I’m the Only One With a Different Genre chapter 105

105 – The Comedic Resident Begins to Regain Consciousness!

“Ah, ahem… No, I can hear you fine.”

Fortunately, the misunderstanding was easily resolved before everyone’s faces turned pensive. Unable to do anything else, I had to lie back down on the bed to continue the conversation.

“Do you remember what happened before you collapsed?”

“Ah…”

Lian instinctively raised his hand to his forehead at the memory that came to mind. The inside of his nose tingled, as if he was about to sneeze.

However, thanks to having sneezed a few times before, he had developed some resistance, so no sneeze came out. Lian rolled his eyes and spoke.

“Um, yes. I remember.”

“I see. Well then…”

Mucan looked at Lily, Nero, and Noah surrounding the bed and said.

“I would appreciate it if everyone could leave for a moment for the examination.”

“What?”

“But…”

“I will assist from the side.”

Except for Lily, who had some knowledge about treatment, the two were driven out of the medical room. Mucan calmly pulled a chair next to the bed and sat down.

It meant that the conversation was going to be long.

“I heard that the patient has been vomiting blood several times, but when did it start?”

“Ah…”

At Mucan’s words, Lily, who was standing quietly behind him, froze with a stiff expression. Lian scratched his cheek with a troubled face and said.

“Well, if I have to specify a time, it would be from birth? I think it was like that.”

“…So you’ve been in that condition since your memories formed.”

“That’s right?”

Lian remembered his infancy as a reincarnator. So “since memories formed” and “since birth” meant the same thing to him.

But to Mucan, it sounded like “experimented on at a very young age to the point of not having memories.”

“Do you often vomit blood?”

“No, not really. It only happens when I experience a mental shock or when I stub my toe. Oh, well… It may sound strange, but it seems to be a trait of mine…”

“I see.”

With a calm expression, Mucan nodded as if understanding, and Lian’s face relaxed.

“Perhaps it’s due to an extraordinary mental strength that I can control those dreadful things. Vomiting blood when I stub my toe must be because… that’s where the imbalance lies.”

“Finally, someone who understands!”

Though both of them were lost in their own thoughts, there was no one to point it out.

“What were the circumstances when you vomited blood before?”

“Um… It was when I ate something strange without knowing, or when I heard words that felt like a sharp stab in my chest, or when I saw unexpected scenes… I think.”

As they entered the clinic, Lian found herself unintentionally pouring out her story to Mucan.

“How did you hurt your forehead? It looks like you’ve hurt yourself intentionally…”

“Ah.”

Mucan’s accepting attitude made Lian feel like she could honestly tell everything, but there was one thing she couldn’t honestly explain.

“I can’t say that I hit my forehead against the wall because I was overwhelmed with desire… because of that scene with Noah.”

Blushing furiously, Lian began to roll her head restlessly. She couldn’t come up with the right words. And Mucan’s gaze was too intense to continue thinking deeply.

“Well, I had some worries lately, and I guess I did it without even realizing.”

“No matter how worried you are…!”

Lily, who had been keeping her mouth shut from behind, reflexively raised her voice, but eventually closed her mouth at Mucan’s gesture.

“Do you often do this?”

“No, this was the first time.”

“Hmm, can you tell me what’s troubling you? If you let it out, you’ll feel better.”

“Ah, um…”

Lian’s eyes began to roll wildly. Soft… white… and that distinct scene with its raised edges wouldn’t leave his mind. He couldn’t bring himself to say it.

“What, what should I say!”

There was a way to not answer, but it seemed like it would only make him look stranger.

“Worries, worries… different worries…”

Suddenly, Lian remembered the new worry he had recently. Before he could even think about whether that worry fit this situation or not, it slipped out of his mouth.

“Actually… I think I was targeted by the Demon…in the recent attack.”

“..What?”

Taken aback by the unexpected words, Lily couldn’t even let out a gasp and just stared blankly, while Mucan looked at Lian in astonishment.

Once he started talking, his worries poured out one after another. Perhaps it was because both Mucan and Lily were people who would be on this journey together.

“I encountered someone called the Four Kings, and from what I heard, the Demon Army is targeting me and the Nest organization. It’s a situation where being attacked anytime, anywhere wouldn’t be strange, so the stress is piling up, hahahaha!”

Rather than saying “Boss’s new white chest won’t leave my mind,” it was a much healthier and normal content, so Lian smiled satisfactorily.

“I should have told you!”

“Huh?”

Lian’s laughter faltered at Lily’s outburst. Mucan also didn’t stop Lily this time.

After scolding Lian thoroughly, Lily brought Noah and Nero to the room. Noah looked at Lily with a serious expression.

“So… what about Lian?”

“Sigh… this brother always seems to get into trouble.”

