The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius
Chapter 18
Even after doing all this, I didn’t expect the man to believe me right away.
‘Look at him still staring at me with those distrustful eyes.’
Thinking about it from the opposite perspective, if some random uncle suddenly appeared and said ‘I’m your dad,’ even I would say ‘What nonsense are you talking about?’
“You want me to believe something that can be manipulated?”
See? See?
‘It’s not like I’ve only been dealing with people who call pharmacists fraudsters for a year or two.’
I remained calm even in front of his distrustful face. I hadn’t expected to get full on the first spoonful anyway.
‘Is this as far as it goes?’
I stopped looking at the man and lowered my eyes.
“It’s not a lie though. Jogi, just go outside and you’ll know whether this method is real or not. Should I give you my blood?”
Would you like to go and try it yourself, Father?
“Just looking at how carelessly you treat your body, I suppose I could consider you my blood. Is that right?”
Oh, look at that sneer. Still, I have to say what needs to be said.
“I didn’t come here to talk about this. I came to treat Dad.”
I spoke clearly and distinctly.
“Dad’s illness, I’ll cure it for you!”
Cheap, cheap. Get treated by the continent’s greatest Genius Physician.
I came to treat you across three whole lifetimes, you know?
No interest, no fees.
Just provide the labor!
First, I needed to prove it.
I quickly opened the water container, put my hand in, and showed him how I healed my hand.
“It’s not a lie, right?!”
The man’s eyebrows moved slightly. The faint smile that appeared was closer to mockery.
“So you’re even using abilities now…”
Just as I thought he was muttering, he strode closer.
Oh shit, that startled me. The man brought his face close enough to mine that I could see his long eyelashes.
“You, try diagnosing me.”
Diagnosis? Suddenly?
‘I was planning to do it anyway though.’
Even though I had talked big, I thought there was no way he’d quietly offer his body.
So I thought today would be difficult. I don’t know what changed his mind, but… I won’t miss this opportunity.
I raised the water.
The water rippling like waves covered the man’s large, lean body just like that.
I’ve never treated the same disease that Dad has.
‘I have treated diseases with memory-related symptoms before, but would that help?’
Like Little Uncle and Uncle, I would only be able to know the medicine ingredients and formulas. It would be a long journey.
‘Good, now for the medicine ingredients…’
I froze in place.
No, no medicine ingredients or formulas came to mind at all.
This had only happened… twice before.
‘Usually this only happens when diagnosing dead people.’
Dead people cannot be treated.
Therefore, nothing comes to mind.
And I felt this sensation when I faced the only incurable disease I’d seen where I couldn’t find medicine.
‘I… can’t treat this person?’
The conclusion that clearly emerged in my mind.
I was so flustered by the sudden situation that I showed my expression plainly.
Oh no.
But it was already too late.
Dad lifted one corner of his lips. It was a nice smile, but it felt menacing.
“You can’t. See the answer, can you?”
I had plenty of experience treating incurable diseases. But this was only the second disease I couldn’t treat.
I opened my mouth at the undeniable fact.
“In the end, you’re just the same.”
I felt strange. I had seen this expression from both Uncle and Little Uncle.
But the magnitude of resignation was different.
“Now that you know there’s no answer, go back. I won’t blame you for falsely claiming to be my daughter.”
“That wasn’t a lie.”
I clenched my fists tightly.
“You saw the examination and still say that? Or don’t you remember this either? That’s why I showed you that I’m a Pharmacist and Physician!”
I abandoned my gentle attitude up until now and made a sulky expression.
“I’m your daughter. Why would I lie about something like this? What would be good about it.”
I pouted my lips.
“Do you think I came looking for you because I wanted to? I came because you’re my dad.”
I absolutely have to go to the Market.
There were far too many reasons why I had to go there at this time.
And the fastest and easiest way was to persuade this person.
‘I know you didn’t want to get sick.’
I let out a small sigh.
