The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

Chapter 152

“Ahaha. I agree. Would it be okay to just lightly singe his hair?”

Fire blazed up from Jeok Yunha’s hand. The flickering flames were no ordinary level.

“I happen to be terrible at fire control!”

I had to experience the strange situation of protecting that pig—no, Hei Daeui—from being sliced to pieces by the wind or turned into roasted pork.

Let’s just not kill him, people.

Dad had even gagged him and tied him up tightly before lifting him into the air, perhaps to make him easier to beat.

‘Whatever the case, we need to find out the truth first…’

Before we punish him or turn him into roasted pork, right?

“Dad, even if you’re going to beat him, how about establishing justification first? You too, Jeok Yunha.”

At that moment, a brief silence fell. Strangely, Dad and Jeok Yunha were making similarly odd expressions.

“…I’ve been thinking this for a long time, but Physician, you seem too indifferent to your own affairs.”

Jeok Yunha extinguished her fire obediently while grumbling slightly. It was grumbling that bordered on complaining.

“I agree.”

Ugh. When did I? Let’s first verify what Hei Daeui said, and if he’s still a bad guy, it won’t be too late then.

Is it really so wrong to suggest we have a reason before beating him?

I felt a bit wronged. But somehow the atmosphere seemed to be about more than just Hei Daeui’s story.

I quietly averted my gaze. Especially Dad’s gaze.

Well, anyway.

‘I was wondering what to do, but the pumpkin rolled right to my feet, didn’t it?’

I stared at Hei Daeui, who was still struggling after being subdued by Dad’s wind.

‘This guy definitely isn’t without ability.’

In the third round, he was a terrible Family Head, but he still had the minimum ability to reach that position.

He just wasn’t as great a mage as his mother, father, Uncle, or Uncle.

“You’re quite pitiful too.”

“…”

I looked down at Hei Daeui who had fallen to the floor and spoke indifferently.

“Being born with ambiguous talent.”

Hei Daeui’s eyes widened as if they would tear.

Then he immediately glared at me as if he would tear me apart with his gaze alone.

But sorry, I was being sincere.

‘Though there is a condition attached. Being born with ambiguous talent under a genius…’

First Aunt was someone who could be called a genius with poison. Even if she wasn’t suited to be Family Head, her medicine and diagnostic ability through poison were top-level.

How many tests and demands must her firstborn have received under her?

In the end, he was a son who couldn’t pass any of First Aunt’s standards. Hei Daeui would know that fact better than anyone.

First Aunt knows that she only wishes for her to live at a level that won’t interfere with her own path.

My mother’s resignation and disappointment, that is.

If she had been born into an ordinary family, or even just met an ordinary physician master, she wouldn’t have lived like this.

But once you’ve grown this much, you’re already ruined. He was someone who had been devoured by his inferiority complex and created countless victims.

‘He doesn’t know how terrifying karma can be.’

I looked down at him with indifference.

When such a bastard gets to live committing crimes freely, what sin did I commit to be repeating this life?

I shrugged my shoulders.

“What should we do about this?”

I glanced to the side.

When did he subdue them? Probably from when he struck down Hei Daeui, I suppose.

Anyway, the bodyguard who had come in with Hei Daeui was bound to the wall with wind and held in place.

“Hehe, should I just burn off his hair?”

When did she get over there? Jeok Yunha was playing around with flames in front of him. That elder sister really…

I shook my head from side to side.

“Take care of those people yourself. Hey, loosen his mouth a bit. Dad.”

“I don’t particularly recommend it though.”

Dad made a displeased expression but raised his index finger and drew a long line in the air.

At the same time.

“Puha! Damn it, damn it all! Damn!! You, do you think you’ll be safe after doing this to me?! Do you think our mother will just stand by?!”

Hei Daeui screamed in fury along with the breath he had been holding back.

His eyes were bloodshot from how much force he had exerted.

“Don’t be ridiculous. You’ll definitely build your skills through dishonest methods. You’re a witch! You’re a witch!”

“…It’s not that, you just want to believe I’m a witch.”

Just like all the people from past cycles who envied and cursed me.

I slightly lifted the corners of my lips.

“If you lack skill, then study. If you don’t have that either, at least have persistence or tenacity.”

“What…?”

“Your mother, First Aunt, is at least someone with tenacity. But you only have shit in your head.”

