I'm putting 1700 into the skill with the stained-glass window and topping it off with the pistol.

I'll lend you the robes, if you insist. But only if the duel's conditions aren't "winner takes the loser's possessions." And we'll observe the duel, just in case.

Yes, that's what I expected.

Then I'll take the statuette, eat some questionable food at the restaurant, put on A.A.'s clothes (right away, because they probably won't appreciate me suddenly changing clothes), take the pendulum from Frag (hopefully he won't mind lending it for a single use). And we'll go to Nastya.

Just in case – if the robes can't be worn at the same time as the wanderer's cloak, then the cloak can be hung on A.A. for that time (in case unexpected armor calculations are needed for teammates...).

And the rest of the spending – what's left in Ples's post.

The address mentioned in the description turned out to be a rather picturesque place, with a lovely little river flowing nearby and green hills on the horizon. There, sitting by the river and dangling her bare feet in the water, was a young woman whose face resembled one of Goldface’s subordinates.

Seeing Mira and her friends, she waved energetically and smiled sweetly.
— Are you here on assignment?

- Yes, - Mira nodded and pondered where she might have seen her before.

"Dante's ways are inscrutable; throughout my time in the city, I managed to avoid such encounters, but now it has happened," thought Nao, who had come as one of the "seconds."

— Hello!.. Thank you, oh I mean, this is... — The girl was noticeably happy at first, but then suddenly hesitated, not knowing how to explain her errand. — I, in general, well, let's put it this way, I lost my job... No! — Slapping her palms against her face and taking a breath, she continued. — After all, made-up legends just aren't for me! I mean, what I want to say is... Well, not so long ago something happened and I wondered, "are all demons bad, maybe there are some good ones among them?", to which the priest replied that "the only good demon is a dead one," well, he and I talked about it for a bit; I don't even know what came over me, I was answering him in a raised voice. In the end, he gave me some money and advised me to "live a normal life," so I tried to find work in Mediville, but the thing is, I don't know how to do anything except kill, wash dishes, and do laundry; the money ran out quickly, and as for earning more... How can you earn anything here if you've never worked in your life, and at a own advanced age you can't really learn anything new... To be honest, I didn't know what to do anymore, but I was lucky enough to meet a lovely gentleman who offered me a job. At first he suggested, well... — She blushed slightly and her words did not reach the ears of those listening. — ... But something like that is unacceptable for a refined girl, so I refused immediately. And then he offered me to participate in duels in exchange for good money... You know, I've never even seen that much money! — Remembering the reward, she also thought about various foods, which made stars appear in her eyes. — Ah... Well, oh... Sorry, you're probably not interested in all this, so let's just decide: shall we shoot?

Learning the "Kisten" skill 4 times and a crafting skill.

Miroliuba listened to this stream of consciousness with a highly dubious expression.
- So... some gentleman offered you to participate in duels and pay you for it?.. What's the benefit for him? And what does the stated reward of a hundred for completing the task mean - who will pay it and why? It's not as if I need to put up a hundred of my own to make it worthwhile.

— Hey, those guys, what are they called... sponsors? Anyway, when we're battling, there will be viewers, and I understand they chip in and pay the winner.

- What are the rules of the duel?

"You know, I don't fully understand them myself; there's just too much unfamiliar terminology. But that kind gentleman suggested that my potential opponents might be interested in the rules of this event and left me a note with detailed information."

Location and Time
- After the duel agreement is concluded, the esteemed guests will be notified of the upcoming event.
- The duel will be held at a time convenient for the esteemed guests (before the main quest).

Prize
- The winner of the duel will receive a generous reward of 100 gold + 10 gold for each time their opponent returns to life using a healing potion or a similar effect.

Duel Conditions
- Passive abilities function as usual.
- The use of active abilities and anything other than a standard pistol attack is prohibited.
- Equipment is limited to pistols provided by the organizers (all other inventory must be removed from the characters) and ammunition for them:
Duel Pistol+
Damage: 120
Range: 7
Reload: 1
+4 to accuracy and +24% to final damage in 1-on-1 battles.
- If a character has the ability to survive lethal damage, they will return to the battle in the same initiative order.
- During the battle, the organizers will use healing potions, which will continue until one of the duelists is permanently defeated.
- The penalty for lacking the skill required to use a pistol is modified for the duration of this battle: instead of a penalty to accuracy, evasion, and attack, the character receives -1 to reload.
- The starting distance between opponents is 6 tiles; exceeding this distance is prohibited.

After listening to the refitter's confession, Nao stood for a moment in thought, then took out a piece of paper and a pen (if the bandits hadn't taken them away) and began to write something down.

- During the battle, the organizers will use first-aid kits, which will continue until one of the duelists is irrevocably defeated.

It's clear that this is a true connoisseur of friendly duels.

- Aren't you afraid of dying?

The text of the letter, which resembled a note, contained the following words:

"The second room in the negotiation hall in the Temple, come alone."

Lost in thought about who could have written this message, Ashur headed to the Temple. Entering, he leaves Pizhma nearby (so that she can rush to his aid if needed) and finds the room mentioned.

- Aren't you afraid of dying?

— The priest instilled in us, excuse me, that we shouldn't be afraid, so no.
