The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

Chapter 63

He had only followed orders.

‘Provoke Hei Bihu, child. If he has recalled even the slightest memory, he will surely react to ‘these words’.’

Exactly as his Master had told him, without missing a single syllable. Without leaving out a single thing!

‘And if he reacts, it will be a success.’

If there was any fault in him, it was only that he had faithfully carried out his Master’s orders.

But.

‘I’m going to die…’

The foot stepping on him felt like it would snap his neck at any moment.

No, even if he survived, he would surely be crippled.

His Master had definitely said she would take responsibility for everything.

But now doubts began to creep in.

Would his Master really… spend great cost to restore him to health?

Only then did San Gongmin realize he had been deceived.

Even though he had seen his Master discard countless Warriors like Toy Soldiers all this time.

‘I believed I would be different…’

He shouldn’t have believed those whispered words claiming she cherished him.

That face…!

His Master had merely used him as a Chess Piece as well.

‘Damn woman of the Hei Family…!’

It wasn’t like he didn’t know.

The Direct Line of the Hei Family were all the same without exception.

Noble, cunning, and treating Warriors like tools to be used carelessly.

But whatever the case, he had thought that escaping this Empire would be better than wandering from battlefield to battlefield wherever he went.

In the end, it was he who had clung like a fly hoping for scraps, so he had nothing to say.

“Kheuk, keup, spare me…!”

The mission was a success, but he would soon die.

“Close Warriors do not beg for their lives.”

“Keuk, kheheuk!”

Far from mercy, a voice as cold as death’s reached his ears.

“Your education seems to have been lacking.”

When he barely managed to open his bloodshot eyes, he saw a face that was beyond expressionless—desolate.

“Spit out the master behind you.”

“Cough, ah…”

“Then I might mercifully send you off.”

He even thought it would be better to just die than face those murderous eyes.

It was over.

He knew Hei Bihu well.

The one who was once the sharpest sword of the Hei Family.

A guard dog who carried out all sorts of dirty work.

Rumors were rampant that he had lost his memory and his abilities weren’t what they used to be. He had foolishly believed only that and accepted the job.

But even a rusted blade was still a blade…

It was the moment San Gongmin closed his eyes in bitter regret.

“Dad.”

A delicate voice reached his ears.

Hei Bihu looked at the little girl who had pierced through the wind and grabbed his sleeve.

Surely his face right now was filled with murderous intent. It must be the same face from when he used to do all that dirty work in the past.

Even he couldn’t contain his own killing intent. If he was like this, it must certainly look menacing to a child.

However, the child spoke with innocent and peaceful eyes, as if unaffected by anything.

“Don’t do it.”

“…”

He had surrounded the area with wind so no one could interfere, but the child was the exception.

“Don’t kill him.”

He had made it that way.

It was something that couldn’t be explained rationally.

“I’m someone who saves people. And this place… is a clinic.”

Hei Bihu slowly released the strength from his leg.

Like a trained beast.

Not only that, but he stepped back.

San Gongmin, who barely escaped from under Hei Bihu’s foot, coughed violently as if he were dying.

The child smiled brightly.

“Good job. Dad is the best.”

Why was it that Hei Bihu flinched for just a moment?

‘Well done, my husband. You were wonderful.’

Someone’s brightly smiling face flashed before him, making his chest ache.

Meanwhile, Biyu was patting her chest in relief.

‘Wow, I really didn’t think he’d listen to me.’

Others might have seen it differently, but from Biyu’s perspective…

Dad had lost his mind.

There are several external characteristics that appear when a person gets excited.

‘I doubted whether he really had madness.’

So Biyu was half-doubtful even when she approached Dad.

When she asked him to stop, she thought that this time he might not listen to her words.

In the end, it was resolved well though.

“Phew….”

Currently, Biyu and Hei Bihu were sitting in the empty medical room.

The situation had already drawn so much attention that they couldn’t attract any more eyes.

‘Please go inside, I’ll take responsibility for everything until it quiets down! Please leave it to me.’

Jeok Yunha had boasted that she would handle everything.

Bam-bam and Raon were taken away by Hei Gyewon and Tak Minjae.

They thought the baby animals might be in danger if Dad was still in an excited state.

Biyu pressed Dad’s hand firmly. These were pressure points that helped calm him down.

“Are you coming to your senses now?”

“…You’re talking as if I wasn’t in my right mind.”

“That’s how it looked? Wasn’t it?”

“….”

Hei Bihu didn’t answer.

A little later, unbelievably, he spoke with a slightly sulky expression.

“I was angry, but I didn’t lose my mind. From the beginning, not listening to your words was never an option.”

Of course, Biyu couldn’t believe it all.

“Maybe if you had prepared to dodge.”

“…I was preparing to kill someone in the middle of it.”

“I won’t kill.”

Hei Bihu stared at the air for a moment. Then he turned his head.

‘Lord Gongmin, are you, are you alright…!’

‘You support that side!’

San Gongmin’s final appearance after causing trouble was pitiful. He disappeared while being carried by the warrior who came with him.

Even if he returned, he would never be able to serve his master like before.

‘He’ll be discarded.’

And the direct line of the Hei Family would discard that warrior without hesitation.

Since they would have achieved their goal of making him step forward.

Hei Bihu stepped forward knowing that all of this was a trap to draw him in.

“I’m telling you in advance, in the same situation, you can do anything from now on. You can hit me or curse at me to stop me.”

“…Would it even hurt if I hit you?”

Biyu was serious. Would hitting him with her soft fists to make Dad come to his senses even register?

“I was a bad person in the past.”

It was a sudden confession, but it wasn’t surprising.

“Everyone in the family except the young children would know.”

“….”

“That I was a famous madman and a dog in the family.”

Strangely, those words seemed like past tense, and also like he was criticizing himself for losing his memories.

“So do you regret it?”

“I don’t know.”

Hei Bihu answered calmly.

“I don’t remember everything enough to regret it.”

In the end, everything comes down to memory.

At one time, he had grown sick and tired of this fact, feeling disgusted by it.

Hei Bihu’s pale red eyes turned toward his daughter.

“My anger earlier was genuine. But I had this thought.”

He had been thinking constantly. What could a father whose mind had become a blank slate give to his daughter?

“If only you, my daughter, can calm me down when I’m acting like a madman.”

“….”

“The family would treasure you more, I thought.”

He decided to put a leash around his own neck and give the end of the reins to his young daughter.

She just had a frail body with no means to protect herself. But she was a wise and clever child.

Even a father who had lost his past glory had something he could give.

“On the day we first met, you said you wanted to go to the Main Hall. Your influence. I’ll give you that.”

Biyu’s eyes widened slightly.

“The family still covets me and my ability. Some persistently try to check my condition, and sometimes someone sends an assassin to eliminate me.”

Wind ability users were welcomed wherever they went on this continent.

So they didn’t give up on him despite his broken mind and kept sending people each time.

It was such a tedious time that even he, who had lost his memories, felt disillusioned with people.

“No one in this world will be able to control me. Except for you.”

As Bihu said this, he directed his gaze behind Biyu.

He was sometimes curious about the woman’s figure he saw behind Biyu. It was the woman’s figure he saw when he felt like something was about to come back to him.

But he could never see her face.

On the other hand, he thought the expression of the child staring at him blankly was lovely.

Bihu finally smiled.

He had never found beautifully blooming and withering flowers or small baby animals cute.

He acknowledged that this was a special emotion.

“Until you acknowledge me as your father. I will become your one and only sword.”
