The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius
Chapter 219
“…tell them that.”
Of course, the story about my injury was a complete lie.
“Tell them I’m seriously wounded, in so much pain I’m on the verge of death.”
Since I had anticipated the Crown Prince would make such a move from the beginning, it would have been strange to be caught off guard.
Though I was a bit surprised.
The Imperial Special Forces’ skills were better than I had expected.
Currently, I was using my injury and recovery as an excuse to postpone the meeting for about four days.
The Crown Prince?
He naturally accepted it with delight.
He’s probably hoping I’ll die just like this.
‘Since the Special Forces members who carried out the assassination will confidently report that they successfully stabbed me.’
And it was true that someone had been stabbed.
It’s just that the person who got stabbed wasn’t me.
‘Though it wouldn’t have particularly mattered if it had been me.’
I had definitely thought something like this would happen even before we departed. I even considered that they might come at me with swords during the negotiation itself.
So I shared this possibility with Dad, Uncle, Little Uncle, the Chief Administrator, and even Raon.
Naturally, everyone was absolutely opposed. No matter if it was part of a strategy, how could it be acceptable for the Family Head to take a sword blow!
‘Don’t talk nonsense! You crazy Family Head! Don’t you think about the confusion the Warriors will feel?!’
‘Well… there’s a saying about deceiving your allies first to deceive your enemies, right?’
‘That’s not what that saying is for.’
‘Huh, Dad? I’m not saying I’ll actually get stabbed… what’s that rope for?’
‘If you really try to go through with it, I’ll tie you up tight and carry you around.’
‘…’
‘Hahaha, motion rejected.’
Even Raon, who usually agreed with everything I said, shook his head that day with tears welling up in his eyes.
‘Biyu… I’m against it too.’
Anyway, after being rejected due to fierce opposition, the alternative that came up was to disguise a Warrior with a similar build to mine as me.
The person who took on the role of my double was a Female Warrior completely devoted in her loyalty to me.
When they found such a perfect person for the job, I had nothing left to say.
Here’s one thing to consider: didn’t that Crown Prince bastard think that even if I got stabbed, the skilled Physicians of the Hei Family would treat me?
One might have such doubts.
But didn’t I say? The Crown Prince is the kind of guy who can really viciously torment people who fall out of his favor.
This world is vast, and sometimes there are poisons that will kill you if you don’t treat them within dozens of seconds of being affected.
Instant Death Poison.
Of course, I can treat this, but if I’m the one who gets hit, that’s a different story.
‘But even if I had been stabbed, it wouldn’t have been a problem at all.’
The Hei Family has two other geniuses besides me. Even if I had been hit, I had no doubt that Mother, one of the geniuses, would somehow help me.
Anyway, thanks to anticipating everything, the warrior who played my double was also safe. And naturally, nothing happened to me.
The Imperial Family’s forces, who knew nothing of this, were in a complete festive mood.
‘Those guys were drinking like crazy and making a huge fuss? What lunatics.’
I quietly shared the truth only with the leaders of the forces that came to help me, so the confusion wouldn’t grow.
Anyway, the Hei Family warriors who didn’t know the truth, and the members of other forces excluding their leaders, were like a house in mourning.
And exactly four days later, I walked out of the tent perfectly fine.
“Th, the Family Head of the Hei Family?”
And I appeared before the Crown Prince who was taking a walk. The guy who had been excitedly running around turned pale as if he’d seen a ghost.
“I greet Your Highness.”
Regardless of his reaction, I politely offered my greetings. Knowing that the more respectfully I acted here, the more furious he would become.
When our eyes met, my eyes narrowed into a smile.
The Crown Prince flinched.
His complexion turned red, then blue, drawing a complete yin-yang symbol, and the sight was quite amusing.
‘You must be quite shocked that a woman who should already be dead appeared before you?’
They said the Imperial Family’s side was confident that I had either died from the Instant Death Poison or become a living corpse at best.
So they must have been gleefully celebrating even during the postponed meetings.
“You, you…!”
As evidence of this, the sight of him losing his manners and pointing at me was quite satisfying.
He had an expression of realizing everything. Soon, with a bright red face, he turned around without even acknowledging my greeting.
The thundering footsteps told me how great his anger was.
But it was only laughable.
‘Yes, go back and show all your cards.’
