"To start, what do you know about binding contracts?" Arryn asked us.
Not many people know about binding contracts, as the common ones are agreements between two or more parties, not between an individual and themselves. However, at Hope Academy, especially in the elite class, most people are surely aware of them.
"You, Villa." Teacher Arryn pointed towards Villa, who was sitting next to her brother Ron.
"Binding contracts are like regular mana contracts, but the difference is that they occur between the individual and themselves, without any external interference." She spoke in a calm and slow tone.
"Correct, but what motivates the awakened to engage in such a thing? Why would they voluntarily bind themselves with a contract?" Arryn's expression remained unchanged as she asked.
