Tanya Grotter and talkative Sphinx. Book 13. Emets D.

Sphinxes are different. Egyptian, Assyrian, Greek. But among them only one loves to conclude magical transactions. Once, at an unkind hour, when Tibiughs almost captured the undead, it was the ancient man who promised him the key to the terrible gates in exchange for victory. True, Sphinx promised several hundred years of delay. And so they passed... But not all that you gave once, you can take it back.

Gleb Beibarsov understands - abandoning Tanya, he hurried. However, now he has Vanka in the way. Gleb cannot deal with the opponent himself, and therefore chooses an unusual duel. But the duel does not become less dangerous from this, especially if the fragment of the old braid Aida Plakhovna is planted on the Bamboo cane of Beibarsov..
