New Armor And A Mysterious Ring

-----

Through these last five years I lived in fear of grandmother not waking up. However, against all odds, she has lived very long, and continued living further despite her problems with her back, and other things, which I've tried to relieve using Ki Massages and Potions. However, her old age is something I cannot cure, nonetheless, she has been more resilient than I ever expected.

"Look at the young man you've become! You're out for the world, aren't you, ruffian? Make sure to talk me about all the places you'll visit in the future, alright?" Grandmother asked with a bright smile.

"Sure thing, grandma… I'll do. I'll bring you gifts and other things, so make sure to not kick the bucket while I'm off, okay?"

"Heh, I am not going anywhere!"

Grandmother gave me a karate chop in the head, though it was very soft, it felt like her way to tell me she was not willing to die yet, not until she could see where I would go from now on.
