The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius
Chapter 84
“You’re not going to take money?”
“Pardon…? Didn’t you say earlier that you liked money?”
“I won’t take it from you. What you just told me is enough.”
At that, Sylvester’s expression became strange.
Regardless of that, I had Dad open the medicine bag he was carrying.
“You’ll treat him?”
“Wait, you’re going to treat him just trusting what was said verbally? At the very least, leave a contract.”
“His condition is serious. It’s fine. I’ll leave it to your conscience.”
“Wait…!”
I poured water onto my hand.
Immediately a water stream shot up.
I looked at the man who got water splashed on his glasses and grinned.
Wow, I get to see the dumbfounded face of a man who’s always so flawless.
“Don’t faint. It’s hard to give medicine to someone who’s fainted.”
Since I had already made medicine for Lord Rederick, making it again wasn’t difficult.
‘Hmm, I might be lacking in energy today.’
Carefully checking my remaining energy, I held out the completed medicine to Sylvester.
“Drink it.”
Sylvester gripped the medicine bottle tightly and let out a sigh.
“This doesn’t even feel like taking advantage of a child. I advise you not to do business or deals this way.”
Sylvester glanced at his unconscious superior, then looked at me and shook the bottle slightly.
“Being healthy is definitely much better. I’ll make a proper contract.”
Sylvester stomped his foot with a somewhat fed-up expression. That was the moment.
Dad stepped back while holding me.
Rumble.
With a small vibration, an earth pillar shot up from the floor.
“You don’t need to be surprised. I’m an Earth Mage.”
Amazingly, the top of the earth pillar was cut diagonally.
The smooth surface had a palm-shaped depression carved into it.
“Place your hand there. The ability I just used is a basic ability used for contracts. If either party doesn’t keep the contracted conditions, they get dragged underground, well, that kind of ability.”
I knew that Earth Mages oversee contract-related matters in this land.
I had used Earth Mage contracts before too. It was just interesting since this format was new to me.
“Good.”
I secretly hid a smile inside.
‘Even if I treat him first, I have a way to make him obediently listen to me, so if he comes out like this, I’m grateful, right?’
That’s when it happened. The hand I was about to place on the earth pillar was caught.
Dad placed his own hand instead of mine with a face full of dissatisfaction.
“What do you think you’re doing, carelessly putting your hand up? I’ll do it.”
Sylvester responded to Dad’s words.
“Sorry, but that’s difficult, Hei Bihu. This contract is between the parties involved.”
I patted Dad and placed my hand up.
“It’s okay, Dad.”
“…If you do anything foolish, I’ll cut off your head.”
“….”
…Did this dad decide to remove the filter from his words now that he’s been caught being an assassination king?
“Daughter will be fine, so calm down!”
I grabbed his face just like Dad had done to me and pressed his lips firmly.
Then I placed my hand on the contract without hesitation.
Whooom.
I felt vibration in my palm.
Earth covered the back of my hand and a faint golden light flowed out.
It was a gentle and warm light.
‘This is quite different from the Earth Mage contracts I know.’
Usually when you write your name at the end of a contract containing an Earth Mage’s power, light flows out.
However, that light is so sharp it hurts your eyes.
“The contract conditions are that the Physician will completely cure me, and in return I will fulfill the imperial envoy’s purpose and desires. Is that correct?”
“Yes.”
“It is completed.”
The earth pillar that had risen from the floor smoothly disappeared. Sylvester had said that if the contract was broken, he would be dragged deep underground.
“There won’t be any need to be dragged away. You’ll get much better if you take that medicine.”
Sylvester swallowed the medicine.
Then the spots that had covered his cheeks, neck, and back of his hands smoothly disappeared.
He looked at the back of his hand with wonder.
“I didn’t think I could be cured… This must be what you Eastern People call fate.”
Is that so? It could be.
If I hadn’t come, everyone here would have died.
“Then I just need to save your Superior too, right?”
I raised the water that had settled again. That’s when it happened. Sylvester blocked in front of the water stream.
“In return for saving me without receiving a single coin, let me tell you one thing. The Superior here has a somewhat arrogant personality, unlike me.”
Sylvester pointed at the unconscious Superior with his fingertip.
He warned that if I healed him like this, just like himself, it would definitely be troublesome.
Then he suggested cheerfully.
“Why don’t you treat him only halfway?”
“Huh?”
“This might sound strange, but…”
“No, no. That’s fine.”
“Huh?”
“I’m surprised because it’s exactly what I was thinking.”
I smiled brightly and waved my hand. A medicine of a slightly different color from what I gave Sylvester was created.
“From the beginning, I was only planning to treat half of the Imperial Knight.”
“…Why is that?”
“That way, they’ll listen well when I tell them to come back for the other half.”
If I didn’t treat him, the Imperial Knights would have pressured me.
If I treated him completely, there’s a high chance they’d be annoying, saying things like let’s go to the Imperial Palace together or making empty promises.
“…I thought you said you don’t play around with people’s lives.”
“Ah, bad people are an exception.”
I playfully narrowed my eyes.
“So is your superior a bad person?”
Sylvester, who had been staring at me, shrugged his shoulders.
“Now that I think about it, he really does seem like a bad person. He abused his power and made things difficult. To the point where I considered quitting?”
“Perfect then.”
Starting from when he took the Village Chief position claiming he was sick.
I was already planning to only treat him halfway and threaten him anyway.

“Oh, Dragon! Guardian deity of the Western Continent! Thank you… thank you…!”
A moment later, the person who was Sylvester’s superior opened his eyes. His name was ‘Detlef Grote’.
Just as Sylvester had described, he was an arrogant, typical Western Continent noble.
“Well, well, I’m alive. I thought treatment from an Eastern Continent person would smell strange, but that wasn’t the case? Is it because you’re still a baby, so the smell of urine is masked by baby powder scent? Hahaha.”
He was the type of person who subtly showed contempt toward Eastern Continent people.
“I shall personally offer my thanks.”
To Detlef, who was greeting me in a condescending manner, I only smiled brightly.
“Oh, what should I do… My skills are a bit lacking. I think you’ll die in 5 days!”
“…What?”
Dear customer, Ppiyune Clinic operates on a pay-later system, so you’ll need to pay additional fees.
“But it’s not like there’s no solution.”
“Wh-what’s the solution!”
I showed a somewhat wicked smile.
“If you show a little sincerity, it might actually be possible?”
It wasn’t strange that Detlef, who was approaching hesitantly, tripped over something presumed to be wind and fell.
– Keep your distance.
