8th month of the Yuman Calender

"Soo.. Much people.." [Lucy]

"You'll be fine Lucy, just stay with me. Everyone in town is usually nice." [Hazel]

"Those two are really close aren't they?" [Clarent]

"Yes they are, they've been together for a very, very long time." [Clover]

Clover looks at the two girls ogling at the short extent of the crowd huddling around the massive bag.

"So Clarent, in this bag are all kinds of monster furs, I just need to get them valued as well." [Clover]

Clover points at the giant in front of the shop and explains the contents of the bag.

"So basically this bag consists of all kinds of monster furs from the forest next to this town. I won't tell you how I managed to acquire this amount of fur though." [Clover]

"Of course, a customer's secret is his own. But, by the looks of this bag, I don't think I'll be able to value it right now, maybe in about two days or so I should have a calculation on the cost/value of the contents of this bag. Will that be ok?" [Clarent]

"Monster furs huh?" [Hazel]

"I wonder how Clover acquired all these furs..." [Lucy]

Lucy and Hazel both stare at Clover with beaming eyes again. They have begun to suspect Clover may not be the wholesome and pure boy he may be known as. But they don't have the wild speculated idea at all.

"Yeah, that'll be ok Clarent, am I able to get the money for the gemstones though?" [Clover]

"That would be my pleasure dear customer. Let's may our way back inside for the transaction." [Clarent]

They all go inside the shop to complete the transaction. Lucy has calmed down with entering the shop. Clover thinks to himself, that she might have slight social anxiety, but it shouldn't be too bad. She is able to cope with it if Hazel or Clover are around.

Clarent hurries to the back of the shop leaving the group for a bit to gather up the surplus money for the gemstones.

"240,000 Montrice just like it was calculated. And two unknown value gemstones in the bags, would that be all? Oh, yeah other than refining the furs outside." [Clarent]

"Nope, everything is all well then. We'll be taking our leave now Clarent." [Clover]

"Sounds good Clover, pleasure doing business with you again, will I see you at Ironlite again?" [Clarent]

"You betcha." [Clover]

"How about you two beautiful girls?" [Clarent]

Clarent changes his view over to Hazel and Lucy. Lucy pretty much has gotten used to Clarent through previous conversations, so she's not that nervous anymore. Standing right beside Hazel.

"Yes sir!" [Hazel & Lucy]

Lucy and Hazel bow at Clarent with absolute politeness and Clover finished off the exchange with a good customer, employee handshake. The trio started walking out the door starting with the two girls and trailing behind was Clover.

Clarent realized he's forgotten to tell Clover about something, and rushed over to Clover before he completed left the store.

In a whisper, Clarent told Clover useful heads up about what's going on in the town of Belcroft as of lately.

"Clover, there has been rumors in the trade world about a girl being hunted down by some assassins, I'd suggest keeping an eye out." [Clarent]

"Yeah... Of course man. Thanks." [Clover]