Seeing Lily glaring at Lian, countless question marks popped up in Noah’s mind. When Lian stumbled and said the same thing as before, Noah and Nero couldn’t help but get angry.

“He’s really amazing!”

“What if he’s the only one who knows about it?”

“Well.. I was going to tell him after the celebration party. Ah! But first, the party! Let’s go quickly!”

“Right now, that’s what’s important…”

“I’m feeling better now! Right, teacher?”

As Lian looked earnestly at Mukan, Mukan, who was chewing on herbs with his arms crossed, glanced towards Lian’s stomach.

“Well, he doesn’t seem to be in bad condition.”

They still couldn’t figure out the treatment method, and they couldn’t examine it closely as it was blurred, but they could tell that the condition wasn’t bad.

“At least he doesn’t seem like he’s about to die.”

In the brutal land of the Demon King, unless it was a situation where they were about to fall down and die immediately, there were hardly any cases where they lay in a hospital room. For that reason, Mukan readily agreed to Lian’s request.

“Well, I suppose you could say that.”

“Look! Come on, let’s go!”

The three of them wanted to lay Lian on the bed, but because Mukan, who had treated him, said it was okay, they had no choice but to head to the party hall together.

“We were planning a surprise party…”

“But that’s not important right now, is it?”

Lily said with a disappointed tone, and Noah felt the atmosphere lighten.

“Yeah, that’s the problem.”

Lian has some strange power. When he’s around, everything feels like it’s not a big deal. Even problems that were pouring out blood or the fact that the Demon Army was targeting the Nest all felt like they were nothing.

It was because of the comedy filter and Lian’s relaxed atmosphere, but Noah had no way of knowing that.

Lian changed into clothes stained with blood in the middle and headed to the restaurant with the three of them.

“Congratulations, boss!”

As Noah entered the noisy party venue, the heavy atmosphere he had just experienced dissipated like a feather. Despite feeling overwhelmed by this fact, Noah’s mind cleared as he faced everyone’s laughter.

“I promised I wouldn’t make the same mistakes as in the past.”

Recalling his past self, who was immersed in his emotions and unable to protect anything, Noah firmly held onto his sanity. Suddenly, with a resolute gaze, she looked at Lian.

“Let’s face each other properly and have a conversation. If there’s anything you don’t know, just ask.”

She couldn’t continue to mourn and be ignorant forever. While Noah was determined, Lian was being held by Jess.

“Joonim, this is delicious!”

Like a predator bringing its prey, Jess brought all the delicious food he had tasted and placed it on Lian’s plate.

“Jess, it was in your mouth.”

“Huh?”

When Lian picked up the napkin on the table, Jess instinctively leaned his face towards her. Looking at the face that was getting closer with lowered eyes, Lian thought to herself.

“Long eyelashes.”

As Jess gently wiped her lips, her soft lips pouted. Her lips were shiny from the oily food. Unconsciously, Lian found herself staring at Jess’s lips, which were slightly open. Quietly closing his mouth and lowering his eyes, Jess had already matured into a very s*xy…

Smack!

“Huh?! Joonim?!”

“Oh, um. It’s nothing.”

Lian touched her face with her right hand and lightly waved her left hand to reassure him. Astonished, Jess perked up his ears and asked.

“Why, Joonim? Why did you hit me?”

Wanting to confirm Lian’s face, which was beginning to turn red, Jess grabbed her face tightly.

“Uh? Wait, Jess!”

“My cheeks are turning red!”

“No, um…could you just step back a little?”

As Lian’s body gradually moved back, Jess’s face quickly came closer. When their eyes met Jess’s animal-like pupils, Lian’s body froze like prey caught in the jaws. The moment when their breaths felt so close, as if they could be distinctly felt.

“Move aside.”

“Heh!”

With a familiar voice, Jess’s body flew backward. Jess gracefully spun in the air and landed on the ground in a perfect posture.

“Oh!”

“Did Jess play a trick?”

“Impressive!”

With Jess’s sudden prank, people applauded. Meanwhile, Iris, who had approached Lian, naturally sat on Lian’s lap with the face of a haughty noble lady.

“Hey, Iris?”

“Yeah? What’s up?”

Iris looked up at Lian with a gentle, relaxed face. Even with an expressionless face, her lovely smile was so captivating that it made Lian’s heart flutter.

“…It’s nothing.”

“Yeah.”

Now that Iris had grown up, Lian couldn’t say anything about her sitting on his lap anymore, but…the words that he wanted to say so badly rose up to his throat and disappeared when he met her sparkling gaze.

“Oppa, ah-“

“Ah…”

Lian shed a tear as he ate the food Iris fed him.

“Just the other day, I was the one feeding her…”

Note: “Oppa” is a Korean term used by females to address an older brother or a male friend who is older than them.

Lian was deeply moved as Iris showed filial piety towards her.
