The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius
Chapter 24
“….”
“I’ll handle things here somehow, Brother.”
Squeeeak!!
The Thunder Beast cried out loudly. As if it too would follow Brother Gyewon and help.
‘…How grateful.’
I could hear Hei Daeui urging the Warriors.
“Hey, what are you doing? Get rid of them right now!”
The Warriors exchanged glances with each other.
“We receive your orders.”
One Warrior stepped forward.
“Well, it’s not a difficult task either… I’ll finish this quickly.”
The man who had been walking lazily suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of Hei Gyewon.
Clang!
“…Gasp!”
I froze in shock.
However, surprisingly, Hei Gyewon blocked the first strike, and not stopping there, deflected the Warrior’s sword.
Admiration crossed the Warrior’s face.
“Oh my. What impressive skill. As expected of the son of the Hei Family’s Hei Biwon.”
“….”
“I was briefly under Biwon’s command, but I have no regrets.”
Coldness flashed in his ruthless eyes.
Hei Gyewon stepped back and twisted up the corner of his mouth.
“Who said I’d go down easily?”
Rumble!
Weak Static Electricity crackled through the dry air. A fairly thick Lightning bolt struck down.
Crash!
The Warrior who had stepped back showed a surprised expression.
“…Divine Beast? Lightning Strike?”
The spot where he had been standing was charred black.
Caution crossed the Warrior’s face. The Warrior gritted his teeth.
“An Ability inherited through bloodline, how utterly unfair for fellow Eastern Region people.”
The Warrior’s sword, which had been full of leisure, changed. I could see Hei Gyewon gritting his teeth.
Squeeeak!
“What are you doing, go now!”
A wound appeared on Brother’s cheek. Instead of listening to Hei Gyewon’s words, he slightly turned his head.
‘Even if I wanted to go…’
That toad bastard brought another warrior with him, you know? Plus there’s Hei Daeui and his companions too.
Among them, Hei Daeui had an excited expression when Hei Gyewon was struggling.
“Well, what are you going to do? This time will be different, you damn brat.”
I endured my anger and glared coldly at Hei Daeui.
“Hey, don’t you know the family rule that warriors can’t attack physicians and pharmacists?”
“So what? It’s fine if nobody knows.”
Ah, so that’s how you’re going to play it? I narrowed my eyes into crescents.
Laughing instead of getting angry when pissed off was a habit I developed from my third life.
Because I learned that this made the opponent feel more like shit.
Look at that. That twitching face.
“Oh my, how unfortunate.”
“What?”
I spoke calmly.
“Your head is as bad as mine, so you must be ready to get it even worse this time, right?”
When I pretended to put my hand in my bag, Hei Daeui flinched.
Instead of the bag, I grabbed my water bottle.
Just before, I had loosely closed the lid because I was going to drink, and that paid off. I grabbed the water bottle and poured it onto my hand.
“What, what are you doing! Stop him from doing anything stupid! That kid’s an ability user too!”
“…I’ll do as ordered!”
It was already too late, you damn bastards!
After the water thoroughly touched my hand, the water rose like a wave and covered the warrior who had rushed at me.
“Ugh, uaaahhh!”
“What, what is this?!”
“A wave!”
Not only that, but Hei Daeui and his companions were also covered by the giant wave.
“Haa, haa…”
My ability isn’t an offensive type.
However… I could at least hold their feet in place.
I panted while grinning wickedly.
‘Diagnosing this many people at once is still too much of a strain…’
Was it when I was twenty in a previous life? During my prime, I could diagnose dozens of people at once without any problem.
I felt satisfaction seeing the warrior trapped in water looking at me with panicked eyes.
The warrior swung his sword this way and that, but couldn’t cut through the water.
Diagnostic information automatically floated up in my mind.
“Whew, mister. If you’re not careful, you’ll get a stroke, you know?”
I glanced at the warrior’s ankle.
“And that ankle has been broken twice, hasn’t it? You should treasure it. If it breaks again, that’ll be the last time.”
“…”
I turned my head.
Hei Daeui was shouting something like “Grrr, grrr, quack quack!” But I had deliberately made it so his voice wouldn’t reach me.
I raised my middle finger toward him. Then I smiled brightly.
