The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

 

Chapter 76

 

“Then what about him? Is it okay for him not to do it either?”

 

“Brother Gyewon is fine too.”

 

Actually, I thought it might be better for Brother Gyewon to stay at the Family Estate.

 

I was worried about leaving the child alone, and besides, I couldn’t exclude Uncle either.

 

Most importantly, Uncle said he wanted to try his first official outing with his son, so I agreed.

 

“Because he has the same constitution as Uncle.”

 

I’m really envious…

 

‘Maybe I should have made Little Uncle the coachman instead.’

 

This person talks too much.

 

Currently, Dad was on the carriage roof, and Uncle was driving the horses outside.

 

Actually, the Chief Administrator from the Main Hall had arranged for attendants and warriors.

 

But in the end, our group became quite small.

 

‘It would be better if we went by ourselves.’

 

‘I agree.’

 

Uncle and Dad said this because they couldn’t trust the Family House people. I agreed with that too.

 

So we ended up going just by ourselves.

 

Fortunately, Cheimik wasn’t that far away, so the carriage that had been running non-stop was already getting close to the village.

 

We would probably arrive today.

 

That afternoon.

 

“We’ll arrive in about 30 more minutes.”

 

We had stopped briefly to have a meal. We hadn’t stopped at any other cities or villages along the way.

 

The reason Dad was on the roof was to keep watch of the surroundings with his wind power.

 

And to push the carriage with his ability.

 

‘Things like this are different from when I was alone.’

 

If I had walked alone, forget a week – it would have taken up to a month at most.

 

I would have had to avoid the Conflict Zone. I don’t know how I managed it in my third life.

 

“Dad’s ability is really convenient.”

 

“How refreshing to hear.”

 

Dad, who had his arms crossed, chuckled.

 

These days, Dad’s expression seems a bit more relaxed, doesn’t it?

 

“Keuk! Keuk keuk!”

 

“Is it really okay to keep taking that fox with us?”

 

“There’s no one around.”

 

Ever since learning that white foxes are very precious animals, I’ve been more careful when taking Raon around with me.

 

‘She’s still young but incredibly smart. Amazingly, she can even distinguish medicinal herbs.’

 

Whenever the situation seems to get even slightly serious, she doesn’t bark and just looks at me – it’s so adorable.

 

“If I had been alone, I never would have dreamed of raising them.”

 

“….”

 

“I wouldn’t have had the power to protect such precious children.”

 

Raon is a precious fox, they said. And that’s not all. Bam-bam, who’s a Poison Horn Snake, is also very precious. If we were discovered, they would have been taken away.

 

“And if I had traveled this path alone, it would have taken a month to reach that village, wouldn’t it?”

 

“A meaningless hypothetical. I won’t leave your side anymore.”

 

Right. I’m hoping this life will be the last one too. I smiled.

 

“Dad, you said you keep wanting to go home when you’re not with me. Are you okay with missing home?”

 

I asked because I was worried he might have some kind of obsession, and Dad smiled softly as he picked me up.

 

“Ah. Since you reminded me, I should stay close to you.”

 

“Hehe.”

 

It sounds like an excuse, but I should put up with it. Dad seems to be smiling quite a bit more now.

 

‘His obsession seems to have gotten a bit better.’

 

That was fortunate.

 

“Do you remember anything lately?”

 

“Well, roughly.”

 

Dad stared at me intently. More precisely, he seemed to be looking at the clothes I was wearing.

 

“You were wearing pink clothes when you were a newborn baby.”

 

That’s about when I was little. I nodded.

 

“…I think I insisted that I liked yellow and changed it.”

 

“With whom?”

 

“…With some, woman.”

 

Dad fell into a brief silence, then immediately frowned deeply. His handsome face stayed like that for a while before he spoke again.

 

“What did I just say?”

 

“….”

 

As expected. Since this wasn’t the first time this had happened, I wasn’t surprised.

