The long night had begun. The two men had dived deep into the numerous folders and started to go through each member of the King's council—who they were and how they thought, even their backgrounds.
Aric noticed something with each new piece of information: he received a system notification.
[Lord Orin info updated]
"So, Lord Orin... he is quite the person," the old man grabbed a folder. "He's stern and principled, and believes in law and order above all else. He has the King's respect but often clashes with him over matters of right and wrong."
As Hitoki explained, Aric could see the panel update in real-time with the council member's information.
Hours stretched through the night, and one by one, they went through each member of the council until they had covered every single person. Aric now had information on the council members—their personalities, their relationships with the King, their backgrounds, and even some of their well-kept secrets.
