The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

Chapter 5

This wasn’t the first time he’d experienced such a sensation.

The Eastern people who served the heavens could use various abilities derived from nature.

In the Hei Family, water and Wind Ability users were often born.

He had seen both types, and recently had even seen a family pharmacist who used wind.

‘This little brat has abilities?’

It was an ability that the renowned physicians and pharmacists of the Hei Family all possessed. It wasn’t unfamiliar.

‘But this is somewhat… different.’

Hei Birang blinked his eyes.

“You… little one.”

“Ah, don’t talk. You shouldn’t do this, right? Uncle was once a great person.”

Before falling ill, he had been one of the top warriors in the Hei Family.

It was a glorious position where he had even protected the backs of the family’s great physicians and the family head.

“I’m doing a diagnosis now. Stay still.”

It should have been time to ask what nonsense this was again.

But Hei Birang couldn’t continue speaking.

His gaze was directed toward the thin wrist. Red marks in the exact shape of a hand.

He remembered grabbing it as soon as he had opened his eyes earlier.

That force was definitely not pain that a child of barely three years old could endure.

‘I definitely didn’t control my strength, did I?’

The child.

…hadn’t even screamed.

* * *

‘Wow, this is terrible. Just terrible.’

I clicked my tongue as I watched the diagnosis that was slowly beginning to emerge.

My first ability was to heal myself when I touched water.

And my second ability was…

The ability to diagnose others and make medicine.

For illnesses I had already treated, I could make medicine on the spot as long as I had the ingredients.

This was the ability I used in the test earlier.

What to focus on here is when it’s an unknown illness. In such cases, after ‘diagnosing’ the patient, I could learn the necessary medicine ingredients and combinations.

And once I had made a medicine, I could create it very easily and quickly through water as long as I had the ingredients.

This ability had made me the Empire’s greatest physician and pharmacist in my third life.

Most importantly, through my previous three lives, I had built up a massive database. I had been through every possible experience as a physician and had been thoroughly tested.

In other words, as long as I have the ingredients, I can make medicine on the spot to treat most diseases.

‘Thanks to all that rolling around and struggling.’

But this uncle was different.

‘No wonder they called it an incurable disease and a curse in the original story…’

I opened my mouth.

‘Wow, there are so many medicines I need to make…’

When I diagnose, I can tell how many stages of medicine need to be administered.

For example, one epidemic that was prevalent in the 3rd round required 3 stages – three medicines taken in sequence for a cure.

But this uncle’s disease…

‘Wow, that’s a number I’ve never seen before.’

More medicines than someone with a terminal illness.

Let me see.

‘Still, the starting medicine seems a bit easier. The ingredients are easier too.’

I turned off my ability.

‘Still… given time and ingredients, I can find a perfect cure.’

In the 1st and 2nd rounds, I wasn’t given time to properly understand and use my ability.

In the 3rd round, I maximized my ability but died because I was alone.

‘I won’t let that happen this time.’

I’ll select capable patients to treat. I’ll give them happy lives and gain the strength to return home.

Hei Birang, whose forehead is soaked with sweat, is blinking his eyes.

His niece suddenly demonstrated her ability to him, so it’s understandable that he’d be surprised.

‘It would be nice if he became my ally right away.’

That won’t happen.

Hei Birang, the Protagonist’s father in the original story, is extremely picky about people. Unlike the Beautiful Prince’s handsome face, he was a very twisted person.

“What the hell is this…”

My friend’s expression fits perfectly. How many times are you going to curse? You’ve got a rag in your mouth, uncle!

But what has this guy been looking at since earlier?

Just as I was about to tilt my head and follow my uncle’s gaze.

Hei Birang’s mouth dropped open.

“You, don’t say anything! I don’t have any disease!”

My friend had promoted it as a novel that highlighted the sickly, pitiful beauty of the Female Lead’s father, who would collapse at the drop of a hat but had a foul mouth.

Pitiful my ass. He’s glaring at me with a face that says he’ll dispose of me.

