"Sir Igor! Please, we beg you to go back to infirmary. Your condition is not completely stable right now."
Soldiers clinging on Igor were begging and even using their own weight to stop Igor. But even in his injured state, they weren't able stop him at all. He was slowly step by step keep moving closer to the Throne Room dragging along the soldiers with him.
"Shut up! Get out of my way! I'm going to meet the King no matter what."
While this all was happening, Sebastian and Diablo who were watching all of these from Throne Room were just silent. They didn't say anything. From the look of the Sebastian's face, It wasn't the first time that this was happening.
After seeing this commotion for a while, Diablo finally asked.
[What is happening here?]
Igor and the soldiers were so focused on each other that they didn't noticed that the gates of Throne Room were already opened.
And that their King had seen everything that was happening here. As soon they heard their King, all soldiers, even the one clinging on Igor, and Igor saluted their King at same time.
""We greet the Demon King!""
[*Nod* Now someone tell me what was happening right now?]
Hearing the question from their King, one of the soldiers probably their senior step forward and explained.
"Your Highness, just a while go Sir Igor had just recovered and had woken up that he immediately began to request an audience with the King. We tried to stop Sir Igor whose state is still not completely stable. Even the doctors have said that excessive amount of force can reopen Sir Igor injures."
After hearing from the soldiers, Diablo asked Igor for his response.
[And what about you Sir Igor?]
"Your Majesty, there is a serious matter that I would like to discuss with you and Sir Sebastian alone."
Seeing from the serious expression on the Igor face. Diablo knew this would not be a small matter.
[Everyone except Sir Sebastian and Sir Igor should go back to their previous posts.]
""Yes, Your Majesty!""
After all the soldiers were gone from where they came, Diablo closed the doors, again without any seeable movement.
[Now, Uncle Igor. Are you alright? You are not forcing yourself, are you?]
Since there was on one except them in the Throne Room. Diablo asked Igor about his health.
"Haha, you don't have to worry kid. I am not someone to die to the likes of the Hero. But Sadly, due to my carelessness everyone except died while giving a opening for me to escape from there."
Igor had also began to talk with Diablo like he was a close relative of Diablo. While he was talking, he remembered his now fallen comrades who had gone with him. Making him feel sad about their death.
While Igor was talking, Sebastian silently went behind him and slapped ,with enough force to not reopen his wounds, on his back. Which caused Igor a huge amount of pain.
"Ouch!! What the hell are you doing Sebastian?! Can't you be more kind to an injured friend of yours?"
"Look whose talking. We did told you to not go but you didn't listened even had the nerve so say that the Hero was nothing to you. And here you are now, all covered in bandages like a mummy."
"Hmm. If the Hero was all alone we could have already defeated him. It's just because of those girls who were around him that I was defeated, especially that Sage girl."
"Yeah Yeah. You are just finding some reason for your defeat aren't you?"
While watching the argument between both of them, Diablo was really glad that his Uncle Igor wasn't in any danger. And he understood that It was highly possible that Sebastian started the argument to brought both of them out of their griefs.
Diablo was really glad that there were such friendly people around. Seeing that they were still arguing, Diablo laughed.
[Haha, You both can stop now. You both are already making me laugh. By the way, Uncle Igor there was something you wanted to tell me?]
After Igor stopped arguing with Sebastian, he told.
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot. The Hero and his party have entered the Demon Realm from eastern mountain side. Until we reached, the eastern fortress was already destroyed. No survivors were found. And after our battle with the Hero, I think there is only three days left before they reached here."
When Sebastian and Diablo heard this, both were surprised. Both knew that Hero and his party were travelling at fast speed but It looks like they were going reach here earlier than they thought.
"Tell me, You both had decided what to do with the Hero, right? There is already not much time left."
Sebastian and Diablo looked each other for a moment and then Sebastian replied.
"You don't have worry. We have already decided to use the summoning for this."
When Igor heard this, his eyes widened with surprise. He wanted say something but than he remembered that they were not in any position right now to be choosy.
And It was Origin gods who started this so they would have no right to blame them. In a way this was better that they don't have to send their own King for fighting against the Hero.
After sorting out everything in his mind, Igor asked.
"So, when will we proceed with that plan? And I also want to their during summoning."
Igor knew that anything from Abyss would be anything but good. So, he wanted to be there even If he was injured. And Sebastian knew that Igor was stubborn in these kind of matters so he didn't object and asked Diablo.
"So Your Majesty, I highly recommend that we proceed as soon as possible as we don't have much time left."
[Very well than let do It right now. The more we waste time, the more we are keeping our people in danger. Sebastian, is everything ready?]
"Yes, Your Highness. I just need to some time bring all the necessary things for the summoning to the Altar Room. And then we can begin anytime."
"Then I'll also go and prepare my armor."
After hearing this, Diablo opened the gates to let them go. When left alone, Diablo sighed.
[*Sigh*....I hope this works.]
