Chapter 31：Revealing the name

*Buzz* Mobile is ringing.

"Yes, Aster." Williard picked it up while reading the update details and confirming it with what he knows.

"Young master, is it about time?"

Williard smiled, "it looks like you got it. Yes, right after the maintenance is over, I'm returning to the East Ocean city. You spread the news all over the city about me."

Aster then asked, "got it. By the way, does young master wishes to expand the guild?"

Williard replied, "no way. Except for 52 of us, no one is allowed to join Scarlet. I'm revealing myself only for those people who are still wondering. As soon as my name is revealed in the rankings, they will contact you. If they don't, you should contact them.

Arrange a meeting at Moonlight restaurant. I'll give them one hour. No representatives will be allowed. They must come in person. I don't care what are busy with. Tell them those who failed to arrive won't be considered as our allies."

"Got it, Young master."

Then, Williard once again asked, "by the way, how much gold have we collected so far?"

Aster replied, "156 gold, sir. we have spent almost 25 million on it. There's only 3.8 million left in your card."

Williard asked, "good. And how much limit in dad's credit card, left?"

Aster replied, "33.1 million."

Williard thought for a while and said, "start purchasing with dad's card then. Use 15 million credits and buy however much you can, in the next 5-6 hours after entering the game."

After disconnecting the call, Williard smiled, "before the update, once Imperial guild collapse, Scarlet will decide who will be the ruler."

...

Gwangchon city;

A young man of around 25 years old, who looks pretty much like an easterner, was sitting before the computer and reading the details of the upcoming update, "time is reduced by half? I guess the next one day will be complete chaos with everyone trying to level up..."

*buzz* *buzz*

"Hello?"

"Gong Jiahao, This is Shadow Blade."

"I'm waiting for your call," Jiahao replied while looking a bit tense.

"So, are you ready?" Aster asked him.

Jiahao a.k.a Red Dragon, former Vice leader of Imperial Guild replied, "yes, I'm done with preparations on my side but..."

Aster interrupted him, "I know what you are thinking. But, don't think of what is Young master's plan and just focus on the job you are given.

Once the maintenance is finished, all of you must leave the guild at once and proceed to Greenreed street. There, "White Walker" will receive you and invite you to their guild.

After joining the guild, just don't do anything and stay there silently without responding to any messages for the next two hours. After that, we will proceed with the annihilation of Imperial. We won't force you to participate but you can help out with convincing your guildmates to leave the guild."

"I understand," replied Jiahao as he disconnected the call.

...

As the maintenance is finished, everyone entered their capsules and found themselves in an empty white space. They started waiting as the pause time is going on.

Like everyone, Williard entered his S-grade capsule and logged in.

*Welcome to War Online*

As the pause time is over, the gameplay is resumed for everyone.

Just then, the system made a world-wide announcement.

*New wild zone has been opened. Since the cities are in the kingdom aren't connected, they can enter the new level 101-200 wild zone through the portal constructed at the Great Wall*

Williard, who was near to the Wall saw a Giant portal was built in the middle of the Wall, quite near to the prison that holds Cereberus.

"Before advancing to 2*, there's no use for me to go into it unless the materials I need are in there. Anyway, there are still 36 hours left until the update. I should proceed to the Mayor, first. No, wait a second. I think I should go into the wild first."

Williard immediately flapped his wings and dashed towards the portal and entered it.

As he found himself on the other side, he received a notification.

*Congratulations, you discovered the Nefarus wild zone. You are awarded 500 fame*

After he absorbed the leftover fame into the nobility that was almost filled, Williard broke out into a smile, "with this, my total fame is 16000. Now, all I need 1000 more.

Once I hand over the necklace to the Mayor, I'll finally meet one of the requirements. All that's left to drag out the Mayor but it will have to wait until I get to meet the king."

He turned around and exit the wild zone and returned to the level-100 zone and then opened the city rankings.

Williard clicked on his name.

Name: Unknown

Level: 100

Guild: Unknown

Reveal: on/off

As he changed to on, his name description was changed to Time Traveler and the guild name changed to Scarlet.

1) Time Traveler- Level 100

2) Flame Emperor - Level 89

3) Snow Dew - Level 87

4) Supreme Master - Level 77

5) Unnamed - Level 76

6) White Tiger - Level 75

7) Swordmaster- Level 75

8) Heavenly King - Level 75

9) Unnamed - Level 73

10) You can't look at me - Level 73

In War Online, there's no separate option of revealing the name but hiding the guild name or level. Either everything can be masked with items or everything is revealed once someone inspects it except for their class and stats.

Williard once again flapped his wings and proceed towards the city.

...

Level 80-85 zone;

White Tiger and 19 elite adventurers of Imperial guild resumed their leveling and they were looking more aggressive as they started clearing out the common grade mobs.

All of a sudden, someone cried out, "Boss..."

White Tiger frowned as he was interrupted by his underling, "what is it?"

The underling Gunner replied, "look at the rankings. The first ranker revealed himself. You won't believe who he is. It's TimeTraveler. The guy who defeated Dave. He used to be the lowest level..."

White Tiger frowned, "Time Traveler? The guy with an NPC. I even forgot about him after he disappeared for the past three days. I guess that NPC helped him out in leveling? Is she really a hired guard? But that needs him to be a Viscount.

No, he definitely wasn't a Viscount because it need a large amount of fame. Becoming baron might be possible if one gets lucky as it needs 2000 fame but as far as I know, Viscount needs another 6000, which means a total of 8000 fame.

I guess he might have received a large amount of experience to level up that quickly. Damn, lucky fellow."

...

At the same moment, several adventurers from all over the place received private messages from Aster to attend the meeting in one hour that will be held at the restaurant where they get to meet the Young master.
