The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius
Chapter 179
* * *
“So…. You understand, right?”
I earnestly explained to Mother. How I came to meet Raon and what kind of relationship we have now.
The explanation seemed to get through well.
– Yes, I understand.
Mother nodded with a sorrowful expression.
– Our daughter… in-laws would be difficult, right?
I shouted with a face that couldn’t laugh or cry.
“That’s not the problem!”
It was a bit absurd.
The image Mother had shown until now… was calm and gentle with charismatic presence. Wasn’t it impressive how she controlled Dad, Uncle, and especially Uncle?
But to see such a silly side like this.
Though bewildered, laughter leaked from my mouth. It seemed like Mother was showing this side because she felt comfortable.
Even though there had been a long separation between Mother and me, it felt like there wasn’t one now.
I felt both grateful and embarrassed.
Of course, I should correct the misunderstanding about Raon and my relationship.
Besides, thinking about it differently, it seemed like the Divine Priestess and the Divine Priestess’s clan were this important to Mother, which was a bit sad.
But also admirable.
Even so, Mother decided to stay here and care for Western Continent patients instead of returning to the Eastern Continent to fulfill the clan’s duties.
That seems amazing.
– Um, what should I call you. Lord Raon…?
Meanwhile, Mother was speaking to Raon. Raon, who had been hiding behind me, jumped out in surprise.
“Pl-please speak comfortably!
– Then Raon-ssi…?
“Mother, Raon is only two years older than me.”
– Hmm.
After a long back-and-forth, we decided to call him ‘Raon.’ Like treating a daughter’s friend.
Mother seemed burdened, but when Raon strongly wanted it, she seemed to have no choice but to agree.
But as if she had lingering regrets, Mother carefully asked.
– Raon, really nothing with our Biyu?
“Th-that’s!”
“Mother!”
I can’t live like this, really. I tried to block the way before Raon became more troubled.
But Raon’s words were faster.
“I, I think we need to hear Biyu’s answer…!”
At that unexpectedly bold response, I froze in place without realizing it.
And Mother.
– Oh my my my my my oh my my my my oh my!
“…Raon?”
– Oh my! Oh my! Oh my! My eyes weren’t so wrong after all.
“Mother, wait a moment…”
I pressed my temples firmly. I glanced at Raon, but he didn’t correct his words even as his cheeks turned a pretty shade of red.
I blinked my eyes.
– What aspect of our Biyu did you find most beautiful?
“Well…”
“Both of you, stop it, really!”
I shook my head vigorously.
A moment later.
We finally calmed down and continued the conversation we had intended to have. It was about the Divine Priestess and Raon’s Mother.
Raon hesitantly began to speak. Mother listened carefully to Raon’s story.
– Hmm, so that’s… um…
Mother only let out heavy sighs.
I, who had been listening alongside her, couldn’t say anything either.
I knew that Raon was the Emperor’s son and that there were circumstances involved. But unless Raon spoke about it, I hadn’t asked for specific details.
This was the first time I was hearing the detailed story too.
To summarize, it was like this.
“Mother… said she loved Father at first… the Emperor.”
Raon spoke hesitantly. His expression was dark.
Raon’s Mother, who had longed so much for the Western Continent that she secretly crossed over from the Eastern Continent, happened to meet the Emperor who was traveling incognito and fell in love.
However, she learned after falling in love that the Emperor didn’t love her… but loved the ‘specialness’ of her race, her clan.
And that he had tried to use her.
The Emperor had approached Mother from the beginning, knowing she was from a precious clan of the Eastern Continent.
But by this time, Raon had already been born.
The Emperor tried to use not only Raon’s Mother but Raon as well.
“Mother said the Emperor wanted the ‘Precious Thing’ that Mother’s clan could create…”
Precious Thing? A question arose here, but I listened quietly.
However, when I glanced at Mother because I felt something ominous, her expression was no joke.
A fierce expression, hardened beyond stiffness.
Well, it was a story about a member of a precious clan being toyed with by the Emperor…
I didn’t feel good about it either.
“Mother said that Elder Sister who came looking for her… that she met her but died because of her… Mother suffered until the day she passed away…”
The atmosphere became even heavier.
I could see Mother clenching her hands tightly.
“And while we were escaping together, she made only me escape and went back.”
This time I bit my lips tightly.
Heavy.
There were stories I knew and stories I didn’t know.
But how could I add my words? I was also worried that saying something unnecessary here might touch Raon’s wounds.
I could only dare to empathize since I too had felt sick and tired of being used.
“Biyu is my lifesaver. I want to… repay the favor.”
I turned my head at Raon’s deep inner feelings that suddenly reached my ears.
“Raon, what favor? I never thought of it that way. Don’t think like that…”
“And she’s also a precious person to me. Biyu is.”
Raon blushed pink on her cheeks and smiled bashfully.
I lost my words and stared blankly.
“If it weren’t for Biyu, I would have starved to death on those streets.”
Because Raon saying this looked so happy.
After finishing her words, Raon lifted her head. She held Mother in her clear eyes.
Somehow it felt like wind had gently blown. Even though my water was surrounding the area.
It wasn’t my imagination.
A gentle breeze was ruffling Raon’s soft hair. It looked mystical too.
“And Biyu’s Mother. The things Mother told me are coming back to me one by one. So I also know what kind of person Biyu’s Mother is.”
– So…?
Mother smiled, looking somewhat embarrassed but also happy on the other hand.
– Though I forgot my duty and didn’t return, hearing that makes me happy. Very much so.
“No. That’s why I think I know what I can do.”
– Hmm?
Raon took a step closer to Mother. Mother was slightly surprised.
“If it’s okay, could you pat my head? You can hold my hand too…”
– How can she be so cute and lovable.
Mother smiled gently and reached out her hand. Though I didn’t know why, she seemed to want to grant Raon’s request.
‘It will pass through translucently… what is Raon thinking?’
Hadn’t I seen Mother’s hand pass through me several times? It was a bitter thing for me.
Mother also seemed to be careful not to touch me after seeing my expression. That hurt a little too.
I thought this time would be the same.
But.
Pat.
The moment her hand touched Raon’s head. Mother was… touching Raon’s head!
“…!”
– …!!
Mother and I were surprised at the same time.
– The, the sensation…
Mother’s hand stroked and stroked Raon’s soft hair again. Mother also had an unbelieving expression.
“It seemed possible. Mother told me about it. The relationship between us and Biyu’s Mother’s Family.”
Raon suddenly turned to look at me. I was startled.
“And like this.”
Raon reached out and gently took my hand.
“If you hold hands with Biyu… Mother, now try touching Biyu.”
– …
Mother’s hand trembled slightly. Or maybe it was me who was trembling.
Mother bent down further and brought her hand to my cheek.
Touch.
It wasn’t human body temperature. It was a bit cooler and colder.
Even so.
I could feel it.
Tears welled up in my eyes.
“M-Mother…?”
– It’s real.
Mother was looking at me with a tearful face.
– I can really touch her. Our daughter.
At the same time, tears began falling from my eyes as well.
