Nial was not really scared of the government anymore.
In fact, he hadn't been scared of them earlier either. It was just that Nial liked to be a little bit more careful.
That was not necessary after what had happened in the last few months, especially since he did business with the rebels of the Shelturion race, and now that the Linaton left the human shelters.
The only issue that was left behind was how to solve the Soul Contract scheme with the Linaton race. As per Nial's understanding, he could tell that the Linaton would disappear and return in a few years when the period of the Soul Contracts would come to an end.
And that time, the Linaton would end up taking everyone, who was unable to reach the Deux-rank which was one of the conditions mentioned in the Soul Contract.
And that was where Nial's plan came into play.
