The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius
Additional Side Story Episode 1
(※This episode takes place immediately after ‘Epilogue 2’.)
A grand wedding will be held!
This was the rumor that had spread throughout the Empire. However, no one found it surprising. That was because it had been almost a year since this rumor began spreading.
The current Emperor, who had been on the throne for one year, yet was showing competence and brilliant talent surpassing any other emperor.
Who that person was engaged to was something everyone would know, except for exaggerating a bit, newborn babies.
‘That would be me…’
I rested my arms on the windowsill, propped my chin up, and grinned.
Since I had been staying only in the Hei Family Territory, I only knew that Raon was governing well, but didn’t have many opportunities to truly feel it.
‘After all, our territory is where the Hei Family’s influence is strongest.’
But coming to the capital, I could tell. During the slow carriage ride, I could hear stories about Raon from everywhere around us.
‘This time His Majesty the Emperor…’
‘My goodness, that Lord who embezzled money…!!’
Of course, it wasn’t all good stories. However, there were overwhelmingly more good stories.
Enough to make even me feel proud.
Since we arrived after the festival had already begun, people’s faces were full of smiles.
‘Hehe, this time I’ve made up my mind to visit Raon myself.’
Actually, I had come to the Imperial Capital without telling Raon, so I thought he would be very surprised.
Of course, I couldn’t hide my identity all the way to the castle entrance, so I thought word would get to him.
But I never expected him to come running out barefoot, to exaggerate a bit…
‘Biyu!’
I was so shocked to see Raon running out without even putting on his outer clothes.
He even jumped down from the 5th floor. So from my perspective, he suddenly appeared from the sky.
I heard later through Sylvester, the prime minister, that he had rushed out in the middle of a meeting after hearing the news.
‘Thanks to that, our ministers must have felt His Majesty’s profound love and affection for the Family Head once again. They’d be idiots if they didn’t.’
While hearing about the situation made my face turn red, I also felt strangely proud.
Conversely, if Raon had suddenly visited the Hei Family unexpectedly, I think I would have rushed out too.
‘I don’t want to work…! I want to be with Biyu…’
Of course, what happened after that was a bit troublesome. Raon hugged me and made a tearful face, saying he didn’t want to work.
Of course, I wanted to spend time with Raon like that too.
If only Sylvester, who came running late, hadn’t been making gestures behind Raon asking to be saved.
So I somehow managed to persuade him well and sent back the dejected Raon, and later spent time with Raon who came after hurriedly finishing the meeting.
Several days had passed since then.
“Mmm… peaceful.”
Many things had happened over the past few days. No, it was more like there had been seismic changes in my life.
First, I made a wish using the treasure that grants wishes.
Specifically, to break the cycle of regression that had continued three times.
Honestly, I had never even wished for it, but since this life was so happy, I wished for it even less.
‘Instead, I’ll give my life as a wedding gift.’
‘He readily accepted that as a wedding gift.’
Wouldn’t that be a gift that only Raon in this world could give?
Of course, I used it.
The moment when the wish made to the treasure was granted was both special and a little anticlimactic.
It wasn’t granted immediately when I used the treasure. I experienced a special moment while returning to my room afterward.
‘Huh?’
‘Biyu, what’s wrong?’
‘Well…’
Strangely, along with a feeling as if something inside me had snapped, I had an instinctive sense.
I would no longer regress. It was an intense feeling, as if the sky itself was telling me.
That evening, I called Mother and Dad to my room and told them everything.
That I would no longer regress even if I died. When I said that my curse-like ability had disappeared, Mother and Dad were delighted.
‘Dad even wiped away tears…’
Then, perhaps feeling embarrassed, he hugged me and hurriedly left, so Mother had to mediate the situation.
– Bihu must be so happy. On the day you were born too… he cried like that.
In the past, I would have pouted at these words, but now I could even imagine that scene.
Anyway, our family had truly become happy and peaceful.
Except for just one thing.
‘Mother.’
That was Mother’s condition.
I know that Mother died. However, since she’s always by my side even in ghost form, it’s true that I gradually forget the truth.
At first, I thought about using the wish-granting treasure for Mother.
Since I no longer had to go home. Since this place was now my home.
But in the end, I couldn’t use the treasure to revive Mother because of Mother’s strong will.
When I confessed about the regression, Mother learned about the treasure through me, and said that if the day came to use that treasure, I should never use it for her.
She asked me to use it for myself, her daughter.
– I’m a mother who couldn’t do anything for you while alive… If you used the most precious treasure on me, Mother would be so tormented that I couldn’t even lift my head…
I accepted this not only because Mother spoke so firmly.
‘But also because I found a way to save Mother.’
How do you revive a dead person? Common sense would say it’s impossible.
Since I’m a physician, I know even better how absurd such talk is.
However, there’s one thing – we know that miraculous powers exist in this world. Like the water power I possess, for example.
Moreover, Mother was from the Eastern Continent, a hotbed of miracles.
‘I thought there might be a hint there.’
My prediction was right.
The hint was in the Eastern Continent.
And that method was…
“Biyu.”
Someone poked my cheek.
I smiled broadly without even looking. When I turned around, there stood Raon, who would soon become my husband.
As soon as Raon met my gaze, his eyes curved into crescents.
Her hair was disheveled from running so fast.
“Is the meeting over?”
“Yeah. I finished it quickly.”
I was laughing but then stopped short.
“…Again?”
“Yeah, again.”
“Are you okay?”
“Of course I’m okay.”
Raon stretched out his arms, grabbed me under my armpits, and lifted me up just like that.
Startled in the moment, I quickly wrapped my arms around Raon’s neck.
“I worked really, really hard before Biyu came, so… yeah, I’m fine.”
Raon buried his face in my neck and rubbed it gently. My face turned red without me realizing it.
‘Hmm…’
Ever since I arrived at the Imperial Capital, Raon’s physical affection seems to have… increased.
‘At first I thought I was imagining it, but I wasn’t.’
Of course, if you ask whether I dislike it, absolutely not.
I like it, I do like it.
It’s just a bit embarrassing, I suppose.
‘But we’re going to get married soon anyway, right?’
This visit to the Imperial Capital was meant to make Raon happy by having me visit him first for once, instead of him always coming directly to the Hei Family Estate.
But it was also for wedding preparations.
Raon and I would be satisfied just being together. But given the roles we each hold.
“Raon? Where are we going?”
This visit to the capital was a large group trip.
There was me, Mother and Dad, Uncle and Uncle. Ayan and Brother Gyewon, and even the Baekryong Trading Company members – Jeok Yunha, Uncle Undeok, and Minjae came along.
At first, Mother and Dad who used to follow me around everywhere, and Uncle and Uncle, started going out to enjoy the capital festival at some point.
The rest of the group did the same.
“I have something to show you.”
“Ah. But in this position?”
“Yeah. You’re not heavy at all.”
It’s nice of him to say I’m not heavy. But everyone’s staring as we pass by… Well, I guess it’s fine.
I decided to quietly cover my face.
Kyaa, I’m still not shameless enough in front of the blushing Imperial Capital maids.
Raon walked with long strides and finally arrived at a place.
It was a familiar location to me too.
‘This place is…’
It was exactly the place where the treasure that granted wishes used to be.
“There’s something here for you to see, Biyu.”
