Unlike his father who follows his advice not to bother his uncle to pick him up, Mrs. Rivers instead insists that her relatives have to fetch him. She keeps asking Stairmount about the time when he departs for Jadeite. In the end, Stairmount is forced to tell Mrs. Rivers, and just as he expects, her relatives send a message that they will fetch him at the terminal while he is on the flying bus.

"Schynn, I am Aunt Ashley. Your uncle can't fetch you because he has some business, so it is me who fetch you."
166Please respect copyright.PENANALqnbmCreVR
Aunt Ashley is Mrs. Rivers' sister-in-law, the one who is closer to him must be his uncle since he is Mrs. Rivers' brother, so that it must be his uncle who fetches him. Stairmount sends a telepathic message. "Ouch, I am so sorry for bothering you, Auntie..." He feels uneasy about bothering them.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA6k7bFsKT0J
Arriving at the terminal, he quickly finds that Aunt Ashley is waving at him, "Schynn! You are Schynn, right?!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAhrrUuOED8y
"Yes, I am. And you, Aunt Ashley?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAIyWuvgIBNG
The woman in her late forties nods. Aunt Ashley is very fashionable, with very elegant makeup as well. Too fashionable and elegant, even Jupiterian people themselves rarely dress like her. She immediately approaches Stairmount, says cheerfully, "That's right, it's you! Gosh, we never met before, huh! I only saw you from the news on the cyber monitor!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAZndHuRS5nl
Stairmount just curves a little smile as response. "How are you, Auntie?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAYKOreBFNnm
Aunt Ashley takes him into her flying car. "Well... not in good condition, Schynn. Your grandma falls sick, so your uncle has to look after her. That's why he can't come to fetch you."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAs0Ub1p09HL
Aunt Ashley presses the button on the dashboard, then the flying car immediately flies rapidly. Stairmount asks, "Grandma falls sick? Of what kind of disease?" Different from his grandpa and grandma from his father's relatives who have passed away, his grandma from his mother is still alive.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAzWMCODRVmk
"The doctor says, Fuxa."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAunppLjEaL9
"Grandma has got Anti-Pathogen?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAekSzMhhjRF
"Yes, so complete. She has even got the specific one, for Fuxa Z. Are you the one who suggests the importance of taking the specific Anti-Pathogen? Your mother always cautions us to follow your advice!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAb7mbllRss9
"Ah, yes..." Stairmount smiles sheepishly. Her mother is sometimes more exaggerated than her father when it comes to being proud of him. Stairmount feels bashful, anyway, since Mrs. Rivers always forces her entire family to absolutely follow his advice in the healthcare sector - just like obeying the order of God.

"But how come somebody can still get Fuxa, they have got complete anti-pathogen, anyway?..." Aunt Ashley looks confused.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAsLCNnQ1OrO
"How is Grandma now?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAGQrAScvHWc
"She feels unwell. Her condition drops day by day. That's why no one dares to leave her alone." Aunt Ashley is mused. "So strange, then what's the benefit of taking anti-pathogens, after all?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAwNSOQXdWjg
"Where is Grandma right now?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAs6qv8ApWcs
"At home, doing self-isolation."
166Please respect copyright.PENANADS2FF6jhgs
"Can you take me there?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAex83nY00kT
"But your grandma is in self-isolation. No one can visit her, you know. And aren't you afraid of getting infected?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAHJidWVeYHW
"Not a big problem. I'm not afraid of Fuxa," Stairmount says reassuringly. "Besides, I've been researching anti-pathogens all this time, the purpose is to help people, then how come I don't use it to heal my own grandmother? It's my duty to heal my own grandmother."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAC5YprCKXRH
"You are a real filial grandson, Schynn. I am so proud of you. Alright! Let's go to your grandma's house!"

Despite being in self-isolation at home, since Stairmount's grandmother is eighty-eight years old, Mrs. Rivers' relatives are worried about leaving her only by herself at home, especially as her condition is getting worse day by day. Mrs. Rivers has two brothers and a sister, including Uncle Alan, her younger uncle, and Uncle Andrew the husband of Aunt Ashley, so the three of them take turns in taking care of her while staying in another room.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAZMqPsssCge
"Has Mom been informed about this?" Stairmount asks as he enters the house.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAxGVOigwMbg
Uncle Andrew nods. "I just told her yesterday."
166Please respect copyright.PENANADImG0OXes2
Stairmount steps into his grandmother's bedroom. The elder woman is surprised as she sees him, "Eh, you?..."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAu11WvzcWlP
"I am Schynn, Grandma," Stairmount replies quickly.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAyFneDDxz6Y
"My goodness, how do you get here?... And, I am now doing self-isolation, don't come in! Or else, you'll get infected!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANANFFuLMXuMg
"No problem, Grandma. I indeed want to examine you." Stairmount takes a seat next to his grandmother's bed. "Well, I'll examine you for a moment, okay?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAG0a6uODkg2
Stairmount soon examines his grandmother, but a moment later, he gawks. "This... is not Fuxa..."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAfUet5LHQ3F
"Not Fuxa? But, the doctor says, Protomoeba Test has shown that this is Fuxa?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA8ifqGjL4Wg
"Are you feeling better after taking the medicine?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANALjUcP6kZ8A
"Eh... it is getting even worse instead..."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAmPrmadZhAB
"It must be... Antivyroxin shouldn't be used in this situation... This... I don't understand what's going on... but it seems that this pathogen will be fiercer if we use Antivyroxin!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAvUgy4gxAV5
*) Antivyroxin = similar to Antibiotics on Earth, but on this Planet the doctors use this to diminish the Pathogens.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA9MVngjLIiS
"Really!?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAdbyr39QSFt
Stairmount comes out of his grandmother's room and immediately approaches Uncle Andrew. "Uncle Andrew, Grandma is not infected by Fuxa!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA6ntldsILFU
"But, the doctor says, according to the results of the Protomoeba Test, this is Fuxa!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAC2WSpR665x
"It does look similar with Fuxa... but the symptoms... it's not the symptoms of Fuxa..."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAe5bQ8LFcCN
"Really!??!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAALNFR3tv0n
"Who's the doctor in charge of Grandma?" Stairmount urges. "I want to ask him."