“You’re a childhood obesity case, you bastard.”
Well, now I’ve tied him up.
What should I do?
I can’t keep him restrained for long.
First I’ll help Brother, then we can escape together…
“Hei Biyu!”
I quickly turned my head. Then I looked toward Hei Gyewon and opened my eyes wide.
“Brother!!”
* * *
A gentle breeze blew.
For a long time, the wind had been his friend and the only presence that remained by his side to share his loneliness.
When he lost his memories. When he lost them again.
Even when he felt he had lost so much that nothing seemed to remain.
…Perhaps it had been with him before he lost his memories, and even in his very early childhood before that.
Hei Bihu.
He was currently sitting on the roof eaves.
For him who could control the wind, tall trees and rooftops were as stable as home.
‘…Where is your dwelling?’
‘Uncle is a crazy person!’
Two days ago, when asked where his dwelling was, the little one who claimed to be his daughter had grumbled and said this.
Hei Bihu both believed and didn’t believe what Biyu claimed.
Actually, either way didn’t matter to him.
The sensation of memories coming back to life was ecstatic. He couldn’t help but listen to everything that little one said.
For him, wind riding and climbing to high places were as easy as breathing.
‘A young baby like me will die! Die!’
‘I didn’t make it so you couldn’t breathe.’
‘So noisy. You really need to be scolded! You have even less common sense than Brother, common sense!’
‘…’
That’s why he didn’t know how others, especially young children, would feel.
Perhaps it was something he once knew but had forgotten.
Being scolded by a three-year-old for having less common sense than his brother was quite a unique feeling.
Hei Bihu leisurely rested his chin on his raised knees and gazed down below.
Where he was located was on the building rooftop near where his brother, Hei Bihu, was staying.
Below, Hei Biyu and a fairly large boy could be seen.
Since some of his childhood memories had returned, he recognized his niece.
Her face was so similar to his brother Hei Biwon’s childhood that he couldn’t mistake her.
Long hair fluttered in the wind.
Soon after, he felt a presence beside him.
“Did you come to watch?”
When Hei Bihu slowly turned his head, he saw curly hair fluttering.
It was his brother, Hei Biwon.
“Oh my, should I say ‘pleased to meet you’? Lord Hei Bihu. It’s an honor to see your noble countenance~”
“Pointless words.”
Hei Bihu replied without any change in expression.
“Brother.”
For an instant, Hei Biwon’s eyes widened. But only briefly, before being covered by a sly smile.
“Don’t test people and just say what you have to say.”
Clearly, when he last saw him, his second younger brother didn’t remember him. The youngest, Hei Birang, had also treated him like a stranger.
There could only be one reason.
The child who gave miraculous gifts to both him and Birang.
Hei Biyu.
“Could it be that my brother came because he’s worried about his daughter?”
“….”
Hei Biwon sat down beside him with a grin, plopping down heavily. The old roof tile made an uneasy creaking sound.
“What to do, she’s my daughter. I even gave her a name~”
“Ah, so she was brother’s daughter?”
“….”
So it was a lie after all.
The wind blew with a whoosh. Soon the wind gathered somewhere and spun around like a whirlwind.
Mysteriously, a voice flowed out from within the wind.
【Could it be that you came because you’re worried about your daughter?】
It was Hei Biwon’s voice from just moments ago.
Recording voices using the wind. For wind ability users like Hei Bihu, it was as easy as breathing.
“I’m just returning it as is.”
As Hei Bihu spoke indifferently, Hei Biwon’s sly smile deepened.
“Oh dear, little brother. You really are a useless child.”
Hei Bihu felt a slight pain. His brother Hei Biwon was pressing down firmly on the back of his hand.
Was that all?
Crackle. A weak electric current shocked the back of his hand.
There was once a time when he wondered if taking that electricity head-on might revive his memories from the shock.
The memories that Hei Biyu had returned were quite substantial in quantity.
He was grabbed by the collar by his older brother. His older brother Hei Biwon still had that same cheerfully smiling face.
“Instead of remembering your useless brother’s face, you should remember your daughter.”
“….”
“It’s pitiful and regrettable, but my younger brother who has become the worst kind of father in the world.”
