The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

Chapter 19

‘Brother!! Big brother!’

Some scene reflected transparently in the water. A small beautiful boy appeared.

‘Ah, brotherrr! Just once, huh? Just once! Switch the outing order and let me go out, okay?’

Black hair tied up in a ponytail. Blue eyes.

It was Little Uncle, Hei Birang.

‘…I don’t want to. I have an important reason to go out. I can’t switch with you.’

And likewise, Dad appeared, looking young.

Wow, he was handsome even when young. Hei Birang was also a beautiful boy, but this one was on an incredible level.

‘Brother, you’re going to see that girl! Elder Brother told me, what was it… Ah! First love! Right? I know you’re trying to run away because you’re smitten.’

Dad hesitated for a moment, then smiled. Completely different from his current languid, detached, resigned expression.

It was a face as gentle as spring sunlight.

‘Does it show? That won’t do.’

The Dad before my eyes slowly closed his eyes. For some reason, he couldn’t open them again after closing them.

Even though the scene before my eyes was blurring and something new was appearing.

So he probably couldn’t see it.

‘What is this, is it related to the illness?’

As the scene changed, someone appeared.

Light purple hair.

Flowing long hair, slender silhouette, snow-white face. A clearly pregnant, rounded belly.

I blinked my eyes.

‘Me…? No, it’s not.’

It looked similar to my adult face but was much prettier. The beautiful woman looked at me and smiled.

Even though there was no way she could see me, it felt like she was staring at me.

The woman stroking her swollen belly smiled. As if she was incredibly happy.

‘I’d like the name to include “yu”.’

Ah, that person is…

I slowly closed my eyes as well.

It seemed like time was up.

When I opened my eyes, I could see Dad.

We were still completely soaked.

Drip. Drip.

Water droplets were falling.

Something had changed. There was shock written all over Dad’s expression. I grinned as if I had expected this.

“How was it? My treatment?”

My first ability is healing my own wounds. Any injury heals completely as long as it’s not fatal.

The second is being able to know the ingredients and formula for medicine after diagnosing someone.

If it’s a disease I’ve already treated, I can automatically make medicine using water as long as I have the ingredients.

…And the third ability I haven’t revealed to anyone.

Curing incurable diseases that have no medicine or creating improvement.

It’s truly an incredible ability.

‘It’s too dangerous an ability to reveal to anyone.’

Why don’t I use such a convenient ability often?

‘Because it’s an ability with too many restrictions.’

The patient and I must enter reasonably clean water together, and there’s a price to pay.

That price is my ‘lifespan’.

‘So there’s no way I can use it carelessly.’

When I first learned about this ability, I once glimpsed my lifespan.

It was a large tree made of water. When I think about the patient’s condition I want to save and how much I want to heal them, the leaves shake.

Even now, just before using this ability, I briefly looked at my lifespan.

And when I tried to completely cure Dad…

‘Almost all the leaves fell off.’

This was the first time this happened, so I was shocked.

Because it means I would die.

‘A complete cure is difficult with my power.’

So I compromised by showing just enough improvement to demonstrate my ability.

That’s why I asked if he remembered anything. Because there would be memories he had regained.

I saw them briefly too, didn’t I?

‘Well, seeing Mother’s face was something I hadn’t expected.’

We were still in the water, and I was dangling from Dad’s hand.

“What… what are you?”

Seeing Dad’s dazed expression was quite amusing.

Just moments ago he was acting like someone who had completely given up.

“Even among the outstanding ability users of the Hei Family… there was no one with this level of ability.”

It must have been quite a shock.

I brought my index finger to my lips and grinned mischievously.

“Shh, it’s a secret. A trade secret.”

Dad flinches.

It seems like he flinched the moment I took this posture, or am I mistaken?

“I proved my ability, didn’t I?”

“…What would you use proving it to me for?”

“Help me.”

I pointed to the West Wing Building.

“I want to go there. To the ‘Black’ Family’s Main House.”

I had already finished calculating what benefits I could gain by making this person my ally. And what price I would have to pay.

“I want to be recognized. I don’t want to grow up abandoned like this.”

“…”

I gave up on appealing to emotions long ago. Because no one listened to what I had to say.

“If you help me, I’ll heal you occasionally like today…”

I persuaded the man.

“It’s just because I’m still young right now. When I get bigger, I’ll be able to treat you much more.”

Sorry, Father. Please forgive this lie. But I’ll stake my name on completely curing you.

‘If I can really return home in this life.’

This body will no longer be needed.

Right before returning through the treasure. If I use all my remaining lifespan on Dad at that moment.

‘I can heal him.’

A disease with no medicine. I should be able to treat it this way at least.

I looked at Father with bright, sparkling eyes.

“Help me.”

Won’t this work?

It was when silence was flowing.

“…What’s your name?”

“Huh?”

“Your name.”

A voice that I couldn’t tell was affectionate or indifferent pierced my ears.

“You said daughter.”

Dad, who was soaking wet, stroked his own hair and gazed at me gently. It was an expression whose true feelings I couldn’t read.

“Biyu. I’m Black Biyu.”

You know what? My name.

You and Mom each contributed one character to make it. This was the only story about my parents that I ever heard.

But I.

I hope you don’t remember just this one thing.

Since we’re going to part ways anyway, that would be better.

Dad changed his posture. He grabbed me under both arms and lifted me up.

“…I feel like I’m possessed by a ghost. Such a young physician.”

His soaking wet face comes a little closer.

“I’ve met countless physicians and pharmacists in my lifetime, and numerous ability users from the family came to me with great confidence.”

“….”

“You’re the first to show improvement.”

My Dad is a character who died in the original story before the original Female Lead fully awakened her ability.

Perhaps if the Female Lead awakens her ability quickly, there might be ways to help even without me.

She’s also overpowered, after all.

I stared at Dad intently and suddenly spoke.

If it’s a disease where memories disappear day by day, perhaps there will come a day when he forgets what I said today too?

“And… I actually came from a different world. Just my soul.”

Though he showed temporary improvement, the symptoms will continue. He might forget today’s events by tomorrow.

If he’ll forget soon anyway, I can treat this person more comfortably.

So I casually threw out a story I didn’t need to tell.

“…Were you perhaps assigned here because you’re sick too?”

As expected, he didn’t seem to believe it at all.

That’s reasonable.

I just grinned broadly.

“I’m not crazy. My ability is real too! You saw it.”

I made an excuse that using this ability takes too much energy so I can’t use it often.

It wasn’t a lie.

Even now my vision was getting slightly blurry.

‘I have another reason to raise our Female Lead well.’

Raising ‘Hei Ayan’ well to attempt treating this person.

“Alright, I’ll help you.”

I grinned as I felt the approaching hand.

“I’ll grant what you want.”

Perfect.

And the moment the man’s hand touched my forehead, I had a strange illusion.

As if this hand was gently stroking me.

‘Geez, what an illusion I’m having…’

My young eyelids couldn’t overcome drowsiness and closed heavily.

Well, since I succeeded. I guess I can rest for a bit.
