Hearing that Mr Chen wanted to sell the cub, Clint felt that it was reasonable. Since Mr Chen was a lightning mage like himself, the elemental spirit was useless to him.
Its real value was in its market price after it was sold.
In this regard, Clint advised Mr Chen to keep it and sell it when he goes to a bigger city.
Because as much as he wanted to buy the cub from Mr Chen, Balon City was currently experiencing a shortage of resources as all of the magic beasts in the area were disappearing mysteriously.
Therefore, he won't have enough money to buy the cub from Mr Chen.
Alex nodded, feeling partially guilty for the shortage of resources. The mysterious disappearance of magic beasts was his fault. Clint knew this as well but just didn't dare to say it in front of him.
Alex then asked if he could leave the cub with Clint for the time being, and he would come take it when he was ready to go to the capital.
