The first day of the tournament went by.
"Hey.....did you hear that rumour?"
"What?"
The whispering gossip amongst the student intensified whenever they were in the cafeteria.
"That rumour about the 'Colder than ice king.'"
"Oh....you meant senior Sorrel? What about him?"
"Apparantly he is more approachable now a days. The air around him has changed and others have been receiving well....they have been seeing him smile more often these days."
"Eh...is that true? Really?"
"Psst. This morning I just walked by him and greeted him. Guess what? Senior also greeted me back with a slight smile. His usual cold face was brimming with a blinding halo when he revealed that dangerous smile. Its true that he has become friendlier now."
"Eh? But when I look at him he still has that usual cold face."
"That's because you haven't seen him smile. Once you do you will be shocked for your dear life."
The gossiping continued amongst them.
"Could it be something to do with Lord Ansel?"
"Who knows but that's probably not the case I think."
"Senior Sorrel smiles more often when he is with Commander Hitty and senior Lytch than with Lord Ansel."
The cafeteria instantly quieted down when they saw the topic of their gossip enter the hall. Their stares followed where the person was, curiously peeking at that person.
The pairs of eyes falling on their senior widened when a few of the students greeted Senior Sorrel brightly. The other person also greeted them back politely, a slight smile blooming on his beautiful face.
Everyone who were seeing that smile for the first time froze. When a rare beautiful flower blooms the onlookers are immediate to get hooked on its beauty because it seldom blooms, catching the attention of those who saw its rarity at the appex. That was the kind of smile they were witnessing right now. Sorrel Inaha was a lone wolf. He was cold and withdrawn. It wasn't that those who saw him disliked him. With lovely red eyes and pale skin, his snow white hair, a face as if crafted by the gods there was no way those who saw him didn't wanted to be close to him. Infact they did tried to get close to him when he was brought back to the academy but because of how reserved and unresponsive the person was they gave up hope. Unlike Aouli who was easy to approach and befriend Sorrel had build walls around him that forbade others from invading his personal space. Even then they never disliked this beautiful person. They stopped trying to befriend him but that didn't mean they hated him. However now the lone wolf was smiling at those students, it was as if they were being treated specially by him. Those who saw it couldn't help but feel envious when Sorrel greeted them back. When the others saw this they couldn't help but wish they would garner the same reaction from this beautiful, mysterious senior of theirs.
*Rattle*
"G.....good day senior Sorrel."
One of the guys who have been actively gossiping about the white haired beauty stood up greeting Sorrel. He even stood up giving his seat to his senior.
Ivar thanked him as he sat down placing his tray on the table. Well..... Making friends wasn't that hard. For him to complete the mission all he had to do was give them fake smiles and some pleasantry. Although he knew that the bond friendship was something deeper at least being in good terms with those around him helped him accumulate a lot of points. Lytch was probably the only person who could be considered as a friend for now.
