What kind of stockings are the hottest kind?
Sheer blacks that just barely let the skin show through? Or whites that come all the way up the thigh? Or maybe striped ones, for a slightly younger look?
Tastes differ from person to person, so there's no ranking them, but I was certain about exactly one thing.
"Which is hotter, blacks or whites?"
If anyone asked me that, I could answer with my head held high.
"Freshly removed stockings are the hottest of all."
I presented the Marquis with a pair an elf had just peeled off.

A short while later. I left Eila in charge of guarding the market, hurried back to our main base, and went straight into a meeting with Shaitan.
"How the stockings spread doesn't matter. What matters is that they've spread all the way to the capital."
"And that they're selling for a considerably higher price than we expected, which is strange. I think I understand why they sold at all. Human greed."
