octanollSSR [Your Teacher is Here] Figaro's card story + card epi, translated by Nomi.
The Feelings of a Teacher and His Student
It is a beautiful day.
While strolling, I find Mitile and Figaro wearing their practice outfit in a corner of the courtyard.
Figaro: Mitile, there's no need to rush into it. You can get better bit by bit.
Mitile: But...
Mitile seems down, hanging his head.
Figaro is trying to cheer him up.
Seems like something happened during their practice.
Sage: Are you two alright? Did something happen?
Figaro: Master Sage.
Mitile: ...Master Sage.
I asked them and they explained that their practice today was flying on a broom while pretending to carry a wounded person.
This was not their first time doing this exercise, but Mitile did not do too well in it before. Still, he was enthusiastic to try again today.
Mitile: So then, we practiced by having Doctor Figaro riding behind me but...
[Flashback]
Mitile: Ortonik Sealsispilce!
Figaro: That’s good. You’re balancing well this time.
Mitile: Yes! Go towards the forest like this...
Mitile: Uwah, a gust...!
Mitile: Not yet...! I can balance myself back!
Figaro: Yes, calm down and approach it like that. Make sure to read the wind’s movement.
Mitile: Yes!
Mitile: The wind...! Ugh, I’m falling...!
Figaro: Possideo
Figaro: Haha, the wind is enthusiastic today, just like you, Mitile.
Mitile: T-thank you. Um, can we try again? This time I’ll be sure to...
Figaro: You were able to regain your balance earlier. But, you must be tired.
Figaro: Let’s try this again another time.
Sage: (I see. Mitile is down about that.)
Mitile: Is there no hope of growth for me?
Figaro: No way! You don’t have to worry, you’re growing every day, Mitile. That’s why there’s no need to rush.
Figaro: There’s no need to be able to do everything right away. Mitile, you have a pace that suits you. Be patient and work hard bit by bit. Okay?
Figaro tries to cheer up Mitile with a bright tone to his voice.
However, Mitile must think that Figaro is treating him like a child. Usually, Mitile is lively, but right now he has down-turned eyebrows.
Mitile: You’re too soft on me... Can I ever be a wizard who fights alongside you, Doctor Figaro?
Sage: Ah, Mitile...
[Corridor to the rooms]
Sage: Figaro. Is Mitile not coming out?
Figaro: Yeah. He replied, but it seems like he wants to be alone.
After that, Mitile had shut himself up in his room.
Figaro is worried and went to his room, but it seems like he’s not coming out.
Figaro: Being a teacher is hard no matter how long I’ve done it for. I don’t want my student to be in danger, so I always like to play it safe.
Figaro: But because of that, I’ve hurt Mitile’s feelings. That’s why I want to apologize to Mitile but... It’s a little difficult right now.
Sage: (Even though I understand both their feelings, I’m not sure what I can do)
Sage: (I want them to make up but...)
Sage: Mitile didn’t show up for dinner either.
Sage: (Rutile brought him his dinner but... I’m still worried.)
At that, there’s a click at the door.
When I look over, the door cracks open a little, and there’s Mitile, peeking into the hallway.
Sage: (Mitile! I’m glad he’s leaving his room... Eh, but)
Sage: Where are you going with a broom this late at night?
Mitile: Master Sage...! This is... I want to go practice.
Sage: Practice... The broom exercise you did today?
Mitile: Yes... I’m sorry for worrying you. At the time, I felt like a part of Doctor Figaro had given up on me.
Mitile: That makes me sad and I acted up.
Mitile: Besides, I know I can’t help everyone with my power right now, and it hurts me. It’s frustrating.
His voice is small as he hangs his head down.
However, he suddenly looks up, gazing at me with firm eyes.
Mitile: But sulking all the time won't make me grow.
Mitile: That’s why I asked Nii-sama and Leno to help me practice more.
Mitile: I’ll keep working hard so I can be of help to Doctor Figaro and everyone else when it’s important! Please watch me, Master Sage.
Sage: So that’s the case... Got it! I’ll cheer you on, Mitile!
