The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

Chapter 48

Collective punishment was applied to me, Hei Gyewon, and the Female Lead Hei Ayan.

In the original story, the Female Lead had to endure various injustices simply because her father was exiled to the Eastern Wing.

In the case of direct line children like Hei Daeui, who are treasured and raised by the family, they receive high-quality education from childhood.

Once they reach a certain level, they examine and diagnose patients carefully selected by the Hei Family.

They build their skills by easily accessing formulation techniques taught by senior physicians and pharmacists.

Of course, that’s impossible for me.

“Then what can I do? I’ll have to survive on my own.”

Of course, I don’t need any learning.

“I’m gaining experience.”

“…It doesn’t really look like you’re gaining experience though?”

Jeok Yunha pointed to herself.

“I may look like this, but I’ve seen many ability users – independent physicians, imperial pharmacists, and such. I’ve never seen anyone make medicine as fast as you, Baby Physician.”

Jeok Yunha stepped closer but was pushed back by the wind.

“Maintain distance.”

“…Geez, really. Father over there, I’m not trying to cause harm, you know?”

“Then speak from there.”

“Um, Biyu. Father looks like he’s going to kill me? What if he uses his old skills on me?”

“It’s fine. He won’t bite.”

“…What?”

I shrugged my shoulders.

Anyone would be startled if you approach like that, sister. It would be even worse if fire started.

‘Dad seems to view her even more unfavorably because of Jeok Yunha’s Divine Beast…’

I’ll tell her about this later.

But what exactly did Dad do in the past?

He couldn’t have been just an ordinary warrior.

I can roughly guess, but I don’t know the truth.

I’ll have to probe Uncle about this later.

“The Hei Family probably won’t give me any opportunities either.”

I calmly turned my head. Even before the diagnosis was finished, the water was moving rapidly and continuously.

What had happened until I could move like this…

I’d been beaten by patients while begging them to let me treat them just once.

I’d almost been stabbed with a sword when they questioned if my medicine was wrong…

“So, I have to create opportunities myself.”

“…”

After handing the medicine to the patient, I turned my gaze.

“You’ll make me famous, right?”

“…Me?”

“Yeah, you can do that, can’t you.”

I didn’t choose the pharmacy next to Jeok Yunha’s building for no reason. I smiled brightly and innocently.

“The first favor goes like that.”

* * *

Five hours.

Since morning, this baby physician and pharmacist had seen over twenty patients.

Five people per hour. One person every 12 minutes.

Even this was finishing from diagnosis to medicine creation in an unbelievable time, excluding the time for coming and going.

And that wasn’t all? The effects for those who took the medicine were also fast.

Even bleeding or simple injuries healed right on the spot, so the efficacy couldn’t help but spread by word of mouth.

‘A genius, a genius has appeared!’

‘Such a precious ability user physician!’

At the same time, a common question arose in people’s minds.

‘Why… is she so young?’

Was that all?

‘Why? Why is she doing this in such a shabby place?’

Biyu’s judgment was correct. There was no better method for the child to become famous.

In less than half a day, rumors had spread throughout all the markets.

Jeok Yunha heard news that the child had come to this market 3 hours early and started doing strange things.

‘I thought I heard wrong! What ability user physician would do such crazy things?’

She came at the appointed time but couldn’t believe it, so she wasted 2 hours watching.

And now, 5 hours had passed just like that.

The baby physician’s special treatment session ended like this.

She had felt it from when she cleanly cured Tak Minjae’s illness that all physicians and healing ability users had shaken their heads at…

‘The first favor goes like that.’

Jeok Yunha swallowed her breath. After a long time, her spine tingled, and tension dominated her.

How could she devour the big shot before her eyes?

She was fire.

Fire that wanted to greedily devour everything. I want to have her. Amazing. How could such an interesting existence exist?

I need to get her while she’s young. Let’s protect and raise her. And for our trading company…

Wind blew threateningly with a whoosh.

“Keep your distance.”

