I dont know why, but it seems like there are a lot fewer people here this morning, or at least thats how it seams to me.

Youre right, master. With only this many people around here, I think it will be safe for you to use your magic without getting worried about anybody seeing you and finding out about it.

Thats great to hear, but I wonder if it will be the same during the evening. Because if so, then we might be having a problem.

It would seem that the number of people present in the Labyrinth really is decreasing the further up we are climbing, but what I want to know is whether or not this floor will be just as empty in the evening as it is right now, because if there wont be anyone else here by the time there will be time for me to draw the water for the bath, I might just teleport here instead of Veils Labyrinth and save a bunch of MP that way. But that would be possible only if the place will be just as deserted as it is now, which I honestly highly doubt, since it is a well-known fact that the Labyrinths are much more crowded in the evening than during the early mornings. On the other hand, if there would only be a few people in here, then maybe I could do some MP recovering with just Durandal as long as we would make sure that there will be no other people near us? Anyway, whatever ends up happening, I just hope that there will soon come the day where I will be able to find myself some nice, quiet MP recovering ground that I could use inconspicuously without having to constantly be afraid about getting found out.

There will definitely be more people here in the evening, but I am afraid that I do not have any good estimates as to how many more of them will there be exactly though.

Thats fine for now. For the time being, can you take us to the nearest place where the monsters are? We have to get a good look at what we can expect to find here before proceeding further, after all.

Yes, of course. This way, please!

We proceeded forward with Roxannes guidance until we happened across the first monster encounter of the seventh floor of Quratars Labyrinth. As it turns out, it was

Geh you again?

Rabbit Fur? I remember selling it to the merchant in the village that I visited when I first came to this country, but the price for it was not all that high. You think that its going to be the same if we try to sell it to the Adventurers Guild?

Yes, unfortunately. I do not think that any Guild would buy it for a decent price, but I heard that you can earn more money off of it if you take it to the clothing stores around the Imperial City.

Roxanne picked up the Rabbits Fur and handed it over to me.

Is that so?

Yes, thats right, or at least that is how the story went the last time Ive heard it.

Hmm, I think I understand why that might be the case, but still, its kinda weird to me that people would find such a common item in such a high demand.

Since Slow Rabbits are the enemies who generally appear on the lower floors of the Labyrinth and their fur is a pretty common item with a rather high chance of being dropped by them whenever they die, many people would probably get an overaboundance of that item as long as they would have taken enough time to grind it from the Slow Rabbits for a bit. That is also why the Adventurers Guild has more of that item than they know what to do with it, and hence they do not want to pay all that much for it whenever someone is bringing them more of it, but what makes it so apparently special that the clothing stores would be willing to pay for it more than others?

So, would you be so kind and enlightened me why would clothing stores be paying better money for the Rabbit Furs than the Guilds?

[As you wish, master. While it is true that the Adventurers Guild, or any other Guild for that matter, does not have much of a need for Rabbit Fur because those who dabble in the Labyrinth exploring business have no use of such a material, the same cannot be said about the people who live in the cities, especially the young aristocratic women. To them, a coat made of Rabbits Fur is an excellent article of clothing to wear because it is great for keeping you warm, especially during the winter season.
