Ryo’s siblings and other kids from the village approach Tamahiko asking him to tutor them again. While Tamahiko is in the middle of a lesson, Ryo appears, who, with the excuse of cooking something for the kids, takes Yuzuki to the kitchen to have a conversation. Inspired by the tutoring, Tamahiko writes to his father asking to be allowed to return to school. Later, Ryotaro reveals that he is undecided about an offer received.
