The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

Chapter 47

“It’s a bird that tried to harm you.”

Huh? Me? When? Don’t tell me he’s talking about when the bird showed displeasure at my arm?

“It’s always been like that!”

It’s a bit stupid and selfish, but it’s a good kid…

“Do you see that your clothes are burned?”

Only then did I notice my clothes. There were holes burned through them in several places.

“Ah…”

But it would be pitiful for it to disappear here.

Not only that, but my relationship with Jeok Yunha would also be ruined.

“Still! It’s a good kid!”

“You speak as if you know it well.”

“Of course I’m seeing it for the first time, but since Fire Ability users tend to be selfish, wouldn’t the divine beast also have a selfish personality?”

Brother Gyewon, who had quietly approached from the side, suddenly took his Thunder Beast and started petting it.

“…Did you hear that? Behave nicely.”

-Piiiiik!

“Good. You won’t have to worry about being hated.”

Is this really the time for such talk, Brother! What’s the Thunder Beast so excited about, chirping in response…

…This isn’t what’s important.

I barely managed to send the Fire Bird back.

“Nephew, your permit schedule is flexible, right? Let’s go outside today.”

I also looked at Cousin Brother, who was starting to hesitate.

“Nephew should come too.”

If we all leave our spots today, Hei Gyewon will be left alone in the Eastern Wing.

That wouldn’t be good.

‘This is the spirit of communal childcare!’

-I nodded while having thoughts quite inappropriate for a three-year-old.

* * *

“Hello, Physician.”

Jeok Yunha greeted me warmly. Her attitude was more friendly than last time.

“Have you been well for the past 3 days? You look much healthier. And your family… has grown?”

It was natural for her to be surprised seeing my state. A fox was poking just its head out from the bag I was carrying.

‘I couldn’t leave it at home.’

Leaving just Brother Gyewon and the Baby Fox behind would have been wrong too.

“Oh my, how cute~ But isn’t this a white fox? Where did you see such a precious item?”

“It’s a secret.”

Moreover, the Baby Fox would cry pitifully – kyae kyae aeng kaeng kaeng! – even if separated from me just a little bit.

‘That’s strange. They say foxes look like dogs but have cats inside.’

They say they’re that curious and touch everything they see.

So just in case, Dad wrapped it with wind. But for some reason, even when we came outside, it was well-behaved.

“Uncle Undeok and Tak Minjae?”

“Ah, they’ll be here soon. Minjae too.”

I was currently sitting on Dad’s lap.

Though not visible, the baby Poison Horn Snake Bam-bam was coiled around my wrist inside my sleeve.

‘I’ll have to give it a proper cool name when it grows up.’

I thought this as I turned my head. In front of me sat a Middle-aged Man with a bewildered expression.

“Sorry for a moment.”

“Oh, no, Physician…!”

“I’ll give you 3 days’ worth of medicine. If you leave it too long it’ll get infected, so make sure to wash it with clear alcohol or clean water.”

“Ah, yes, yes…!”

Who was this Middle-aged Man? A patient. And where was this? A small Pharmacy.

Jeok Yunha couldn’t hide her incredulous expression.

“…So now I want to ask.”

I was fulfilling my role as both Physician and Pharmacist for the first time in a while.

Jeok Yunha, who was standing beside me, held her head. With an incomprehensible expression.

“Why on earth are you here?”

The place Jeok Yunha called us to was a Quiet Building. On the first floor, someone who had received Jeok Yunha’s orders was waiting in advance.

I arrived earlier than the appointed time and told them in advance.

‘I’ll let you know the time and place. Please tell them to come this way.’

And then I turned around without regret.

The next place I arrived at was a small Pharmacy right next to the Building.

The Pharmacy Owner was a moderately materialistic person. He quickly lent me the space when I gave him money.

When I gave him more money, he quickly gathered patients from this area.

‘It’s been a while since I treated people at a Pharmacy.’

