Hearing the sound of Dormammu struggling to fend off the attacks, Blaine could not help secretly complaining in his heart.
"Hey."
"Dormammu."
"Are you still not giving up?"
"Are you willing to keep dragging this out forever?"
"Oh, yes."
"Anyway, you've been in the Dark Dimension for hundreds of years, so it's not too bad now."
"However, you have to think about it."
"Are you willing to stay in this place where you are tortured every day,"
"Or do you want to go back to your comfortable greenhouse from before?"
"You should think it through."
Since the coercion just now had not worked, Blaine planned to lure him this time, coaxing and deceiving him. In TV dramas, not many detainees could withstand this. It was called giving a slap and then offering candy.
"Clack..."
"You..."
"You're dreaming."
Hearing that Dormammu was still stubborn, Blaine felt that he had to add some "material." However, listening to Dormammu's tone, it seemed to be exhausted. Although the integrated magic circle was not enough to kill Dormammu, it was still no problem to make it resist with all its strength and suffer some injuries. Even if Dormammu still did not agree, letting him stay in such an environment meant surrender was only a matter of time. Blaine knew that Dormammu might not be far from collapse now.
Sure enough, after waiting for nearly half an hour, Blaine finally heard what he wanted to hear.
"Goo... Goo..."
"Wait."
"Wait a moment."
Hearing Dormammu begging for mercy, Blaine did not soften his heart, nor did he stop the magical attacks. It had to be said that Blaine's ability to play hard to get was still acceptable.
"Wait a moment."
"Wait a moment."
"Uh..."
"I'll sign, I'll sign."
"Can't I sign it?"
"Come on, stop these damn things."
It was almost enough. If it continued, perhaps Dormammu would go berserk. With this degree of precision, Blaine could play Dormammu in the palm of his hand.
The magical attacks stopped, and the magic pattern of the contract appeared again in front of Blaine and Dormammu.
"Look carefully."
"I didn't force you."
"Everything is voluntary."
Blaine cast the contract magic and spoke to Dormammu again. It was probably because he was afraid the system would not recognize this contract. After all, Blaine had threatened Dormammu just now, and it was his first time using this spell, so Blaine was also very excited.
"Wait a minute."
"If you want me to acknowledge you as my lord,"
"You also have to promise me two conditions."
As soon as he heard that Dormammu still had conditions, Blaine immediately became unhappy. However, if he thought about it carefully, even though Blaine was trapping Dormammu now and had a hold over it, if Blaine really kept exhausting himself like this, the one who would suffer in the end would still be Blaine himself.
Besides, those "tricks" were nothing more than self-deceiving tactics. It was a hold over Dormammu, but it seemed that it could not truly threaten it. If it was pushed to the limit, Dormammu might really fight Blaine to the end in a fit of anger.
The integrated magic circle was not like the Dark Dimension. The Dark Dimension could exist forever because there was endless dark matter energy here. The integrated magic circle, however, had still been created by Blaine with manpower, and it would eventually dissipate on its own.
And Dormammu's lifespan was as long as this Dark Dimension. If the integrated magic circle dissipated and Dormammu came out by itself, Blaine could not guarantee that this guy would not make some crazy move.
There had to be a degree of relaxation. Taking advantage of Dormammu's softening attitude, Blaine thought it would be better to first listen to what it wanted.
"Tell me."
"What do you want?"
"My request is also very simple."
"If you want me to conclude a master-servant contract with you,"
"First,"
"I can only promise you ten years."
"Mm-hmm."
"Understandable."
"I can promise that."
"What about the next one?"
Before Dormammu could finish speaking, Blaine directly interrupted and agreed. It was probably to make Dormammu feel his sincerity that he was so straightforward.
However, thinking about it carefully, it was not unreasonable for Blaine to agree so readily.
Anyway, Dormammu was not an ordinary person. Even if he signed a master-servant contract with it, who knew what tricks it might have? Although after the contract was concluded, Dormammu would not be able to hurt him, if Dormammu tripped him up everywhere in the future, the gain would not be worth the loss. It would be like carrying a troublesome spirit with him, a time bomb.
Besides, with Dormammu's strength, it would be very difficult for Blaine to make it follow him sincerely. What was the use of having a disloyal dog? Since it could not be sincere, Dormammu probably would not obey discipline either. So if he wanted it to follow him forever, let alone Dormammu being unwilling, Blaine himself was also unwilling.
Thinking about it this way, a ten-year contract was fine. Within ten years, Blaine could use Dormammu as a weapon, or as a shield, and so on. After ten years, Blaine would definitely surpass Dormammu in strength. At that time, it would depend on Dormammu's performance. If it was honest, then let it do whatever it wanted. But if it was dishonest, then there would be no need for it to exist.
"Next,"
"You must promise me this too."
"Tell me."
"I want you to let me out."
"That's natural."
"As long as you agree."
"No."
"I mean,"
"I'm going to Earth with you."
"As long as you agree to this last condition, I will sign a master-servant contract with you."
"..."
"Impossible."
"You want to go to Earth?"
"You're dreaming!"
Originally, Blaine had been curious about what conditions Dormammu wanted to bring up. Blaine had been ready to agree. As it turned out, Dormammu actually wanted to go to Earth. How was this possible? One of the tasks Blaine had accepted was to prevent Dormammu from invading Earth. Therefore, anything else was fine, but this one was absolutely not.
He had thought that Dormammu would say it had principles, and that when instructing it to do things, Blaine could not violate those principles. For example, not killing the old, the weak, the sick, and the like. However, it happened to be the one condition Blaine could not accept the most.
"What?"
"You dare to sign a master-servant contract with me,"
"But you don't dare to let me return to Earth?"
"Clack, clack, clack, clack..."
"Don't worry."
"What I said earlier still stands."
"I swear I won't invade Earth, all right?"
"Moreover,"
"There is a master-servant contract."
"Is it possible that you are still afraid I will deceive you?"
No matter what Dormammu said, Blaine definitely could not let this mission go to waste anyway. However, it had not been easy to reach this point. In terms of importance, no matter how valuable a Level Five Star Core was, it seemed that it could not compare with a heavyweight fighter like Dormammu.
