Mom puts side dishes on top of rice.
“You don’t like beans? Would you like something else?”
I’m used to my left hand now, so it’s okay… .
“no, that’s fine. I can eat by myself.”
“I want my mother to do it for me.”
I tried to say it was okay again, but I remembered how you looked like you were about to cry when you missed your side dish while chopsticks the other day, and I couldn’t stop it.
I have to do better to not worry, but I can’t even stop my mother from taking care of me like this every time… I’m afraid it won’t get any better.
“Are you going to stop eating?”
“Yeah, I ate it all.”
“You haven’t even eaten half yet. If the side dishes are not good, even delivery food… .”
“No, it’s because I have no appetite. And you don’t move much, but if you eat a lot, you will gain weight.”
“Our Min-ha can gain some weight.”
“no. Mom, go ahead and eat.”
“okay. Shall we buy ice cream when we come?”
“yes. I like strawberry flavor.”
My mom is leaving and I’m getting up to go to the bathroom, but thinking that I’m using my right arm unknowingly, the pain comes.
I don’t have arms, but it’s itchy as if I had arms, and it feels like being bitten by insects.
It’s not because the surgery went wrong.
According to the doctor, it is a neurological problem that occurs when a limb is amputated.
It is that there is a neural network related to the experience of having an arm in the brain, so that it feels as if an arm that does not actually exist exists.
Grinding my teeth, I got up and stood looking in the full-length mirror next to the bed.
By making it look as if there is a missing arm, moving in line with the pain and suggesting that it is with the missing arm, the pain gradually fades.
It’s not completely gone, but it’s tolerable.
Being alone in a hospital room like this is stupid, but… .
Still, I went to the bathroom thinking that it was fortunate that I was sick when my mother was not around.
I think my mom is still there, but it’s frustrating to keep staying in the hospital room.
My stomach is bloated after eating, so I should ask my mother to go for a walk when she comes back.
I turned on the cell phone next to the bed.
At first, I got a lot of calls from my classmates, but of course, Eunseo and other friends still send me messages to tell me about my school progress and ask how I’m doing, but it’s a lot less than the first time.
It’s only natural that I don’t go to school, but… .
Ban Dantok keeps uploading with notifications turned off.
[By what time do I have to go to the playground tomorrow?]
[It departs at 7, so you should come by 6:50 at the latest.]
[I heard it takes more than 2 hours, but is lunch an in-flight meal? Or go to Japan and eat?]
[It’s 2 hours. Would you like a meal?]
[It’s past 12 o’clock.]
[I’ll give you a meal. But the in-flight meal is not good. Both are snotty and the taste is not good.]
[yes? Then if you ask for one more, will you give me more?]
[See the pig color 2. They say they’ll give you more if you have more, so ask.]
[Is our passport issued, right?]
[You applied for that as a group in April. It arrived long ago.]
[But why not share?]
[I heard from a class 3 friend. I wonder if there are children who will lose it if I share it. It is said that it will be handed out at the airport tomorrow.]
[By the way, is the teacher’s words real? Should I take off my shoes on an international flight?]
[yep. When boarding an international flight, there is a shoe locker in front of you.]
[I put it in there and wear it again when I get off.]
[Everyone, stop teasing me. you know it’s real Taking off your shoes is a joke from the teacher. I don’t have to take them off because I wear them the same as Jeju Island.]
[Ah, Seo Eun-seo, why are you saying that? If you hadn’t told me, Jaewoo Lee would have really taken off his shoes. I missed the fun part.]
Come to think of it, tomorrow is a school trip… .
That’s why everyone seems to be very excited.
envy.
Originally, I would have gone too… .
I was about to leave the room because I thought I would get more depressed if I continued to watch it, but I covered my phone because I thought it would ruin the mood for the kids.
It seems that I made a promise with the teacher.
Waiting two months won’t change anything.
If I had quit a little sooner, the group chat would have come out earlier, and my mother would have suffered less… .
Of course, I don’t blame the teacher.
Because you caught the culprit yourself.
Anyway, the promised deadline is running out, so I’ll be dropping out soon… .
I buried my face in the pillow from the overwhelming depression, but my phone rings.
I saw someone do it and it’s a teacher.
[What are our Minha doing? Did you have a dinner?]
[i ate it… .]
[You look weak. What’s going on?]
[Nothing happened.]
[I’m going to stop by now, is it okay?]
You must be busy with school work, but the teacher always stopped by at least three times a week.
[You’ll be busy because you’re on a school trip tomorrow, but that’s okay.]
[uh? Did you know?]
[I just saw it. You don’t have to worry about me for nothing. You say you’re leaving early tomorrow.]
[So let’s go. Refusal is rejected.]
I was about to reply that it was really okay, but the door opened.
“It has already arrived.”
* * *
Since most of the errors have already been corrected, Mr. Kim could have completed it if he had had a little more time.
“uh? If you really apply that… and! This is how it works. Teacher Kang is a true genius.”
“What is a genius… . So now the theory is complete, right?”
“Yes. The theory seems to have nowhere else to go, but… Is there anyone who can actually use magic according to this theory? It requires a lot of mana, and the mana arrangement method is quite different from existing magics, so it seems difficult for even S-rank mages to learn it right away.”
Certainly, regeneration magic is not an easy magic.
“I think I can.”
However, I had already mastered regeneration magic two days ago and was waiting for Mr. Kim to complete the theory.
“You think you can? It’s been less than 3 months since Mr. Kang learned magic… .”
“I think I can do it because I am not familiar with existing magic. Shall we try an experiment?”
“An experiment? To experiment with new magic, you must formally apply for research to the Ethics Committee of the Wizards Association and obtain clinical permission.”