Until now, I had only treated Uncle, Little Uncle, Dad, and Tak Minjae.

News that not just any Physician, but a Physician with Nature Ability had appeared spread instantly in a short time.

Since I utilized the characteristics of the Market, it was natural that a line formed reminiscent of an opening rush.

‘Of course, I’m treating them at almost bargain prices, so how could they not come?’

The Pharmacy Owner was all smiles, getting to receive medicine fees and additional compensation.

By the way, when I told Brother Gyewon to go sightsee the Market for once, he said he was a Warrior and volunteered to be my assistant.

‘I was surprised at how unexpectedly capable he was…’

Perhaps because he was smart, he didn’t forget what I taught him once and quickly memorized frequently used Medicinal Materials.

Dad?

Dad was like a trophy, I guess.

He would hold me, and whenever some troublemaker tried to cause a scene, he’d summon the wind with a whoosh and chase them away.

‘What a troublemaker. Banishment it is.’

‘W-wait, kyaaaah!’

I clapped my hands.

Wow, those troublemakers who were so hard to get rid of when I worked alone…!

Now I finally get to experience what it’s like to have a capable warrior!

I suffered so much alone because of one bad rumor…

‘Dad, that was really too…’

‘Too harsh?’

‘No?! Too good! Keep chasing them away! Throw them out of the market. Make bumps on them too!’

‘…I’ll keep that in mind.’

In no time, rumors spread that there was a beautiful goblin here.

Jeok Yunha came 3 hours after that.

“Excuse me, I’m pretty sure I told you the time and place… Why are you here?”

She had a bewildered face, and her hair was quite disheveled. Apparently there had been an argument outside about not cutting in line.

I was dumbfounded.

“You… weren’t you a famous person in this market?”

“Me? Um, that’s right, but being too friendly is also a problem… no, that’s not it. Baby Physician, please answer me. Why are you doing this?”

I spoke while casually diagnosing the next person.

“Now, this isn’t scary. Please stay still.”

“Ugh, water, water…! Ooooh!”

I turned my gaze away from blankly watching the person trapped in water.

Information flowed endlessly into my mind, and my water stream was rummaging through the pharmacy as if it had been waiting.

The medicinal materials and supplies that the water dropped were quickly picked up by Hei Gyewon and Raon, who either shook off the moisture or organized them back in place.

‘Putting Cousin Brother aside, Raon… why are you so good at this?’

Is that really a fox?

Are foxes such clever animals? I’ve heard they’re cunning, but…

I tilted my head but was satisfied. Thanks to Bam-bam wrapped around my wrist, the grade of the medicine I made went up.

While diligently making medicine like this, I gave my attention to Jeok Yunha.

“Why am I doing this, you ask?”

“Yes.”

“To become famous.”

“Yes… what?”

My ability boasts increasingly fraudulent results as experience accumulates.

‘I’m practically becoming a medicine factory.’

Even now, making simple cold medicine takes less than 30 seconds. Plus, the effects are certain and amazing.

After all, it contains the life experience of three whole lifetimes.

I’m like a hidden master.

“It’s just a simple cold, so take this and get plenty of sleep. But this cold is highly contagious, so if you have children, sleep separately tonight.”

“Oh my, yes…! I do have a child. Thank you, truly thank you, P-Physician…?”

What all the patients have in common is that they can’t look at me properly, or they seem puzzled.

When they don’t understand, they glance at Dad.

‘They look at him as if Dad is the real deal.’

I held back my laughter and sent the patient away.

Before the next patient came in, I looked up at Dad.

“Dad, is it possible to make my voice reach only one person?”

When I signaled to Dad, my voice reached only Jeok Yunha.

“You must have investigated my background.”

This was my answer to Jeok Yunha’s question.

“Then you should know. The way I am now, I can’t even go to the Main Hall, let alone become a Family Head Candidate like the other kids of my generation.”
