Sebastian had finally been waiting for the moment when His Majesty the Demon King would lose his patience. When he heard the Demon King's voice, he too let out a sigh of relief.
Praising His Majesty was genuine, but the initial motivation was not so pure.
If it had been the previous Demon King standing here, Sebastian's plan to sweet-talk would never have been so successful. This must be the joy of having a cub-like Demon King.
Truly, it was a delight.
However, the most important thing now was to properly wrap this matter up—starting and ending it cleanly—so that no one (especially the Demon King) could catch any loose ends.
"Eh?" Sebastian feigned surprise as he turned to look, raising his voice a few octaves. "Your Majesty, you came specifically to see me? I'm really so happy!"
The Demon King would definitely be moved; in His Majesty's eyes, Sebastian imagined himself to be full of surprise, with reddened eyes, looking as if he wanted to say something but held back.
