This contract is eternal. It will persist indefinitely. The contract will become invalid only when one party is deceased, or both parties agree to terminate the contract.
Once the contract becomes invalid, all the knowledge Noland Lee had shared with Mabel would be erased by the contract. To some extent, this prevents instances where the buyer pays first and kills the seller afterward to regain their assets.
Mabel sat on the sofa and took a deep breath:
"Alright, Ray Lee. The contract has been established. There are some gold coins left in the manor's treasure vault. If your knowledge satisfies me, I will fulfill your request."
Soul contracts also come in various ranks.
The contract signed by Noland Lee and Mabel is the lowest-ranked one, without the "Soul Perception" effect.
The rank of the contract has no impact on the penalties and efficiency of the contract, only affecting the additional effects brought by the contract.
"Soul Perception" is one of those additional effects.
