Today's the day.

Oh god, my heart is pounding. Later today, I'm going to be fighting Duncan.

And I have to win.

Sally still hasn't woken up, which is worrying. But I've been able to get stronger the last couple of days thanks to her.

Clicking on my [Profile], I decided to check my stats one last time before I fight.

I've leveled up a lot. But I'm still not stronger than Duncan. But that doesn't mean I can't be smarter.

A knock on the door to my dorm brought me out of my deepening thoughts.

"I'll get it." I stated.

Brutus nodded at me, continuing to watch his show on the television. Opening the door, I saw that it was Madam Webb!

"Madam Webb!" I gasped. "Come on in. What are you doing here?"

I let her inside, closing the door behind her.

"I have something for you." She said, handing me a box.

"What is this?" I asked. The box was about double the size of a shoe box.

Opening the box, they weren't shoes! It was some sort of outfit! Taking it out, it looked like the kind of outfit an assassin would wear.

It was a midnight black, tight sleeveless shirt with a dark trench coat over it. The trench coat had a hood attached as well. There was also some tight black combat pants with matching black combat boots. The whole outfit was accented with silver trimming.

"What is this...?" I asked, gazing at it.

"You're going into a duel with the strongest student. You'll need a combat outfit." Madam Webb stated. "It has some light armor and it won't catch on fire."

"This is amazing..." I muttered. "Thank you! But why?"

"I can't let my future son-in-law die on me, now can I?" Madam Webb responded.

I blushed in embarrassment. Wait! That's too quick! Me and Anna aren't dating! Plus, you wouldn't want me to be your son-in-law! I'm making a harem!

"You're with Anna?" Brutus softly asked, surprised. "Congratulations."

No Brutus, don't misunderstand!

"Thank you, really. But why now?" I asked.

"Since you survived against Sapphire, I decided to accept you as the one Anna loves." Madam Webb answered.