I gently provoked Hei Daeui’s inferiority complex. My cousin’s face flushed red.

“Didn’t you hear? I said you only have shit. What makes someone like you think you can save people? Just quit being a physician.”

“…You, you…!”

“The Hei Family doesn’t need a physician who’s ambiguous, incompetent, and full of inferiority complex like you.”

As if these words were the trigger, Hei Daeui thrashed his body and struggled.

Since he was subdued by wind and couldn’t move his body and hands properly, he thrust his face forward, trying to bite me somehow.

“You, I’ll definitely kill you. Think I can’t? You don’t know how many things you’re unaware of! I’ll kill… Keurgh!”

“See? Didn’t I say I don’t recommend it?”

Dad was quietly consumed with anger. I quietly stepped back.

“Yeah. It’s fine, so release him.”

Even if we release him, all he can do is run crying to his mother anyway.

Sure enough, as soon as I released him, instead of rushing at me, he was busy cowering. It was because Dad had stepped forward.

“If you have any complaints, step forward. I’ll be your opponent.”

“I, I’m a Physician…! Warriors can’t strike Physicians…”

“Those rules mean nothing to me.”

Hei Daeui clutched his cheek. It was the spot where Dad had hit him.

When I gave a signal, those who had been guarding Hei Daeui were also released. As expected, Hei Daeui tucked his tail and ran away.

Glancing back with a face pale with terror, wondering if we might chase after him.

I rubbed the back of my neck.

“Wow, it would be really convenient if there were only kids like that, right Dad?”

Just a moment ago, that bastard Hei Daeui had confessed everything himself, hadn’t he?

I grinned wickedly.

“It was recorded, right?”

Even if it wasn’t, how dare he threaten to kill me.

Does he still see me as the powerless, pathetic kid from 5 years ago?

‘That’s why he’s stuck in that position forever.’

Dad nodded while looking at me with a complicated expression.

‘It seems like this false rumor started from their side anyway.’

Rather, should I say I was waiting for this moment?

‘I was planning to make my move soon anyway.’

I made a promise with the Family Head 5 years ago.

‘Will 5 years be enough?’

‘Yes. That’s plenty.’

A promise to sweep them all away at once.

Now it was time to keep that promise.

“Wow, so cool. So cool that I’m about to cry.”

Jeok Yunha grabbed her tearless eyes and sobbed dramatically.

Past that Elder Sister making a fuss as always, my gaze settled on one place.

The outsider who had been treated as if he wasn’t there despite being present. The visitor from Wolfsbane.

I smiled brightly as if nothing had happened.

“Sorry you had to see such an unseemly display in front of a guest.”

“…”

“But this kind of thing happens in any family. Even in great families, for instance. Right? Please understand.”

This kind of thing happens in your family too, doesn’t it?

The Knight from Wolfsbane frowned to show his displeasure but said nothing.

“What will you do now?”

Was he curious about this? That was unexpected.

“What do you mean, what will I do?”

I shrugged my shoulders.

“I have to go treat patients, as a physician.”

I am a physician, after all.

“Jeok Yunha. Please guide me to the eye disease patients you said you secured.”

* * *

The next situation went as expected.

A few days later.

I heard that First Aunt was furious.

“So.”

“Y-yes?”

The attendant who brought me the news flinched and watched my expression. He looked completely terrified and cowering.

To be precise, he seemed scared not of me but of the men standing around me.

I looked around. Dad, Uncle, and Uncle were all gathered together for once. And there was even Ayan in Uncle’s arms.

“Th-that is, hiccup! H-Hei Haran said to come immediately…”

First Aunt had summoned me.

‘Should I comply or not.’

I just smiled but didn’t actually get up from my seat.

For the past few days, I had focused on examining and treating patients who were said to have eye disease.

The disease was exactly what I had expected it to be – the one I remembered. Meaning it would start as an eye disease and become a highly fatal illness.

Until now, they had at least been cautious and avoided the territory ruled by the Hei Family, but now they had spread the poison of disease even here.

I know why this is possible.

‘An enemy within.’

I also know that the person who summoned me finally couldn’t bear the anxiety and lifted her heavy bottom.

And she doesn’t know.

That I’ve been waiting for this moment.

I smiled brightly.

“Why should I go?”
