For a smart person, Ren is quite dumb. She has money and connections now, she could try to blow the lid on the orphan slave market without getting that involved and exposed. Well maybe it is a future plot line at some point.

Come to think of it, I wonder what her true parentage is, since she was abandoned as a toddler. Inb4 this guy was his grandfather or something.

It's not legal, though. It's threading the needle of a series of loopholes, only possible because no one cares and a powerful individual is doing it.

Almost, though I can't recall if it was just random kidnappers or related to the pig-merchant. The p-m has yet to appear in the hiatused wn.

The thing is...if a contract has no mention of how it's broken or how long it lasts...it's actually not an 'unbreakable contract' but a 'broken in any way' contract.

A contract is a document requiring to do something and restricting you so that you do it properly. That means that everything it is NOT restricting is allowed. This does indeed mean that for a contract to be unbreakable and permanent, it needs to explicitly state that it is unbreakable and permanent. Otherwise it lasts until any party wishes to break it (without any consequences) and can be broken in any way a person fancies (including by simply not following it, whether or not the other party is aware).

But I do get it that most people do not understand this, and I believe even many courts would need to be educated on this matter in order to give proper judgement.

Something like that requires corruption being involved, unless it is legal.
Without a counter for the contracts magic, she can not bring it up. Since bringing it up does nothing and gets her in trouble.

why are you pretending that a modern court is overlooking this?

if its a magical compulsion that cannot be resisted until the contract period is complete then vague details would screw over the worker

Well, I guess the hunter proves that Ren is still a small fish in a very large pond, and she's attracting attention.

That man's the local king, isn't he?

Edit: This chapter is roughly equivalent to Chapter 112 of the WN.

I mean, she did explain that the more there are nearby the more powerful they become.
Not sure I'd call that "close together" with that range, since the length of the wall is several times that. Unless they don't need to be that close, and the increase in power is massive.
