Despite spending almost all of my money in just a single day, I was rather happy with the outcome. All of the resources that I required for crafting, furnishing and experimenting in my tower were either delivered to my room in a storage ring or waiting to be received in respective shops.
With only a few days remaining before the duel, I could only focus on a limited amount of matters. Done with gathering the materials, I turned my attention back to my fighting prowess.
Being in possession of the mage's stick, I could save a lot of mana while practising my spells, yet for the sake of keeping them just my ace, I refrained from training them. No matter if I would like to continuously cast them in my room, designated training area or even in the outskirts, all possible places bore the risk of being monitored by the forces that I would be using those skills against!
