Vallan was too afraid of that little devil.
He already had the trauma of Ainsley, and if he saw her again, he might faint!
Seeing Vallan so traumatised like this, Raphael thought that Ainsley tortured Vallen badly for months.

He even willingly did all things Ainsley asked him to do, and it's all because of his charm ability!
So scary! Ahh!
That's how Raphael couldn't persuade Vallan to go with him and had to go empty-handed.

There will be many live monsters or beasts caught in the end, and many people would fight to own these monsters or beasts.
