Aside from Hades and Io, Paros was the only one in the Palace.
This Four-Armed Demon was the personal guard Hades had chosen for Io.

His body, like that of a demon god, embodied his terrifying combat strength.

This Palace was not a place for deliberations.
Most of the Kingdom's affairs were left to the Cabinet and General Staff to handle and plan, and their offices were elsewhere.
