The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius
Chapter 79
Fortunately, not long after the medicine had dribbled from his mouth, the patient slowly opened his eyes.
“Mmm…”
Along with the patient’s groaning voice, I could hear Coma’s dazed muttering.
“Crazy… mon… monster…!”
When I turned around, I saw Coma staring at me in shock.
“Wh-what method did you use? All of the lord’s spots have disappeared… this can’t be possible…!”
Familiar words that I had heard countless times before flashed through my memory.
‘This can’t be possible! That young physician… There’s no way I’d lose to some teenage girl!’
‘It’s fraud! She’s a fraud!’
Brother Gyewon, who had been acting as my assistant, glared sharply at Coma.
“…What? When did you cling to us begging for treatment?”
Well, I was fine with it.
Even this was familiar to me.
“Ah…! I’m sorry! I was just so surprised… A genius… It’s my first time seeing a genius physician like you!”
Fortunately, he seemed to have some sense.
But it seemed like I was the only one who was fine with it.
“Those who don’t know gratitude deserve to fall.”
Coma swayed in the wind and fell to his knees. He groaned as if feeling pain in his shoulder.
“The Wind of Justice won’t stay still.”
I blinked at the unexpected words, then burst out laughing.
“So cheesy.”
While listening to Dad’s voice, I thought quietly.
Ah, thinking about it, I probably wasn’t okay before either but just pretended to be.
Seeing how satisfying it was to watch that physician fall proves it.
“When were you sniveling and begging to be saved? What an ungrateful person.”
“I will apologize for that.”
I turned my gaze toward the unfamiliar voice. The owner of the voice was the patient who had just opened his eyes.
His eyes looking at me seemed a bit troubled, yet he smiled gently.
“Please forgive the rudeness of lying down when meeting my benefactor. I also apologize on behalf of my friend’s rudeness.”
His voice was hoarse and raspy, and he spoke slowly as if it was difficult to talk.
‘I’ve treated all the serious symptoms. It must be a stamina issue.’
The rest should recover with a few more doses of medicine and proper rest?
There was a reason I had decided to treat this man to near-complete recovery.
‘Even the Village Chief is bedridden. This situation needs a leader.’
Preferably someone with authority who can provide ongoing support.
The Lord of Rederick, who had regained consciousness, seemed to be looking around the room.
“Um, but… the Physician who treated me… which, which person should I greet?”
I thought he was speaking to me. Was he just looking because I was nearby?
“Me.”
How would he react? I waited with interest, and the lord, staggering as he forced himself upright, dropped to his knees with a thud!
“My, my lord!’
I was startled. Dad had suddenly approached and was blocking my way.
“Thank you… for saving my life, Physician.”
His greeting was simple without ceremony, but filled with sincerity.
“I was terrified that I would die helplessly like this, never to see my wife’s face again.”
This was also sincere. It seemed like he had given the most earnest and respectful greeting he could.
I grabbed Dad’s leg and poked just my head out.
What an interesting person.
Until now, patients who greeted me with such sincerity and respect were very rare.
I felt good knowing my choice had been right.
“I must have been lucky to meet such an amazing Physician.”
Seeing the lord’s slightly smiling face, I felt relieved.
Good, if it’s this person…
‘A pushover… no. I should be able to obtain medicinal materials without difficulty, right?’
There were still many patients left. Though the family had provided support, I thought we might run short of medicinal materials since the illness was progressing faster than in previous cycles.
“Daddy, I’m okay.”
Since Dad was still blocking the way, I grabbed his clothes and tried to push him aside.
I looked up at Dad and paused.
“…”
Dad’s face was somehow pale. Why was he like that? I became serious too.
“Daddy? What’s wrong?”
“No, it’s nothing…”
That’s not the face of someone who’s fine!
But Dad said he was okay and stepped back slightly.
– I’m really fine. It’s because of memories.
Dad’s voice echoed in my head. It was a voice sent only to me, inaudible to anyone else.
‘If that’s the case…’
Dad chose to step back toward the wall, his steps slightly unsteady.
I was suspicious, but finishing the conversation with the lord came first.
“If it’s not rude, may I ask the name of my benefactor, the Physician?”
The lord was an extraordinary person.
From the moment I introduced myself as a physician, he hadn’t wavered even once.
Either he wasn’t easily surprised, or he was good at controlling his emotions.
Either way, it was the kind of temperament that the territory residents would like, which was welcome news to me.
“I am Hei, Ppiyu of the Hei Family.”
“Ah. So you are Lord Hei Ppiyu of the Hei Family.”
…When will I ever be able to introduce myself properly? I bit my tongue firmly and pronounced it again.
“Yes. Ppiyu.”
“Yes. Lord Ppiyu.”
Brother Gyewon who was beside me corrected him.
“…Pfft, th-the physician’s name is Lord Hei Biyu.”
Brother couldn’t hold back his laughter, and behind him I could see Dad leaning against the wall with a pale face but still chuckling quietly.
I’ll deal with both of them later…
“Yes, yes!”
The disciplined Coma hurriedly rushed out of the room.
As soon as Coma left, the Lord let out a heavy sigh.
“Actually, that man didn’t become a physician through skill. The reason the Lord’s Castle sent him here is also…”
The Lord rubbed his face, looking somewhat tired.
“It would be to kill me.”
