Yeah it's a sort of concept unzipping file kind of thing. The main thing the entity tried to exploit was my "curiosity". By merely being curious about he would give more and more hints so I want to accept it in the end like a starved beast. Always giving a little taste that would just make even more curious. I know what was the "end goal" of the contract I just didn't know the "why" and "why make this" even. Because it was ruling over a very large amount of almost mindless entities. And it was part of a larger thing. The contract was literally an entire lexicon.

Not to mention the entity noticed that whenever he made me angry with a shitty offer the connection got disrupted. Or alert some of my higher guides when someone proposes something of extreme ill-will.

Also if I restrict the concepts of the "contract" too much then it would just fail to manifest and the connection breaks.
Not to mention if you start doing things this way you will start a pissing contest and that might draw in unforeseen things out of anger desperation or amusement. I was not sure just how big this thing was. And employing "my ways" just reveals my hand. Revealing my cards would allow them to make counter measures.
The entity perfectly hided his presence and everything behind "my own mask".

It was not impossible task but curiosity would have sent the cat on an interesting journey. And I knew that making me do the thing that was the goal of the contract was enough of a price for them. The more I learn about it the more I "lose" the "match". Like they would have given it for me for free but that would make me think that it's worthless so they make me invested in wanting to "get it". It's like making someone haggle to buy nuclear trash.
Those who play the "long game" has a different mindset when talking about winning and losing things.
I was not sure just how long the game is that they are playing. Then I was not sure if I even want to know it (yet).


The end result would have been a sort of "by trying to get out of the contract I would do what it wanted me to do in the beginning without noticing it"
or If I actually get out of the contract I would just make the entity fuming and other tricksters would pester me for amusement.
Or they would just never talk to me ever again. You might never know. The trickster path can go many places.