“Isn’t it okay if we don’t do animal experiments or recruit clinicians?”
“It is, but… So how do you experiment… ?”
“Then you’re saying that self-testing is okay, right?”
“Now, a self experiment? Teacher Kang, please… .”
I thought it would stop me if I talked, so I made a river and cut off my little finger.
“Kyaaak! What are you doing, Mr. Kang?”
Oh, even though I cut just one word, it hurts so much.
When I practiced with Luciel, there was no pain because Luciel cast a sense block spell… .
“If it doesn’t work, Mr. Kim can attach it. I’ll try it.”
When the regeneration magic was used, the blood stopped with the green light, and the bones began to grow and the flesh began to cover.
It was a bit gross, but it quickly returned to its original state.
“go… Mr. Kang?”
“It works too. I’m fine. The power goes in well.”
When I showed him that he was fine by moving his fingers, Mr. Kim’s eyes widened to the size of a bell.
“I… Are you really okay? Can I touch it?”
“Yes, feel free to touch it.”
He comes over with a surprised expression and touches my finger here and there.
“really… I’m fine.”
“Yes, it is a complete success. Then I’ll clean that up because it’s ugly.”
Sammae evolved and burned the severed finger.
“I thought it would take at least three months to actually succeed even after completing the theory… . If this is summarized as a thesis and published, this year’s Nobel Prize in Magic will be Mr. Kang.”
There is such a prize as the Nobel Magic Prize.
“There are awards like that. I haven’t really thought about it. I didn’t make it alone, so we should receive the award together.”
“No, I haven’t done anything. All the theories were made by Mr. Kang.”
“The first theory was completely messed up. I would never have been able to complete it without Mr. Kim’s help. So, if you are going to present it as a paper, you should do it as a co-author.”
“I can’t do that. It’s not me, but other wizards can do it enough… .”
“I don’t think so. Even if there is a reason why we shouldn’t be together… ah! Are you afraid that it will be known that you are the vice-principal’s daughter?”
“There are teachers I know anyway, and it doesn’t really matter, but I really didn’t do too much… .”
“Ah, then there is no problem. If you feel burdened, I will ask Professor Kim to arrange the thesis and present it.”
“I can organize it, but Mr. Kang is the one who makes the presentation…” . And anyway, the co-authors… .”
“If you keep doing that, I won’t announce that theory!”
“Yes?”
“I suffered together, but how can I be the only one who gets the award? I am not such a bad person.”
“ah… OK. Then I will prepare the thesis diligently and do my best in the presentation.”
Ugh, it would have been really difficult if I said I wouldn’t do it until the end, but I’m glad I did.
“there… Then I’ll be on my way.”
“Already? It’s a monumental day, so go out and have a meal. I will live.”
“I’d love to, but you know why I made this magic?”
I didn’t learn regeneration magic to win the Nobel Prize for Magic.
“Yes. I’m so excited… .”
“it’s okay. It just so happens that tomorrow is a school trip, so I’m really glad.”
“Ah, I see. Then, I will also prepare to announce it as soon as Mr. Kang returns to Korea.”
I said goodbye and left the health room.
I immediately cut off my pass and drove to the hospital where Min-ha was.
I was thinking of calling him on the way, but I wanted to surprise him, so I texted him when I arrived at the hospital.
Looking at the reply, why is it that I have less strength than usual.
When I asked, he said he saw the kids talking about their school trip tomorrow on Dantok.
They told me not to come because I have to leave early tomorrow, but I can’t.
[So let’s go. Refusal is rejected.]
I sent a message and immediately opened the door to the hospital room.
“It has already arrived.”
“Teacher?”
“Good evening. Isn’t your mother here?”
“It’s okay if you don’t come… . Mom has gone to eat.”
“I see. That’s great.”
I approached Minha.
“Are you okay? Stand, sir?”
“I had some time left until the day I promised, but I’ll try to keep it sooner.”
“I… Hey, I don’t think this is a bit. I told you last time that I don’t like marriages out of sympathy. And I’m still underage and I’m not married, so if you do this… .”
He talks with a face that is completely red like a carrot, and he is eating a whole bowl of kimchi soup.

Just-
“Ouch! Sir, I am a patient… .”
A disciple who thinks outrageous is punishment.
“You are my student before you are a patient! Stop talking like dog poop and close your eyes because the teacher will give you a present.”
“A gift? If you want to kiss something… .”
It got weird when he was only in the hospital.
When asked if he wants to get hit again, he closes his eyes.
I used regeneration magic toward Min-ha’s arm, whose eyes were tightly closed.
The green light spreads and the arm regenerates.
“there… Teacher, that arm feels… uh?”
It’s because of the sense of being regenerated, so I open my eyes without even telling them to.
“west… Sir, how the hell is this… ? Aren’t I fantasizing?”
“Well, I can see it in the teacher’s eyes. If you don’t believe me, why don’t you move?”
He immediately opened and closed his hands, and then moved his arms.
“How is it, is it still a fantasy?”
“This, this… Isn’t that a dream?”
Earlier it was a fantasy, but this time it’s a dream.
“Is it like a dream? Then, wouldn’t it be possible to know if I get hit by one more night?”
“Oh, no. I really really lost my arm again… .”
She suddenly hugged her and her clothes were damp as if she were crying.
It was never a good feeling, but I patted my back without pushing it away.
“Sorry for making you wait so long. And thank you for trusting me and waiting for me.”
“Sir, sir, really… thank you.”
Even though I keep trying to soothe him, he keeps crying and saying thank you over and over again.
“If you’re thankful, stop crying and quickly pack your things. There’s a lot to prepare for the school trip tomorrow, right?”
