with joy.

 

“Elder Sister! Ayan made medicine!”

 

“Huh?”

 

“Ayan treated everything!”

 

And the point I realized.

 

…Currently, there was one more genius in this clinic.

 

‘…Even though I taught her, it’s frightening.’

 

That would be our Female Lead.
