The Terminal Baby Physician Doesn’t Hide Being a Genius

 

Chapter 90

 

While I was dumbfounded.

 

Outside, Detlef, the culprit behind this whole situation, was speaking.

 

“Ahem… Fine. I’ll acknowledge it. You must inform the physician of my message without fail. If I can’t see her tomorrow, I’ll have you arrested and punished!”

 

“…I’ll keep that in mind.”

 

“Tsk, how stubborn. These stinking Eastern People really…”

 

Detlef’s insulting words no longer reached my ears.

 

After Detlef went outside.

 

“Biyu? Where did she go? Did she go to the bathroom…”

 

Until Brother Gyewon called for me, then closed the door and went outside.

 

I couldn’t say anything at all.

 

I barely managed to crack the door open. That was all I could do.

 

More light seeped in, and I could see the child’s appearance completely.

 

‘Wow…’

 

The child was so beautiful it made my eyes widen.

 

Like an angel that had just fallen from the sky.

 

Every strand of hair was beautiful silver. Those large eyes were still looking at me.

 

‘…This is the first time I’ve seen silver hair here.’

 

The eye color was a beautiful gold, as if sparkling suns had been embedded in them.

 

Moreover, it was a truly pretty color that changed saturation slightly under the light.

 

It was unmistakably Raon’s color.

 

The skin was white as snow and the cheeks were pink. The child looked only at me for a long while.

 

“…Were you surprised?”

 

The voice that carefully spoke was incredibly clear.

 

A doll can talk too?

 

I thought that in a daze. The child was truly that beautiful.

 

This is the first time I’ve seen a kid with longer eyelashes than me!

 

Honestly, I was also a pretty girl(?) baby who stood out wherever I went.

 

‘At this rate, when he grows up he’ll be similar to Dad, right?’

 

A person who would become such a handsome man wasn’t a major character?

 

“Uh, uhh?”

 

Me, Hei Biyu. This was the first time I’d lost my words to beauty.

 

“…I remember everything now.”

 

The child said hesitantly. It was clear pronunciation.

 

“My name is Kaniel.”

 

The more I looked at the hair, the more I thought that kid really was Raon.

 

The soft-looking quality was the same even after becoming human.

 

‘But wait, she really became human?’

 

But why did she suddenly become human? Why had she been living as a fox until now?

 

“But… I like the name you gave me better. Can I keep using it?”

 

“Huh? Oh, um. Do whatever you want.”

 

I scratched my cheek. First, I needed an explanation for this awkward situation.

 

“So, you really are Raon, right?”

 

The child nodded.

 

“That’s right.”

 

“Are you human?”

 

“Yes. Human.”

 

“Then why were you until now…”

 

“A fox, you mean?”

 

I quickly nodded. An explanation was needed.

 

“Well… I remember Mother turning me into a fox. And my memories from when I was a fox are scattered. I remember it being difficult…”

 

Raon, no. Kaniel said that his mother had turned his young self into a Baby Fox and sent him far away into the hands of someone trustworthy.

 

The destination was actually supposed to be the Eastern Continent.

 

But then things went wrong, and while desperately running away, the place where he collapsed was

 

the Black Forest Area where I had been.

 

“This is really shameless of me, but could you help me? I can’t get caught…”

 

An incredibly pretty child’s eyes welled up with tears. The effect was tremendous.

 

“I became human thanks to your voice. You were desperately muttering that I absolutely couldn’t get caught, and I really wanted to help you.”

 

“Ah. So if you became human because of that… can you become a fox again?”

 

“Mm, probably.”

 

She said she thought she could now go back and forth between fox and human form.

 

I scratched my neck.

 

“Then what exactly are you?”

 

“I am… Um, Mother told me. We’re a very special clan that serves the Dragon.”

 

Is there such a clan in the Eastern Continent?

 

Raon closed her eyes tightly as if showing off her specialness.

 

Poof!

 

Fox ears appeared above her head and three tails appeared behind her bottom.

 

“Th-this is possible!”

 

Oh, it’s completely cute but looks pretty useless.

 

I pressed down hard on my hands that were itching to touch them.

 

“Your tails are really pretty.”

 

“Right? Mother said they were pretty too.”

 

I politely clapped for her.

 

“And Mother said that the number of tails will keep increasing!”

 

A fox whose tail grows longer. Doesn’t that seem just like a nine-tailed fox? And that somehow inhuman beautiful appearance too…

 

But I didn’t voice it out loud.

 

“Raon, um, I don’t know if I should call you this way. But I’ve already accepted you as family.”

 

“….”

 

“So don’t worry. I’ll help you.”

 

From the beginning, didn’t I plan to send this child back to the Eastern Continent, knowing he was a smuggled white fox?

 

The child’s face brightened. At the same time, his eyes welled up even more.

 

‘There are rumors going around that if you eat part of a white fox, you can even bring the dead back to life.’

 

Honestly speaking.

 

After hearing such words, how could I abandon him? Though I had no intention of abandoning him anyway.

 

“Keep calling me Raon. I like it much better than the name my father, no, the Emperor gave me.”

