[Bonus chapter] A Week Waiting Period

Anyway, I had to wait for that higher up's response first. If he didn't answer, then I'd return to the contract and try to find a solution with the system's help.

Thinking about using the system to force a system higher up to do something seemed a bit weird and funny. However contracts were obligatory, even for those higher ups.

[I'm working on it, human kid. Don't think such a thing is done with a flip of switch]

The answer came in the form of this simple message. I didn't know but I felt like he was trying to get away from this deal or just buying himself more time.

"Just don't take that long, or else our contract won't be valid anymore."

[I'm doing my part, don't think I'm slacking here!]

"I hope you aren't," I didn't buy any of his words. I was sure now more than ever he was slacking.

I opened the contract and made sure the conditions there were limiting the payment by the fulfilment of that dude's promise.
