Doctor Resignation

last memory of my nineteen-year-old.

When I came to my senses after the deep conversation with the old lady, I was back in my thirteen-year-old body.

“This doesn’t make any sense……”

I blinked several times in front of my reflection.

A girl with brown bobbed short hair and green emerald eyes standing there with an absurd face.

Is this what the old lady’s meant by another chance to live?!

By turning back the time, I was able to live in the past before being executed as one of the rebels in the Casseus territory.

“Oh my God!”

Looking at my outfit, it is still summer.

I remembered this outfit.
This is the very day that I was supposed to leave the nursery school at the corner of the Casseus territory and become Mr.
Ziban’s assistant.

“Let’s just run away.”

I should run away from the nursery school and get a job.

With my full medical knowledge, I will never starve to death since I am a genius doctor.

I am now still a doctor, I’m going to find a job so I can go anywhere.

“I just have to leave Casseus territory and then dash to any safe place.”

I murmured silently with a small voice.

Suddenly,

“Sister! Don’t forget about us!”

“You have to come over often, sister.”

“I know I have to leave when I’m thirteen soon, but I’m sad..”

“Sister is too smart even though you have a trash-like personality.”

“No, sister was nice to us even though her personality is not that good.”

The younger brothers who grew up in the same nursery school as me suddenly came in.

“Lise, I heard you are going to be Mr.
Ziban’s assistant.”

Teacher Elbern who treated me as his sister also came in.

Teacher Elbern risked his life to save me when I was still a baby.
I was inside a basket and flowed by the river at that time.
He even named me Lise.

“This is just a small gift from me.
I hope you become a great doctor as you always wish.”

Elbern handed me a notebook and pen as he smiled sweetly at me.
If it were me, I’d have to save my pocket money for a few months to buy high-quality pens and notebooks like this.

And that fact suddenly hits me.

These precious people died when the Imperial army swooped over the Casseus territory.

“Uh……”

Would it be the right choice to run away and live alone?

I stared at these special people in my heart with a confused look on my face.
Although I didn’t have any parents, I live well enough in the nursery school.

“I……”

Taking the notebook and pen, I breathed heavily.
Knowing the future, I couldn’t do anything for them.

“……I will be going to Casseus’ manor.
Not as Mr.
Ziban’s assistant.”

“What?” Elbern asked in surprise.

“I heard that the Duke Cerceus’ doctor, Arga, is looking for an assistant.”

“He always asked for an assistant.”

One of the children voiced out in my stead.

“It’s a problem that everyone got kicked out in less than a week.”

“I will not get kicked out.”

I raised my head and spoke in an indifferent tone.

“And why do you think so?”

“Obviously because I’m a genius.”

I couldn’t say that my mental age is 19 years old with full medical knowledge.

A child looked at me with suspicious eyes.

“Why would you want to be Arga’s assistant?”

“That……”

My voice’s tone became more serious.

“Because I’m a nice and tender-hearted person.”

I wanted to explain to him that I made a choice to go to Casseus manor to save my precious people, but I decided not to.

Elbern looked at me with his trembling eyes and replied,

“Well, it’s true that our Lise is a smart and kind girl.”

 

So with that, I headed out from the nursery and went to Casseus territory.

Viscount Arga Eitte Freeman is the Chief Physician in Casseus Duchy and was a very competent politician.

Moreover, he ran the largest herbal business and always said that he needed an assistant.

Of course, there is no one that stayed with him for more than a week because of his high standard and bad personality.

“……he is the only way for me to get into the mansion.”

I ended up making the decision.

I will not run away in order not to make Casseus territory fall into the hands of that crazy rebel.

To do that, I have to stop Frederick from coming to the Casseus estate.

“I need to save Erhan Casseus.
There is no other option.”

I have to save Erhan who died suddenly at the age of nineteen.

He is the same age as me.

Erhan who died when he reached adulthood suddenly appeared in my mind.

He kept coughing and he was too skinny.

“I have to build up his immunity from his young age…… and observe him closely.”

If only Erhan was to inherit the Dukedom, the territory would never be engulfed in the ridiculous rebellion.

“After everything went well, and there’s nothing left to do……”

Since Freeman is the only doctor in his mid-30s, there was no possibility that I would become the official doctor of the Duke.

“……I should go and search for my biological parents or make my own family.”

I didn’t even know my parents.
I thought I could live well without them since I’m smart.

Before the times turned back and when I was about to die, I was curious about them.

Did they abandon me? Or did they lose me because of unavoidable situations? I wanted to know the truth about my origins because.

Even if I can’t find them, It would be a good idea for me to get married and build my own family, unlike in my past.

“Let’s start with Erhan for now.”

I said with confidence and take a step inside the Casseus territory,

With a letter of recommendation to become Arga’s assistant that Elbern wrote urgently.
