The contract Wyatt had drawn had no trick or hidden clause in it. He made sure to make it as simple and standard as possible with the terms they agreed on while protecting the interest of both parties involved.
Wyatt did this because he did not want Mak Tul to get suspicious. Even though he was blinded by rage and desperation, he has been in this line of business for centuries. It would be difficult to get an ill-faith contract past him in his sleep. Even though Mak Tul went through the contract only once in a hurry he still managed to comprehend it all.
Mak Tul was surprised that the Chaos Dwarf was not trying to take advantage of him during his weakest. When the Dwarf said he had already prepared the contract and shared it with his merchant codex, Mak Tul's guard immediately went up feeling that Chaos Dwarf was up to no good however seeing that he was wrong about him he began to trust the Chaos Dwarf as much as he hated Nim Tul right now. Which was why he signed the contract without any hesitation.
As a result, he forgot to do the most important step of signing a contract, the verification of the identity of all parties in the contract. If the contract had proceeded he could have asked the Chaos Dwarf for an identity verification but considering how things went, he did not have the time to go through it neither did it flash his mind. Since he felt the Chaos Dwarf only stood to lose rather than gain after deceiving him.
The Chaos Dwarf was not entering into a contract with Mak Tul himself but the organization he represented. Meaning if the Chaos Dwarf were to deceive Mak Tul, he would be deceiving the Blight Brood Club and not Mak Tul himself. Putting said the punishment that Mak Tul would be facing for his mistake the 'Seven Princes of the Hell' faction would do everything in power to deal with the Chaos Dwarf that deceived them.
After all, this was no longer business but personal, it was about their reputation. They would prefer not to make an enemy out of the Chaos Dwarf race but since one of them dares to disrespect them they would have to fight back for their reputation, if the Chaos Dwarf community had a problem with it then tough luck, they can wait for the culprit Chaos Dwarf in the afterlife.
Reputation was everything for the Dark races, their perspective of a good reputation was different from that of most humans except for drug paddlers, warmongers, crime bosses, and mass murderers. This twisted sense of reputation was why Belphegor was willing to go to extreme lengths to deal with a card master in a different realm from an unknown corner of the Myriad realms he was busy exploring. The lengths Belphegor went through to get his revenge and redeem himself in his own eyes and the others despite his repeated failures was amazing and a testament to how much the dark races valued their reputation.
So if the Chaos Dwarf were to deceive them regardless of his status in the Chaos Dwarf community and the attitude of his community, the 'Seven Princes of the Hell' faction would hunt down the Chaos Dwarf to redeem their reputation. Therefore, Mak Tul believed Chaos Dwarf was smarter than to think that he could get away after deceiving him.
Mak Tul knew the Chaos Dwarf despite its young age was crafty, which was why when he saw that the contract drawn up by the Chaos Dwarf was in good faith and had no tricks to it he was convinced that Chaos Dwarf was clever than to think that he could deceive the club, smarter than to think he could get way after deceiving the club. Therefore, he believed that Dwarf would not dare to deceive the club but negotiate a side deal that favored him. Which he had already obtained and now the smart thing for him was to get it in writing. Mak Tul believed this was why the dwarf was eager to sign the contract.
Mak Tul knew that the crafty young Chaos Dwarf's greed would not allow him to sign a deal that would not benefit him in more than one way, Mak Tul was prepared to give the Chaos Dwarf what it wanted as it was just the gateway for him and his faction to make an impression on the Chaos Dwarf community. Mak Tul did not think of this deal as a loss but a long-term investment.
However, what he did not know was that he had already played right into the Chaos Dwarf's hands. If not for his rage towards Nim Tul and his desperation to not let the opportunity in his hands pass blinding him, even though he would not know what the Chaos Dwarf was up to he would have been able to put an end to his plans even before it took root. Now, not only did he not fail to verify the identity of the Chaos Dwarf but he in turn had unwittingly become the gateway for the Chaos Dwarf to infiltrate the 'Seven Princes of the Hell' faction.
Thanks to Mak Tul who was blinded by rage and desperation, Wyatt was able to cross the biggest hurdle to infiltrating Belphegor's faction, his identity, with ease. Now as long as Wyatt played his cards right he would be able to achieve the goal behind his trying to infiltrate Belphegor's faction through Blight Brood Club and not other options.
With a victorious grin and a smug look on his face, Mak Tul grabbed the last bottle of the Island Spirit Liquor from the shelf, then throwing a provoking glance at Nim Tul, he led the Chaos Dwarf Ezra Foolhar back to his office. Nim Tul gushed his teeth watching Mak Tul's confident stride full of smugness.
