I suspect he'd rather contain you, than destroy you, if only because he knows that you'll eventually be back, somehow. I doubt he'll make it<em>easy</em>on you to establish, but I also don't think he's going to hit you at full power, immediately. Mostly because if he were planning to, he'd have killed you the first time you two met."
