Silver and Vil

During Fairy Gala IF Vil instructs Silver to picture something beautiful, saying that even someone like him with no interest in fashion should have at least one or two things they consider beautiful.

At first nothing comes to mind, but then Silver has a realization. Vil asks him what beautiful thing he is imagining, and Silvers answers that it is Vil himself: “When I tried to think of something beautiful, you came to mind right away. I blanked on any other ideas.”

Silver begins Beanfest by promising Lilia that he will not allow anything to happen to Malleus, but the first time we see him he has been cornered by ten members of the opposing team and gets rescued by Vil, having not been able to locate Malleus at all.

Vil and Silver team up with members of Octavinelle who immediately turn on them to steal their supplies. 

Vil rescues Silver a second time by beating down the Octavinelle students who betrayed them and the Savanaclaw students they drafted onto their side.

Vil reveals that he was onto the members of Octavinelle from the start, while Silver says that he “didn’t suspect a thing”.

Silver asks Vil why he helped him while being so suspicious of everyone else and Vil responds “You’re the sort of easy mark that takes anything people say at face value.”

Vil sends Silver to Malles (“Go to him. For my sake as well”), but when they reunite Malleus has fallen to Lilia. 

Lilia is revealed to have been using Silver as bait to attract the other members of the opposing team, who ultimately catches him, saying he is going soft.
