Doctor’s Rebirth

“Hey! What are you doing?”

“Hmm…?”

Yeo Ha-ryun wiped his face with his sleeve.

Since the sleeve was already dirty with blood, wiping his face only made it dirtier.

‘He’s always been like this. I had forgotten his true nature.’

He enjoyed killing. His bloodthirsty nature craved it.

Even if he hadn’t killed anyone yet, it wouldn’t change.

“Take this.”

As the tanghulu almost fell to the ground, Yeo Ha-ryun quickly caught it.

“But wait, there’s more.”

Beneath Yeo Ha-ryun’s feet, one of the fallen Samgyeon members lay with twisted limbs and blood oozing from his skull.

Jin Cheon-hee immediately understood what he meant by ‘more.’

“Stop.”

“He used martial arts like this to oppress the weak. So, it’s okay to kill him.”

With injuries like that, maybe modern medicine could help. He would probably survive rather than die.

‘But I won’t help him.’

Jin Cheon-hee was a doctor, but that didn’t make him a saint.

There will be a lot of other doctors around here, so they’ll find them or not.

‘But no, because if he commit his first murder here, he’s going to attract a lot of attention.’

There were moderate factions that advocated leaving Yeo Ha-ryun alone, as well as factions targeting him.

Getting information that he had already killed someone here would triple the difficulty of Jin Cheon-hee’s future.

‘How to calm down this crazy kid is the problem. He hasn’t completely recognized me as his older brother yet.’

Even now, the instincts of his bloodthirsty nature were likely pushing him.

Jin Cheon-hee said casually, “Oh, the tanghulu is melting.”

At that moment, without even realizing it, Yeo Ha-ryun took a bite of the tanghulu.

SFX: Slurp—

It couldn’t be helped. It was human instinct.

Whether the sweetness of the syrup was stimulating his brain or not, his expression relaxed.

Jin Cheon-hee said, “If you get blood on the tanghulu, you have to throw it away.”

“But…”

“You want to eat it after that? Are you a beggar?”

At the question of whether he was a beggar, Yeo Ha-ryun’s eyebrows twitched.

He eventually got up.

“Okay.”

‘It’s a relief. At least the kid is young enough to enjoy something sweet.’

Jin Cheon-hee breathed a sigh of relief.

As expected, he couldn’t let his guard down until they reached the martial arts gym.

While strength might dominate in the martial arts world, there were still limits in the normal world.

Jin Cheon-hee took the Little Supreme Demon to a nearby well to wash up.

He couldn’t return to the Cloud Dragon Escort Bureau with a blood-stained face.

Little Supreme Demon hadn’t been paying attention, busily eating the tanghulu that Jin Cheon-hee had given him.

‘Hah, I’m gonna die. I’m gonna die.’

Although the bloodstains on his clothes weren’t washing away easily, they were now at the level of a child soaked in water.

Yeo Ha-ryun looked puzzled as to why Jin Cheon-hee was going to such lengths.

“It’s all part of social life, young one.”

“Social life?”

“Yes, it’s a story far beyond what you know. Besides, why would a Supreme Demon like you worry about social life? You should just get rid of those annoying guys one by one. They are cancerous.’

It’s a demonic slogan.

It can be said that the will of the first Supreme Demon to dye the world black was well captured.

I tremble at the mere thought of witnessing it with my own eyes.

Overwhelming shame engulfed me. Regardless of how I contemplate it, I cannot muster a reason to smile.

“Hey! Is that you? Master Gong.”

A voice reached my ears. Raising his gaze, Jin Cheon-hee saw a familiar, plump man approaching, cradling a child.

“Oh! Mister?”

It was Dam Ja-Gang, sworn brother of Woon Ji-Sung, the head of the Cloud Dragon Escort Bureau.

He was the first patient Jin Cheon-hee treated. Not only did he safeguard his money amidst the bandits, but he also insisted on passing money to his wife through Jin Cheon-hee.

His determination was truly remarkable.

“I heard the story at the market and came searching for you.”

While everyone else addressed Jin Cheon-hee, this man elevates him as ‘Master Gong’ and spoke to him with great respect.

In Dam Ja-Gang’s arms, there was a baby nestled, adorned in adorable little shoes.

“Oh, who is this…?”

“When I returned from my journey, the child had already been born and grown this much. It’s not uncommon for us escorts.”

The baby opened its round eyes and gazed at Jin Cheon-hee.

“Bya…”

The baby sucked its thumb.

“Cheon-hee, look. This person saved your father’s life.”

“Cheon-hee?”

“I named him after Master Gong, so it’s Dam Cheon-hee.”

Before Jin Cheon-hee could react, the baby suddenly exclaimed, “Kya!”

The baby moved its arms, seemingly wanting to be picked up. Jin Cheon-hee hesitated but eventually cradled the baby in his arms.

‘Are you going to walk soon?’

At first glance, the baby was quite a strong baby.

“Bya! Abababa!”

The baby reached out to Jin Cheon-hee’s clothes, leaving drool stains, but Jin Cheon-hee didn’t mind.

The baby looked healthy, and Dam Ja-Gang seemed happy.

‘Yeah, it’s for this reason that I became a doctor.’

Others believe that being a doctor is a rewarding profession.

They envision everyday life as a profound human drama. However, in reality, deriving such satisfaction from this line of work is quite rare.

Usually, it’s because there’s an excessive workload, so you simply… work, and work, and work…

“Master Gong.”

“Yes?”

“My last escort mission ended well, thanks to you. From now on, I want to focus on managing the escort bureau.”

“Did you have to beg earnestly for this request?”

Although he preserved his life, becoming a cripple was highly detrimental for an escort. Dam Ja-Gang shook his head.

“For a long time, my brother was going to put me as a footnote in the Bureau. However, after my last mission, I still had lingering regrets, so I made this final request. Thanks to your grace, I returned alive, and I can support my wife and child. I’m deeply thankful for that.”

Suddenly, Dam Ja-Gang’s eyes welled up with tears. Embarrassed, he averted his gaze.

“My in-laws are waiting, so I should return. Let’s go, Cheon-hee.”

“Bya! Byabyabya!”

As he looked back, Jin Cheon-hee saw the baby holding Yeo Ha-ryun’s hand.

Even though his hand was sticky with saliva, Yeo Ha-ryun didn’t withdraw it nor avert his gaze; he simply watched this scene for a while.

“…”

Eventually, the baby released Yeo Ha-ryun’s hand.

Jin Cheon-hee handed the baby back to its father.

The baby uttered some incomprehensible sounds, perhaps expressing disappointment.

“Karru!”

Jin Cheon-hee smiled along with the baby’s laughter and waved his hand.

“Stay healthy.”