 

‘Every time he recalls something related to Mother, his memory gets erased again.’

 

Why?

 

Why can’t Dad remember only Mother?

 

Moreover, since Mother is often present in his memories with me, it seems like recalling me is also becoming slower.

 

Should I bring it up first?

 

“Speaking of memories, about Mother. She’s a very, very beautiful person.”

 

Dad had a ‘suddenly?’ expression but didn’t give a particularly negative response.

 

“Is that so…. If you say so, then it must be true.”

 

Though he seems uninterested.

 

‘He said he saw himself being lovesick and foolish in his memories. How could he have no interest in what kind of person he loved?’

 

Seeing how close the two of them were, I guess that’s why I felt so sorry for them.

 

“Really?”

 

“I’m not saying it’s a lie. And I can tell by looking at you. She must have been pretty.”

 

I was a bit flustered by that unexpected straightforward comment. More than that, I was even bewildered.

 

“What are you talking about! You shouldn’t be able to tell by looking at me!”

 

It’s awkward for me to say this, but Mother was really, really pretty, you know? She was incomparably more beautiful than me. A total beauty! A gorgeous woman!

 

If a beauty like our mother had held a fan signing event, I would have made a reservation by any means necessary.

 

“She was much prettier than me!!”

 

Don’t I know what my twenty-year-old face looked like?

 

I was already living with people saying all sorts of nonsense about seducing patients with my face.

 

She was even prettier than I was back then.

 

“That’s an interesting thing to say. I understand.”

 

It seems like Dad thinks I’m joking.

 

…Right, Father. How would you know? You yourself have such a blessed face.

 

No, but I’m getting a little upset – shouldn’t a beauty who surpasses both parents come from between a handsome man and beautiful woman?

 

Though if I were any prettier here, it would probably be troublesome.

 

“Very pretty, and what else?”

 

“…”

 

I recalled Mother’s portrait that I had seen long ago, and the image I had seen in Dad’s memories.

 

“…Mother has pretty smiling eyes and is gentle.”

 

“…”

 

“Her voice is also gentle, clear, and beautiful.”

 

She was someone who smiled so brightly that just looking at her would make you feel good too.

 

It was her expression when smiling at Dad. She looked so happy.

 

It was regrettable that the person in question couldn’t remember it.

 

“…And I think she loved me a lot.”

 

There are moments when love becomes visible.

 

That’s how the family of three looked in Dad’s memories that I had seen.

 

Under the pavilion, how happy that couple holding their newborn baby looked.

 

Even knowing that baby was me, I almost felt jealous.

 

On the other hand, when I first looked into Dad’s memories during treatment.

 

I also remembered the image of Mother smiling while stroking her belly when she was pregnant with me.

 

‘I’d like the name to include “Yu.”‘

 

Mother, who gave me half of my name.

 

It would have been so nice if I could have had a conversation with you too.

 

…Then I probably would have wanted to live here.

 

“You know what?”

 

I recalled the story I had heard in Dad’s memories.

 

“Mom and Dad ran away together for love.”

 

“…I did?”

 

“Is that so surprising?”

 

Dad’s eyes widened.

 

No, I thought he would have at least heard the story once, but he looks like he’s hearing it for the first time.

 

“…Who said that?”

 

“Dad did, in Dad’s memories.”

 

“….”

 

Since it’s his own statement, he seems to have nothing to say.

 

He still doesn’t seem to remember.

 

“I’m surprised too. Running away, really. Dad seems like the type who would just destroy everything and solve it if he didn’t like something.”

 

I recalled Dad’s appearance when he casually talked back to the Family Head. He was kind of cool then, wasn’t he?

 

“What do you think now, Dad? Why would you have had to run away?”

 

Dad seemed to be thinking.

 

Since he can’t recall things related to Mother to an excessive degree, his answer to this question might be a clue.

 

“…To protect her?”

 

“Hmm?”

 

Dad tilted his head and said something incredible with a nonchalant expression.