Mitile: Thank you! So then, I’ll be off now...!
Sage: (I wonder if I can do something for Mitile and Figaro... That’s right!)
[Figaro's room]
Figaro: ...
Figaro: Yes, come in.
Sage: Sorry for intruding late at night, it’s me.
Figaro: Hi, Master Sage. Why are you here so late?
Sage: Can I have a little of your time? There’s a place I want to take you to.
[Courtyard, night]
Figaro: The wind feels good today. I’m happy that you invited me to go on a nighttime stroll, Master Sage.
Figaro: ...Oh?
Mitile: Nii-sama, I can keep going! Please let me!
Rutile: Of course! Concentrate on your core, and continue on slowly that way.
Lennox: The higher you go, the stronger the wind will be. Don’t force yourself and fly lower if you have to.
Mitile: Yes...!
Figaro: ...I see. So this is what you want to show me, Master Sage?
Sage: Yes. Weren’t you worried you've hurt Mitile’s feelings?
Figaro: Haha, so you want to tell me it’s alright. How kind of you, Master Sage.
Figaro: Seeing Mitile work so hard means I can’t be complacent as his teacher. If I don’t follow his lead, I might get left behind.
Figaro: Thank you, Master Sage. I’ll try talking to Mitile again tomorrow.
[Corridor to the rooms]
The next day, when Figaro goes to Mitile’s room, I keep a watch over them from a distance.
Figaro: Mitile, good morning. Hey, would you come with me to Central Markets today?
Figaro: I drank a little too much last night. I’m worried, so I’d be happy if I can ride on the back of your broom.
Mitile: ...Really, you drink too much.
Mitile: It’s bad for your health if you drink so much and can’t ride on your broom.
Figaro: Hahaha, it’s just as you say. I’ll be careful.
Mitile: Um. Doctor Figaro, about yesterday...
Figaro: Wait. I have something important to say before that, so please let me.
Mitile: Eh?
Figaro: I’m sorry about yesterday, Mitile. I didn’t respond to your feeling of wanting to work hard.
Mitile: Doctor Figaro...
Mitile: You helped me and I behaved like that too. I’m sorry.
Seeing the two of them, I let out a sigh of relief.
I’m a bit far so I can’t really hear their conversation, but it seems like they’ve made up.
Sage: (I’m glad. I want them to smile together, after all.)
[Courtyard]
Figaro: Well then, we’ll come back in the evening.
Mitile: Ehehe. We’re going to the market with Doctor Figaro riding with me today!
Sage: That’s a good way to show the result of your practice! Have fun, you two!
Figaro: Thank you. I’ll buy you a souvenir as thanks, so I hope you’d be excited about that. Well then...
Mitile and Figaro: We’re off!

A Teacher’s Understanding
Sage: You must be tired from practice today, Figaro. What did you do today?
Figaro: As Mitile wanted, we practiced using a broom with someone riding together with him.
Figaro: We practiced this a lot. Mitile is also able to fly in a stable way now.
Figaro: He can’t do everything perfectly yet. but he’s getting better and is able to do things he couldn’t do before.
Sage: Amazing! Mitile works really hard.
Figaro: He really does. His own effort is important in growing, but so is his teacher’s way of teaching, so I’ve to work hard so I don’t lose out to him.
Sage: The diligent relationship between teacher and student is really admirable. Is there something you keep in mind as a teacher, Figaro?
Figaro: Let’s see. There are a lot of things, but definitely to always smile. I want to seem like a kind teacher.
Figaro: There are people who would learn well with a teacher who keeps a stern face like Oz, but it might scare off someone like Mitile.
Sage: (True, Figaro’s frown has an impact that's different from Oz'...)
Figaro: Other than that, I take things at a relaxed, slow pace. It’s no good to rush either.
Figaro: Magic is something that uses the heart, so go with the student’s pace and not burden it too much.
Figaro: That being said, I’m planning to rest after this. Perhaps you’d like to have some tea with me, Master Sage?
Sage: Ahaha, I’ll be happy too. Let’s have a fun tea party to relieve your heart.
