Chapter 416 Chapter 416 – Welcome to Dark Dream!
Nick had shown that he had prepared the contract in advance on purpose.
The purpose was to intimidate Irwin.
Naturally, Irwin realized that everything had been prepared beforehand and that Nick had expected him to come, asking for forgiveness.
While Irwin would be extremely loyal due to his own guilt, that didn't necessarily mean that he viewed Nick as superior.
Because of that, Nick wanted to intimidate him.
Feeling predictable equaled feeling vulnerable.
Humans put a lot of value on their free will.
Free will meant freedom and being able to make one's own choices.
However, if someone could predict everything someone else did, that feeling of power vanished.
The way Nick had spoken had shaken Irwin's confidence even more.
When someone's confidence was completely broken, they were far more likely to accept almost any kind of information at face value.
Due to the sheer power imbalance, Irwin viewed everything that Nick had said as the truth.
Nick had completely intimidated Irwin, and subconsciously, Irwin felt very vulnerable and weak in front of him.
Irwin took hold of the contract with slow hands, afraid of making any sudden movements.
Nick looked at Irwin with neutral eyes.
Irwin's entire body was sweating due to pressure.
Irwin was two levels higher than Nick, but right now, he felt like a little child standing in front of an intimidating stranger in a lonely alley.
Irwin read through the contract, and he felt guilty about doing that.
His emotions were telling him that he should just sign and that reading the contract showed disrespect to Nick.
"You don't need to hurry," Nick said, his voice startling Irwin. "Take your time."
"Th-thanks," Irwin answered before he looked back at the contract.
The more Irwin read, the more shocked he became.
This contract was too good!
Sure, Irwin wouldn't get any authority, but his pay was insanely high!
10% of what he earned for Dark Dream was what he would get!
He would earn more than double of what he had earned in Solace!
