"Hi, I'm Silver" there sat a smiling Silver while looking at Will.
"...." Will didnt respond. ' Why is Silver talking with me ? I didnt design Silver to be such an open character who would approach other people.....'
"You know it's rude when you dont reply when people talk to you" Silver's smile widened.
"Oh...Hi I'm Will." Will replied and then looked again in the front and away from Silver to show politely that he was not interested in talking. 'What is happening ?'
"So you're a mage ?" Silver responded again.
"Huh....yeah. How do you know ?" Will blurted out.
' Why is he talking so much ? This is not the Silver I created....Silver doesnt approach random people..... What is happening?'
"Haha, Your hands dont have any calluses, so it means you dont wield a weapon. It means youre either a healer or a mage. If you would have been a healer, you would have been famous in the academy, but youre not.... So it leaves only mage." Silver had a smile of victory on his face.
"Haha true. No wonder youre Rank 1. You shouldnt be talking with bottom rankers like me you know ?" Will said it directly to make sure Silver understood that he doesnt want to talk with him.
'S**t, If this continues, people may think we are friends and even I'll be targetted by those Haughty arrogant masters.....'
"Haha, Difference in ranks doesnt mean we cant be friends no ?" Silver blurted.
'What the ? Silver is not dumb to not understand that i dont want to talk.....Wait, it must be the damned system of his...'
"True True" Will smiled at him and then quickly turned his head to Tracy, who was still blabbering on and on.....

Silver was resting after his sword training.
"Phew. I feel increase in my sword proficiency bit by bit. All thanks to the system." Silver swiped the sweat that was on his body with a towel.
"But today was definitely interesting" He smiled.
While Tracy was taking attendance, Silver was lost deep in his thoughts.
He then heard Tracy shouting a rank twice.
"Rank 1178" , then boom the door opened with a loud bang and came a black haired blue eyed boy.
Because Silver was lost in his thoughts he had not heard the guy's name when Tracy had called it.
'Oooh Miss Tracy is smiling. That guy screwed up big time. Haha'
He was about to go in his day dreaming again, when he heard a Ding sound in his mind.
'Seems like a new mission has been given to me by my system. Open mission tab.'
And there was it - 'Mission - Befriend Will'.
He became wide-eyed. Befriending mission ?
Silver had received such missions only thrice till now.
They were to be friends with White, Emily and Nora.
Out of all the people in the academy whom he had seen, these type of mission only had activated thrice till now - for those 3.
Friending those 3 was easy really - he became friends with White through his spars.
Since Nora was his girlfriend he became friends with her too and since Emily was her sister, he had become friends with her too.
Silver knew those 3 were famous and thus understood that system only gave these missions for important and powerful people. People who could help Silver further his strength. People who could help him on his future missions and journey.
'Hmm...Who is this Will ?'
He then heard Tracy calling the blue eyed guy "Mister Will".
'Really ? Rank 1178 ? And the system wants me to befriend him ?' Silver narrowed his eyes.
'Well if the system has given me this mission, then he must be important for my goals....I guess'
He then saw "Will" come towards him and sit beside him.
'Wow.....This mission would be easy. I'll be friends with him today only. Haha.'
He then started conversing with Will.
But Will was not interested at all in talking with him. At first Will gave passive signals to Silver that he didnt want to talk.
But Silver kept trying and then Will directly said that he should not talk with low rankers like him.
'Wow... this mission may be much tougher than I think... but it's fine. Just you wait Will.... If the system wants me to be friends with you , I would definitely be friends with you...To fulfil my future goals....'
Silver tightened his fist and then again began his sword training.

---------------------------
Will was on his bed.
He had just taken a shower after his usual "pain bearing" ceremony of taking a vitality pill.
'Pretty sure that the system must have given Silver a mission to befriend me....'
'But how is this possible ? I only wrote 3 of such missions - for him to be friends with the other 3 MCs..... Has the system recognised me as an abnormality ?'
'But I designed the system and I wrote the book and since there was no WIll character in it , there was no such mission that I gave to Silver.... '
'Butterfly effect surely works damnit. But this creates a problem. This means that a lot of things may change from the novel, which would reduce my advantage of the future knowledge I have...'
'I guess then it is for the best that i do minimum interference in the storyline.....' With this he slept.
