While working out on a plan of attack, Max also heavily focused on his training within the mirror world against his own self.

In the past few weeks, his progress had been remarkable and he could now injure his clone to about 90% HP everytime in a fight.

While this may not seem like a lot, it was a massive improvement for Max who could not even scratch his perfect self until a few weeks ago.

At Least now, he was at 10% his full potential at this tier.

Apparently, while he was busy in Greensoil, Mira had broken through to tier4 and started to level up again as Max became close to reaching the peak of tier3 at level 297 himself.

Max knew that his daily training had lagged a lot and that despite having a high level, he was far from stat maximisation, it felt good to know that even though he was buried in paperworks and not training, he was still improving because of his soul bond with Mira.

Uptil now Max had no solid ideas about how to solve the issues surrounding his army and his plan of attack, and he was at his wits end with these matters as well as he realised the importance of having wise counsellors and trusted men around him who could solve these issues for him.

Asiva was busy training and re-organizing the old Paratus army troops daily and did not involve herself in the decision making process at all, whereas Sebastian was borderline useless to seek advice from.

In this situation the only person Max could genuinely seek advice from was Anna as he found himself frequently having long chats with her about work.

Anna was different from Asiva in the sense that she was not a bloodthirsty warrior and was not aggressive.

She was much calmer, much more bubbly and much less aggressive.

While Asiva was like a fiery beauty, Anna was like a simple schoolgirl, and in these troubling times she provided Max with some very sound advice, hence, Max decided to seek her out today as well to talk about the issue surrounding landing in Dombivli City.

Because only after having a clear landing strategy, knowing how many troops may potentially die while trying to land, could Max then calculate how many soldiers he would need and what battle plan he would take.

Hence the first and the most important issue that needed to be solved was landing.

Max walked from his quarters to Anna's, as he politely knocked on her door and requested permission to enter.

After a while, he heard a muffled ' Come in ' as he immediately felt weird upon entering the room.

One quick scan and Max could notice that Anna had hastily put on her robes. They were awkwardly hanging from her shoulders at an odd angle.

There was a sour smell in the air which smelled like something familiar to Max, although he knew what it was for a moment his brain crashed thinking about it.

Max looked at Anna's bed, there was a slight moistness on the bedsheets and Anna herself looked completely flushed having laborious breathing.

Max's dirty mind connected all the dots and immediately a deep blush appeared on his face as he lowered his gaze and stood there awkwardly.

While his face was thankfully covered by a mask, Anna could see the apple red earlobes of Max.

Seeing those she realised that Max knew what had transpired in this room just moments ago and hence her own embarrassment doubled.

A part of Anna was horrified as it felt like Max would view her as a lewd woman now, while another part wanted to desperately see his reaction, to discover his reaction to this side of her personality.

The two of them stood there in awkward silence for a full 2 minutes as the moment Max raised his gaze to meet Anna's, he scanned her beautiful slender legs and pink lips

When their eyes eventually met, he could see the fervent passion inside them as he coughed and felt his heartbeat quicken

" I need some counselling if you are free " Max said, avoiding eye contact

Anna was silent for a while, the shine in her eyes faded as she realised that Max was back to his courteous self, as she too reigned in her emotions and then replied in a firm tone " Sure, just let me go wash my sticky hands "

Max said nothing, as Anna quickly went to wash her hands and came back with her clothes fully adjusted as she sat across Max and said " What do you want advice on? "

Max felt slightly disappointed about this tone of Anna's, but he brushed it off as he entered business mode and said "Landing"

" We need to figure out how to land on the capital properly, I have thought about it a lot, but I can't seem to figure it out

To counter their weapons we will need frigate class and destroyer class battleships, ships that are national secrets of every manufacturing clan.

Even if we give them all our wealth we won't be able to buy one, when we need at least a dozen

We go there in transportation ships and we will be toast " Max said as he emphasised on the issue of landing

Anna listened to his rambling patiently and then very silently suggested " I think since we cannot go in openly, we should try to sneak in "

Max closed his eyes and rolled his head " I cannot sneak an army in, it's no longer the 4-5 of us trying to save Asiva

There is simply no way we can bring an army of 500,000 sneakily into a city.

Even if we start sneaking in 500 soldiers a day, it will take us 1000 days just to get the whole army there and by that time we would have created a housing crisis and refugee crisis.

It's not viable "

Anna pursed her lips as she said " For the sake of argument, let's just say we were to do it sneakily and it's not you who's doing it, it's your brother.

How would Shakuni sneak in an army of 500,000 into a city?

I'm sure the mastermind strategist you claim he was, he could solve this problem"

Max's chest swelled in pride as he said " My brother? I don't know how would probably do something crazy but he would pull it off.

If it were him, he probably would ..... "
