It was early in the morning when Scout got a notification that stated that all Shadow Wing members are to gather near the city hall where registrations would happen.

Scout went to the coordinates that was part of the notification, it was tree among many others, and underneath that tree some members of the Shadow Wings were already there waiting. One by one they had slowly gathered. After a few more minutes of gathering, they were all present.

"Okay, I called you guys here because our mission starts now. There is gonna be a couple of NPC's outside of city hall that would register players to join the war, once again, it is crucial that we register our guild. So our mission for today is that we all spread out and we all go to different NPC's this way, our chances of getting registered is high." Silhouette said.

"When will the registration start?" Someone asked

"It will be about 30 minutes from now, so lets move out now, I bet a lot of people are already there waiting." Silhouette stated almost ready to leap and go

Then they all spread and went towards the city hall, the outside of the city hall was so crowded that it was hard to get to the front. But Scout managed to get near the front with the help of his skill Nimble Body.

When Scout got near to the front he had noticed that people could not get past a certain point, its as if there was a barrier holding them back.

"Whats going on here? How come no one is going past that line?" Scout asked a random person in the front

"Apparently theres some sort of barrier that won't allow anyone to get through until registration opens." The stranger replied

"I see, thank you" Scout said and took a slight bow

After 20 minutes had passed, there was a notification stating that registration will begin in 1 minute. The atmosphere began to heighten, everyone wanted to join the war, people were already making enemies out of their own countrymen. The game Ai stated that only 10,000 players on each side could join the war. Of course NPC's would be participating in the war, but that won't count towards the 10,000 players.

After a minute had passed, the barrier suddenly lifted, and from there on out it was hell, people had started to push and shove each other, some would purposely trip other people in front of them trying to increase their chances of participating in the war.

Scout had a different plan, once the barrier was lifted, he quickly shadow stepped in front of one of the NPC's and told him.

"I would like to register my guild, Free Wing Mercenaries"

The NPC was shocked by the sudden appearance of Scout, it took the NPC a second to register Scouts words.

"Ah, I see, how many members?" The NPC asked still with a shocked face.

"300 members" Scout said

"Okay, the guild is now registered and all 300 members can participate in the war"

"Thank you very much" Scout said, but then a Region wide notification fell upon everyone.

Congratulations! Free Wing Mercenary is the first guild to register for the war

Rewards: +300 fame for each member, Guild reputation has increased

Everyone that were trying to bring each other down looked up to see who the first person to register was, but they were too late, Scout had already went into stealth just after the confirmation of their guild registering.

Everyone was shocked it wasn't even 10 seconds before the barrier opened and a guild had already registered. Some people were impressed but most were angry, not only did they want to be first, they were angry because they had thought there was a bug or a glitch in the system, some even claimed hacks. Almost everyone was in an uproar. In just a few minutes the Square One forums were flooded by the sudden "Phantom Registration"

Scout was long gone before the registrations ended, some people were joyous and were celebrating because they had managed to join the war, while the rest were pouting and started going back home.

Scout got a notification to meet back at the same spot where they had all gathered before the registration. He slowly walked there, it wasn't that far away. After 5 minutes of walking Scout got the meeting point, and most of the members were there already waiting. A few more minutes and all 24 members had gathered.

"We did it!" Silhouette cheered raising her arms up high

"YEAH! WOOOOO!" everyone shouted

"Okay, now the question at hand is, who was it that managed to register us? Not only did that person manage to register us, that person managed to register us first!" Silhouette asked.

Everyone did not say anything, no one wanted to claim credit for what they had not done. They were all righteous people. Scout did not want to say anything because it would attract attention, he wanted to keep himself within the shadows.

"Well that doesn't matter, all that matters now is that we managed to register, but our mission doesn't end here guys, we have another mission, we are going to go into enemy territory" Silhouette said

Everyone was confused, they didnt know what that meant, finally someone asked.

"Enemy territory?" A person asked with a  very confused face.

"Yes, we are now to move out towards Isris Kingdom, we will cross the border and do damage from that side. the war won't officially begin until a week from now, it will take about 3 days for everyone participating to mobilize, and 2 days for preparations, and the last 2 days will be taken to march near the border where the war will begin. We will take our 2 days and head directly towards Isris, and we will have 5 days to ourselves in which we will use to become stronger." Silhouette stated

Together they all went towards the border, it took them 2 days riding carriages to get to the border. There was something that they miscalculated, The border was heavily guarded because tensions were high already between Chronos and Isris. But it mattered not to them because they managed to bribe a guard to let them in for 10g per person.

In the real world, Square One main headquarters. Day of the war registration

"Sir, players from Chronos Kingdom are outraged!" A young person with glasses said

"Stop calling me sir and call me Adam, and outraged with what?" Adam replied with a confused look on his face

"After 5 seconds of registration opening, Someone already managed to register" the glasses guy said while trying to catch his breath.

"Thats amazing, why are they mad then?" Adam asked once more

"No one saw the registration happening, when they tried to look, there was no one there, people think it was a bug or a hack."

"Hahahaha! Its impossible to hack this game that I have created, and there is now way that this is a bug, the AI Gaia would directly inform me if any hackings are attempted and bug fixes are immediately implemented the minute that they are found." Adam said while laughing

"But sir"

"Don't worry Dan, it is not a bug, it must be some sort of skill, check the internet and the forums for videos, someone must have caught it in their in game recording footage" Adam said while still laughing at the idea of a hack.

"Okay sir"

"Stop calling me sir" Adam said while placing his palm upon his face.

Present time, In game

The Shadow Wings managed to find an unexplored dungeon after crossing over towards Isris kingdom, it was a perfect location to raise their levels and get stronger. The dungeon was a cave filled with bandits, it was a bandit hideout. They easily managed  the dungeon, since they were all capable of stealth, they utilized it to their fullest. Their plan was very simple, they would go in by waves. They split the group into two. The first group would go into stealth and kill 12 people. Once they killed their 12 people, they would wait for their Stealth to cool down, while they were waiting, the second group would go in with their stealth, it was a cycle that was simple and at the same time effective.

Scout had gotten 6 levels in four days, he would have gotten a bit more if we went solo, but he was in a party and the experience was split evenly, He was now level 62. Inside the cave, Scout managed to pick up some level 2 herbs that he will later use to make level 2 potions.

The Shadow Wings had gotten stronger, most of them had gotten at least 5 levels, they could have gotten more but time was short, The dungeon was bigger than they had thought and their days were up, war was about to begin.

The Shadow Wings was ordered to log off and rest up, because during the war, they won't have anytime to rest.
