There were a few other reasons. A brief glimpse before the Portal had latched onto him. Enough spoken exchange to set him on edge. A question of his identity came up, his position, all from the moment he'd set foot in that door. And he didn't know how much the demon knew about all that yet.
Hearing those words though, Ciel perks up a little, eye going wide in surprise. Seeing him as more than just the contract? A meal? It was... more than he'd dared hope. He'd counted on the lack of contract protecting him but it seemed it wasn't necessary.
"I'll be sure to call you then." Oh, but there was more. and that might have been the most interesting thing he'd heard yet in his arguably short life. "Is it normal? For a demon to basically do the same?"
There isn't any need for Ciel to explain further. Whatever reason he give, the demon accepts it. The decision has already been made, and at least now, the demon can serve him better with more efficiency. There is still the revenge that hasn't been fulfilled. So the demon must abide by the contract. He can see the hope stirring and since the demon cannot tell lies, he want to make it clear it wasn't false hope either.
"Some contracts are not visible by the eyes alone. It can be only be felt." It's true, the mark of his eye is gone and it was proof of their bond. But pain and suffering will only make it deeper. And the demon valued the pain of sacrifice more than anything else.
"No. Some demons won't be merciful or kind, but some do make personal choices. I just happened to think there is some other way we can do until your revenge is obtained." Though even if he threw his revenge away or isn't feeling it, that doesn't mean the game of winning his soul is over. "I may be a beast, but I'm not illogical or unreasonable."
Sebastian's selfish is endless, and souls are valuable. "So yes, use the phone and call for me. I'm still in your service until the very end. And believe me when I said this, but you're allowed to command me and be selfish, and if your request is reasonable, it can be done and I can carry it out."