 

“Yeah. Okay. Please take care of me.”

 

“I’ll be helpful.”

 

Raon grabbed my hand firmly. Perhaps because he was a boy, his hands were slightly bigger than mine.

 

“I have a special ability. I’ll be helpful!”

 

* * *

 

“I just went to scold my younger sibling for a moment, and now there’s some boy here…”

 

“Woo woo, I’m against the men’s bath, against it.”

 

The next day. Various complaints overflowed at the breakfast table.

 

I was dumbfounded.

 

‘How can they say such things after causing all that commotion yesterday?’

 

Last night, Uncle who came carrying bread.

 

Uncle and Dad who came back covered in dust, saying they had peacefully ended their talk(?).

 

And finally, Brother Gyewon who had turned pale thinking I’d gone missing when I went to the bathroom and had been searching for me.

 

I reintroduced Raon to all the party members.

 

‘This one says he’s a Prince.’

 

Dad had already heard, but when I explained the background to the rest of them.

 

Their reactions were truly fierce.

 

‘Let’s eliminate him.’

 

‘Why would you do that?! Are you crazy?’

 

They looked at him almost like an enemy, so I had a hard time explaining.

 

Fortunately, the fact that Raon’s age was almost the same as mine played a part in persuading them.

 

“Damn it, this isn’t a kindergarten. How can a kid raise a kid!”

 

“Uncle Poo, if you put it that way, Uncle Poo is the most immature. You’re the most childish one.”

 

Since I firmly declared that I would take Raon with me, no one opposed anymore.

 

But there seemed to be complaints.

 

‘How could I abandon a child in a similar situation to mine.’

 

The feelings I had when I first saw Raon still remain. Moreover, a child who lost his mother.

 

His father is a person who doesn’t even seem like a parent, trying to devour the child.

 

“It’s the head of family’s decision.”

 

“That’s right, stop whining now. Uncles. Father too.”

 

Brother Gyewon is more mature than them. Is our group really okay?

 

I shook my head from side to side.

 

Still, if there’s something that improved with Raon’s appearance, it’s that Dad, who was acting a bit awkward, returned to his usual self?

 

After the meal ended, Dad grabbed me and said he had made up his mind.

 

“If that fox became human, then he’s no longer a pet anymore.”

 

“…Wouldn’t that be right?”

 

“An adopted son or my disciple would be fine.”

 

Dad spoke as if he had made a big decision. He really had a solemn expression.

 

“Boyfriend is not allowed.”

 

…What is this man talking about? He did the same thing with Tak Minjae.

 

“I’m still three years old. This Dad.”

 

“Three years old will someday become thirteen, and twenty-three…”

 

“Oh my?”

 

Watching Dad make a choked-up expression, I felt it.

 

‘His expressions have become richer.’

 

Gilberg’s shock therapy seems to have unintentionally taken effect.

 

I shrugged my shoulders.

 

“How about focusing on what we should talk about now rather than thirteen years old that will be in 10 years? Dad and I have a lot to talk about, right? Tell me when you’re ready.”

 

“…”

 

It’s too chaotic right now.

 

‘Let’s hurry up and finish this epidemic first.’

 

We have a long way to go, and I had no intention of dragging out this Cheimik disease for long.

 

* * *

 

That same afternoon.

 

I was standing in the village plaza.

 

In one corner of the plaza, there was a pile of disgusting things that had been the reason Uncle had been so busy.

 

“Little one, as you requested, we caught everything we could catch.”

 

Uncle smiled brightly.

 

“Uncle almost died from disgust. Look here, look here, see the goosebumps?”

 

“I don’t see any.”

 

“Kyaaak, Uncle actually has a phobia of rats! Maybe it’ll get better if you give me a kiss?”

 

I turned my head away from Uncle, who was posing like a teenage fan with a cold expression on my face.

 

What was piled up in front of me were dirty rat corpses.

 

‘…There really are a lot of them.’

 

I examined them carefully. Uncle asked from beside me.

 

“Hey, why did you tell Elder Brother to catch these?”

 

“Well… because these are what spread the disease.”

 

The Cheimik disease – these rats were the main culprits spreading it.

 

More precisely, it starts with fleas infected with bacteria.

 

The fleas suck the rats’ blood and get infected, then these rats spread the disease.

 

‘Then where did these fleas come from? I haven’t been able to figure that out yet.’

 

Cheimik wasn’t an environment where those fleas could thrive.

 

I’ll think about that later – first, to prevent the disease from spreading further, I need to deal with the cause.

 

I was calmly counting the numbers when someone came running.

 

“Physician!”

 

It was Lord Rederick. Beside him I could see the Knight who was his Assistant that I had treated yesterday.

 

“Have you heard the news? Personnel who departed from the Castle will arrive soon.”

 

I nodded. That was good news. Lord Rederick smiled cheerfully.

 

“There’s one more piece of good news. A major Family has joined to help treat the disease.”

 

“…Huh?”

 

I felt an ominous feeling.

 

“It’s the Sinion Family, one of the Eight Families! Their Physician is coming with them.”