“Come on, let me give uncle a diagnosis.”

“No, I won’t!”

There are always stubborn patients among them. I’m used to it.

“If you have that kind of ability, get lost to the Main Hall. Why are you here?”

“Why don’t you just let me do it once? Sleeping in the corridor isn’t normal.”

“It is normal!”

“This isn’t the first time I’ve seen uncle lying in the corridor.”

“That was because I was cleaning the floor.”

Is this really… a conversation with an adult?

‘Who’s the three-year-old here?’

I remained calm.

“…I’m warning you, don’t go around saying unnecessary things about me, okay? I’m already going to have enough servants watching me because of tests and whatnot due to my Ability Awakening.”

Hei Birang, who was crouching down, lightly pushed my forehead.

Seeing me get pushed back just like that, Hei Birang looked flustered for a moment.

“Ah, damn. Why did you get pushed back?”

Says the one who pushed me.

‘I’m three years old, you fool.’

I brushed off my forehead.

“It hurts anyway.”

“Ahem, hey. I’m a pharmacist and physician, do you know how many people I’ve seen?”

Though there probably isn’t a physician more capable than me among them.

Eventually, Hei Birang let out a sigh with a tired face as if he bore all the world’s fatigue.

“Fine, I’m a bastard. Happy now?”

“…”

“Your story? I have absolutely no intention of listening. Got it? …I’m sick of hearing that there’s no medicine to cure this damn disease.”

The moment I made eye contact with Uncle, my whole body tingled.

This is killing intent.

It’s fine.

‘I knew he wouldn’t believe me even if I showed him my abilities.’

In the past too, there were many who wouldn’t believe me when I offered to heal them and would draw their swords first.

Even as my body instinctively trembled at the killing intent, I spoke clearly.

“You’ll regret it if you don’t listen.”

When I spoke indifferently, Hei Birang made an incredulous face.

“Ha, what a troublesome brat.”

I shrugged my shoulders.

“Fine then, don’t listen.”

“…Huh?”

The other party is a patient who’s extremely sensitive due to a long illness. I didn’t expect to succeed on the first try either.

‘I’ll have to make the first medicine and then think about it.’

Sigh. To think Uncle is the only person I can approach at this time.

In the Eastern Wing where I live, there are a total of three patients.

My father, Uncle, and Uncle.

The prickly Uncle before my eyes was still the best option among them.

“Get lost. Go to your father instead.”

After saying this, Hei Birang glanced around briefly, then pushed my forehead again.

“…But don’t go to Second Brother and tattle on me about what I did, okay?”

I stared intently at his retreating figure as he walked away unsteadily.

Whatever.

I quietly counted to ten in my mind.

One.

Two.

And ten.

Thud.

I could see Hei Birang collapsing.

My friend said that Hei Birang, who had a shitty personality but a frail body, looked like ‘Sleeping Beauty’.

‘More like a sleeping shitty uncle.’

I shrugged my shoulders.

“Yawn.”

I should go make some medicine.

* * *

After that day.

Biyu would find Hei Birang wherever and whenever he was sleeping, then slap him awake.

Slap slap!

“Uncle! Uncle!”

Slap!

“Wake up! Wake up! Your mouth is crooked!”

How on earth did she know where to find him?

No matter how hidden a corner he slept in, she would find him like a ghost and wake him up.

Biyu was confident.

‘I’ve lived here for years, this place is like the palm of my hand.’

After getting slapped dozens of times on the cheek, Hei Birang exploded.

“Has this damn brat gone crazy!”

“Kyaah! He’s awake!”

“I’m gonna XX and XX and XXX you!”

Hei Birang lived with accumulated fatigue from too much sleep, constantly irritated and stressed.

When his sensitivity reached its peak, even First Brother, who would go mad with mania, would slowly avoid him…

But this damn brat was a formidable opponent!

“Your mouth is twash!”

“What?”

“Trash! Trash!”

How audacious of her to point her finger at him!