“You’re really my only dad. I hope someday you’ll definitely know that.”
I spoke with sincerity and then pointed to one place. I smiled shamelessly.
“Throw me over there.”
The place I pointed to was the pond.
“Who says I can’t treat it? You’re worse at making random assumptions than Uncle Poo and Uncle Baek.”
“…What are you scheming?”
“Why do you like scheming so much?”
Does it feed you?
Since it seemed like he wouldn’t throw me, I asked to be put down. Then he put me down more obediently than I expected.
“I don’t need any of this, so go back.”
I nodded in agreement and pretended to go back.
‘It’s a fake, Father!’
Then I suddenly turned around and ran hurriedly toward the pond.
Is it clean water? I don’t know, let me check first! Then I dipped my fingertips in and was surprised.
‘What? Why is it clean? I can use my ability?’
If it were an ordinary pond, this wouldn’t be possible.
The water is clean, too clean. It was a gamble I thought would fail.
But is this the time to think about such things? I didn’t hesitate and jumped into the pond.
“I’ll show you how outstanding I am!”
Splash!
When I slowly opened my eyes, I was underwater.
‘Wow, it’s been a while since I opened my eyes underwater.’
My weak body screamed as it couldn’t withstand the pressure. It was painful.
Damn, I didn’t want to do this again.
It was when I couldn’t hold my breath and was gulping down water.
Splash!
Just before I was about to spit out bubbles, I saw long hair swaying.
It’s Dad.
Dad looks handsome even when seen underwater. I had such a carefree thought.
When our eyes met, I wanted to smile, but.
Swoosh!
Being grabbed by the scruff of my neck and pulled up came first.
“Puha! Cough, cough cough!”
No, why does this dad like grabbing the scruff of my neck?
“What are you doing? Even though this looks like a shallow puddle, the depth is…”
“Thank you!”
It did look that way. I knew it would be taller than me, but it was much deeper than expected.
I smiled brightly while hanging there completely soaked.
“You’re not trash!”
“…”
“In the Bong Family, even when I was drowning, no one helped me.”
I was a genius without a guardian throughout my past life.
“You’re kind! Thank you for saving me!”
“So you jumped in on purpose after all.”
The man irritably swept his wet hair back.
Oh, he’s getting angry. Getting angry.
“There’s a reason!”
I glanced down below.
“Can’t you lower me down just a little and dip me in the water?”
“….”
The man looked annoyed.
Even so, as if he wanted to see just how far I’d take this, he obediently lowered me down and dipped me in.
…He’s dipping me like I’m some kind of sauce.
‘Well, it doesn’t matter if only my feet are dipped.’
Me and the patient submerged in clean water. With this, all conditions were met.
‘It’s been a while since I’ve used this.’
As I put strength into my toes, the pond’s surface rippled.
“This is….”
Light erupted from the entire body of water, and the water surged up, taking the shape of something that looked like a small bird or perhaps a small dragon.
I just call it a Winged Dragon.
“This is….”
Soon the pond that had risen like a tidal wave engulfed Dad and me.
Though we were trapped underwater, unlike before, I wasn’t suffocating.
Because this was my ability.
I reached out my hand toward Dad, who was looking at me with surprised eyes.
Then I smiled brightly.
‘Now, shall we begin the treatment?’
This isn’t something I do for just anyone.
My tiny hand touched Dad’s forehead. An enormous amount of information lined up in my mind.
‘This disease….’
I had once treated an incurable disease that I couldn’t find medicine for using this method, but on the other hand, it was something I absolutely avoided using unless necessary.
Because it was a completely different treatment method from Diagnosis.
‘I wonder what will happen since it’s been so long since I used this?’
Even I didn’t know what would emerge next, so I stared at the water.
Since the incurable disease I treated before was different from Dad’s illness, the treatment method would also be different from what I remembered.
‘I wonder if it will be treatment related to memories.’
Dad and I saw the same scene.
