Jake and Ophelia followed Edgar into his office. He retrieved a stack of stapled documents and, after filling in a few details, handed them over to Jake.
"That's our contract."
Jake took the papers, flipping through them carefully. They looked like ordinary documents, yet as he read through them, he realized everything he had requested was written down exactly as he wanted.
'Did he print this while I was away?' he wondered before picking up a pen and signing his name.
Edgar followed suit, signing where required. The moment he did, the documents emitted a golden light.
"The contract is sealed. Congratulations, King Jake," Edgar said, shaking his hand.
Jake's expression remained unreadable. "King Jake? Don't act like you don't know about the ridiculous treaty with the humans. I'm probably already on their watchlist."