It was a low voice, but the warning was sufficient. Blood flowed faintly on Jeok Yunha’s cheek.

Thanks to that, she came to her senses.

‘Tsk. Did she zone out again?’

These damn fire users, this is their problem.

Since he himself was also an inevitably unstable fire user, his eyes nearly rolled back once more.

But this was worth obsessing over.

Shining so brightly like this… where else could you find such an amazing existence?

‘Though there is something terrifying attached to her side.’

He wasn’t sure if that man would remember, but Jeok Yunha and Hei Bihu had been active during the same period in the past.

During the days when they would take on dirty money without hesitation and act as fixers.

He had accepted a bodyguard request, but it was the day the Client died before he could do anything.

At that time, she was standing in the Medicine Merchant’s Room stained with Blood.

‘…Brother, I’ll surrender. Just spare my life?’

‘…’

Those red eyes he faced back then were still vivid.

‘His aura is all messed up, and those cloudy, dazed eyes.’

He seemed like a completely different person. What on earth had happened?

Not many people knew, but Hei Bihu, who once caused a stir in This City, had abandoned everything and run away with a Commoner Woman.

After that, for some reason he returned to This City alone, and she heard he went missing just like that.

‘Where did this Daughter who doesn’t resemble him at all suddenly pop out from, and why is that Daughter also a genius of the century?’

They were definitely a mysterious father-daughter pair.

She wanted to devour them both!

Jeok Yunha made a friendly face as if she had never shown any obsession.

“Haha, if that’s the first way to repay the favor, are there second and third ways too?”

“Don’t tell me you were trying to settle everything with just spreading rumors?”

At Biyu’s surprised expression with wide eyes, Jeok Yunha laughed awkwardly.

“Of course not.”

The fact that the Baby Physician had treated Tak Minjae with her genius Ability was actually worth giving all of Jeok Yunha’s fortune.

Because she had saved her family.

“Second, third… let’s not count like that, shall we? I’ll just give you a clean Blank Check.”

And Jeok Yunha knew hunting well. If you want to catch a big fish, you need patience and sufficient bait.

“Is there anything else you want?”

Then the Baby Physician smiled lovingly with her eyes folded in half.

Just looking at her face, she would be perfect for taking a Portrait for some children’s clothing advertisement.

Should she try to recruit her later? Try a new business?

She admitted it. She was momentarily distracted by her beauty.

“You won’t regret saying that?”

So she didn’t know. What kind of… miser was behind this lovely face?

* * *

“Thank you, thank you…!”

We returned the borrowed pharmacy and came to the originally promised location.

Not long after, Uncle Undeok and Tak Minjae entered. Uncle Undeok bowed deeply while sobbing.

‘…I expected this though.’

I scratched my cheek. I wasn’t used to it.

In the 3rd round, I became the Empire’s greatest physician and pharmacist.

But all the fame that accumulated on my back was nothing but infamy.

‘A woman who seduces and kills warriors, a woman who destroyed families… Things like that.’

So I hadn’t seen many people who were this moved.

Unless they were people who would get moved but then remember my infamy and run away.

‘Frames and images are truly scary things.’

Though I experienced such failures, this time will be different.

“Thank…you.”

Tak Minjae, who entered with legs that had recovered unlike three days ago, knelt beside his dad and dropped tears like orbs.

However, unlike Uncle Undeok, he quickly wiped them away and faced me with composure.

‘Wow…. Looking at him like this, he really is an amazing beautiful boy?’

When he was sick, his eyes were sunken and his complexion was poor, so it was less noticeable.

Then, Brother Gyewon quietly placed his hand on my shoulder.

“Biyu, what are you looking at so intently?”

“Huh? Oh… That kid. Because he’s handsome.”

I just answered without thinking.

“Ugh, what are you doing. I can’t see ahead!!”

“Don’t look.”

“Huh?”

“You’re still too young. No way. A little kid already being so flighty!”

“What?”

What are you talking about, seriously.

“Do you know how many years apart he and I are? And it’s not like that anyway?!”

I’m three years old, you brother!
