Chapter 1924

"I want this!"

Clint and Zaafea were pacing back and forth before a snack cart at the largest shopping strip in the Southern Territory.

"Didn't you just finish eating?" Clint asked, a dumbfounded look on his face. "Just how much food can you pack into you? You've already had something from every snack cart here!" Zaafea grinned impishly.

"Hehe... It's such a rare occurrence to have you buy me a meal, Mr. Clint. Of course, I have to make sure I get my money's worth!"

"Gosh, you..."

"I want this and this! Oh, and get me some of those rolls too. He's paying."

"Hey! Don't treat this so matter-of-factly!" Clint shouted angrily.

In the end, Zaafea still managed to get something from every snack cart on the street. He massaged his round stomach as Clint smacked a hand on his shoulders angrily. "Can we get down to actual business now?"

"We need to get a place to do that. Don't tell me you're thinking of heading home?"

"Let's go to the racecourse up front. There's no one there."

"No one at a racecourse? Mr. Clint, don't you think a racecourse would be a little too attention-grabbing?"

"It's alright. I'll just ask everyone to leave."

"Huh? By using magic?"
