Novel Full Chapter 374 The Night Before The War
( Dombivli City )
Walking through Dombivli city’s teleportation gate was Benedict Divinorum. The man who faced defeat at the hands of Max back on Earth.
Ever since his loss against Max he had been obsessed with seeking revenge and had worked extremely hard to raise his strength to tier4 and try and seek revenge against Max.
He was the rising star of humanity before his downfall began, as he thoroughly blamed Max for his fall from grace.
He had shown up in Dombivli City with one clear purpose, which was to participate in the upcoming war and wait for his chance to launch a sneak attack on Max.
With a bounty of 25 million gold coins placed on his head by the Kingsman clan, Benedict not only wanted to kill him, but also become rich in the process.
Benedict knew that within the next 1-6 months a war should embroil Dombivli and he planned on waiting patiently till that fateful day came.
” Even if I die, I won’t let you live… ” Benedict murmured as he found a room inside a motel and lodged in.
To kill Max he had secured a secret weapon which guaranteed the death of a target while being fuelled by the users soul force.
It was Benedict’s last resort, as using it would not leave him Alive to tell the tale, but he was still willing to use it if his back was against the wall.
Such was his hate for Max.

( Meanwhile Max )
” This is it guys, we have already procured all the basic weaponry and potions we need for this war.
Our plan is set, our ships are fuelled, our men are trained and their morale is high.
I think we are ready to start the fight tomorrow…. ” Max said as he stared at the complicated drawings on the city map of Dombivli.
For the last 3 days, he was constantly analysing war tactics alongside his group, and after a lot of critical thinking they finally had a detailed plan of action.
” The Kingsman clan are dastardly, Roy doesn’t deserve to be a lord, I think us winning this war will do more good to the commoners than the Kingsman winning will do.
Since we are on the nobler side of this fight, I’m sure the gods will help us win” Anna commented as Sebastian immediately scoffed.
” U should know better than anyone Anna, just how god’s really are.
They are not noble and surely not on the right side of history.
If we win tomorrow we shall win for Asiva, for the injustices that she has suffered at their hands.
If we win tomorrow we shall win because of Severus’s scouting.
If we win tomorrow we shall win because of Max’s strength and planning.
If we win tomorrow it will be because of the blood that my sword shall spill
If we win tomorrow it will be because of the destruction your arrows will bring.
If we win tomorrow….. it will because the cowardice is with us ” Sebastian said as he looked into Max’s eyes and smiled.
” May the cowardice be with you ” the duo said at once, as they shook hands like gentlemen.
*Knock knock*
A knock interrupted Max’s moment of bromance with Sebastian, as Asiva quickly hid the war plans and said ” come in ”
Christian Grey walked into the room wearing a concealer mask and a hood as he scanned the room slowly before locking his eyes on the clone ‘ Max ‘ who sat in the corner of the room.
The clone chuckled as he waved his fingers at Christian in acknowledgement of his presence but did not get up to exchange greetings.
” Hello Captain Ravan” Christian Grey eventually said as he tried to approach Max, however, his advance was stopped by an invisible force.
” It’s okay Zippo…. He’s a friend ” Ravan muttered as Christian Grey felt his shadow leave his body as his freedom of movement was restored.
Christian was bewildered as he scanned the room, but found no traces of the invisible man.
Being a tier1 human, his detection abilities were not enough to see through a powerhouse like Zippo.
” Thanks to your cooperation captain, I’ve made quite the fortune. It’s regrettable that this partnership is coming to an end so soon, ” Christian said, as he recovered quickly from his stupor.
” Well, all good things have to come to an end eh?
You have enjoyed it enough for the last 3 months, now it’s time to pay the price… ” Ravan spoke as Christian nodded ｂ𝚍𝚘𝚟ｌ.ｎｔ
” 120 ships, capable of carrying a total of 250,000 soldiers are only five minutes away from the Paratus capital, ready to leave at a moment’s notice.
Whenever I receive the signal from you or Max, I shall arrive immediately ” Christian said as Ravan nodded solemnly.
” All preparations on our side are complete as well, prepare for take off in 6 hours ” Ravan said as he purposefully glanced towards the clone ‘ Max ‘ for approval.
The clone nodded, playing along in this game of charades which kept Christian guessing as to who was the real boss between the two.
Unable to figure it out, he could only smile helplessly as he said ” Well see you around Maxie, goodbye Captain, you have a lovely girlfriend”
Asiva smiled brightly at the praise as her impression of Christian improved significantly.
However, considering that the war was going to start in 6 hours, the overall atmosphere in the room remained quite solemn.
This war was not going to be easy and everyone was going to be tested to their very limits.
The outcome of the war was extremely important for all members of the group for various reasons, but all the more so for Max, for whom this was the start of his journey to become king.
Although they had prepared sufficiently, victory was not a certainty and there was a huge risk of losing one’s life.
Win or lose, tomorrow was going to be the biggest and most important fight in the group’s history.