Watching his retreating figure, I stretched long and wide. A feeling of satisfaction and relief.
It wasn’t over yet, but his reaction was so passionate that I felt excited too.
‘Look forward to the finale too, you damn bastard.’
Then I looked at the clouds.
“Oh, Dad. Look at that. The cloud looks like Raon.”
Amazingly, seeing a fox-shaped cloud made me smile brightly.
But Dad’s expression behind me was strange.
“…What’s wrong?”
“Lately, not a day goes by without you talking about that guy… No, never mind.”
I tilted my head in confusion.
While I blinked in confusion, only Mother floating in the air was holding her belly and laughing.
* * *
Crash!
The Crown Prince’s barracks was like sitting on a bed of thorns.
“What the hell happened here!!”
Thwack, thud, thwaaack!!
The sound of relentless beating echoed throughout. The one holding the club was a Special Forces member, and the one being beaten was also a member.
The one being beaten was also the Squad Leader who had been in charge of assassinating Hei Biyu.
The Special Forces Captain gritted her teeth. Even while inflicting sadistic violence on the subordinate who failed the mission, she didn’t feel at ease.
“You said she was dead, didn’t you say she was dead! Even if she wasn’t dead, she would have been half-dead!!”
Yes, that’s what they thought.
Their operation was perfect. No matter how skilled the Wind Mages of the Hei Family were.
The Wind Mage within the Special Forces also had tremendous ability and succeeded in infiltrating without detection.
Moreover, the Squad Leader said he had personally stabbed Hei Biyu. He was someone with proven skills.
The Special Forces Captain had a bitter taste in her mouth.
Since the Special Forces was the Empire’s premier elite unit, each member had tremendous pride as a Mage and Knight.
It wasn’t a place that resorted to this kind of purposeless violence even after failure.
‘A blow or two would be understandable.’
The Crown Prince couldn’t stand it anymore and approached, snatching the club from the Captain’s hand.
Thwack!
He struck the Squad Leader’s head directly. The Captain’s eyes widened in shock.
“Your Highness! If you hit the head like that…!”
She had been skillfully hitting non-fatal areas…!
“What.”
The Captain felt her breath stop as she met the Crown Prince’s eyes gleaming with madness. She quickly lowered her gaze.
“How dare you block my way?”
“…No, I’m not.”
The Captain quickly bowed her waist. The Crown Prince clicked his tongue and threw the club to the floor.
It was an irritable action full of bad temper.
“Everyone get out.”
“…”
“I said get out!!”
Even the Nobles who had come to discuss countermeasures suddenly filed out while reading the mood. They weren’t comfortable watching the violence either.
Especially the Nobles involved in the operation were busy rubbing their necks. Their turn could be next.
Left alone, the Crown Prince contorted his face as much as possible.
Bang! Bang! Bang bang bang bang bang!!
Unable to control his anger, the Crown Prince pounded the desk like a madman. His face and fists turned bright red as he panted heavily.
Originally, the negotiations should have been finished in just about three days.
But what’s the situation now? Already a week, no. It’s been delayed for nearly two weeks.
No, isn’t he being toyed with?
The Crown Prince’s vision turned red with shame and humiliation he had never experienced once in his life.
Others might not know, but he could tell.
Hei Biyu.
That pretty-faced woman, the entire time she looked at him.
…was mocking him.
“Ha.”
The Crown Prince clenched his fist. A drop of blood fell.
He wore a sinister smile.
Yes, if even assassination is useless, then regrettably, there’s no choice.
‘I didn’t want to use this method.’
There’s no choice but to use the final method?
He soon laughed like a madman. To use the last method, regrettably, quite a few of his own soldiers would be lost too.
But what of it?
People are overflowing.
All the Empire’s citizens are his possessions.
Being sacrificed for noble him, no, being used – how glorious it is!
The Crown Prince burst into mad laughter.
“Ha, let’s give it a try then.”
He would only present hell to that woman who hastens death. In this moment when hatred and rage toward Biyu surged to the top of his head.
The detestable illegitimate child that the Hei Family deliberately brought naturally came to mind. That Eastern Continent mongrel who dares call himself the Second Prince.
He grinned viciously, tearing his mouth.
“I’ll sprinkle my brother’s bone powder on your grave too.”
