How many people Lin Ruo had befriended in the past was a question that Lin Ruo himself was very curious about.
From the currently known information, during the Second and Third Epochs, he was a King of Angels of the Ancient Sun God family, Amon's godfather. Lin Ruo even strongly suspected that he had a very good relationship with the Ancient Sun God back then, perhaps becoming someone like a younger brother to him. Otherwise, how could he have become Amon's godfather!
As for the Ancient Sun God family, aside from those who later betrayed or fell, Medici was definitely on good terms with him. Adam, or rather, the divine Ancient Sun God, clearly intended to befriend him. Ouroboros's relationship with him shouldn't be bad either. The True Creator directly gave him the Aurora Order's Backlund branch.
As for Amon, well, the less said about that mischievous child, the better.
During the Fourth Epoch, other things were uncertain, but he was clearly employed by the Solomon Empire from the start. Therefore, Lin Ruo felt that his relationship with Solomon back then should have been quite good as well. As for others, firstly, it was confirmed that he was on good terms with Abraham. Pallez should also count. As for the Evernight Goddess, it was unknown whether they were friends back then or later.
Apart from this, Lin Ruo wasn't too sure about his relationship with other people in the Fourth Epoch, such as the Night Emperor or the Death. However, he guessed that his relationship with the Death wouldn't be too good. As for the Blood Emperor—the other party had even boiled Medici and was severely injured by him. No matter how he thought about it, they should be enemies.
And in this final Fifth Epoch, the Roselle family had already confirmed their friendship. From Roselle's diary, it wasn't difficult to analyze that he seemed to have a good relationship with the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery in the past?
Miss Messenger was also a confirmed friend. He was currently nurturing the Lord of the Mysteries… Lin Ruo pinched his chin, "Hmm, it doesn't feel like that many…"
It's just knowing a few people!
Moreover, calculating it like this, I was so miserable in the Fourth Epoch. Apart from Solomon, the Evernight Goddess, and the True Creator, there were no other true gods who were friends. The True Creator's situation was also very special, but it couldn't be ruled out that there were other friendly relationships. After all, the information is incomplete…" Lin Ruo thought like this, and looked at Bornova again, saying: "How much do you know about me?"
"Uh…" Bornova was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to fall into reminiscence. He paused for a few seconds, probably organizing his words, and said: "To be honest, I don't know Uncle Lin Ruo very well. You are very familiar with my father, but rarely interact with us juniors, especially me. Even if there is contact, it would only be a few words at most. My understanding of you mostly comes from what I heard from my father."
"Oh?" Lin Ruo raised his eyebrows, thinking of the Roselle's diary he had read during this period, his smile became brighter, "Then how did he describe me?"
Bornova suddenly stopped talking. He paused for a second, then looked away as if no one else was there, and said: "Father said that Uncle Lin Ruo, you are very powerful, the number one person below the true gods. When his sequence was not high, you had been helping him, and he was very grateful to you…"
"Then did he ever tell you that I am a Demon King who urges manuscripts, a stingy ghost, and that he must beat me up once he reaches a high sequence in the future?" Lin Ruo said with a smile, as if he wasn't saying anything self-deprecating.
Bornova didn't speak, but memories from his childhood uncontrollably surfaced in his mind.
At that time, he was only a few years old. Once, when he went to find Roselle, he saw the other party frantically rushing to finish his manuscript while cursing.
That wasn't the first time he had seen his father rushing to finish his manuscript. In fact, since he could remember, every once in a while, his father seemed to fall into a state of frantically rushing to finish his manuscript for a day or two.
When he was still young, he once asked his father this question.
"Dad, do you really like writing novels?"
Then, Bornova still remembered that after he asked such a question, his father didn't answer his question, but pulled him to his side, pointed to the newly hung oil painting of Uncle Lin Ruo on the wall, and said to him seriously:
"Do you remember him? This is your Uncle Lin Ruo. When you grow up and reach a high sequence, help Dad beat him up!"
"You seem to have thought of something not so good?"
Just when Bornova was rarely recalling his childhood memories, Lin Ruo's voice came from his ear, which made him stunned. As the scene in his mind suddenly disappeared, he said without changing his expression: "No, Uncle Lin Ruo, you are overthinking things."
Afterwards, Bornova tried to change the subject, "Didn't you say that you don't remember the past, Uncle Lin Ruo? Why do you still know… some of Father's, uh, not-so-appropriate comments about you?"
Changing the subject was real, and curiosity was also real.
"I don't remember the past, but that doesn't mean I don't investigate." Lin Ruo curled his lips and continued to ask: "So, there's no need to hide some not-so-good words. I want to know what I was like in the past, and I also want to know what I am like in Roselle's and your eyes."
"Okay, Uncle Lin Ruo, I will tell you these things one by one." Since Lin Ruo had said so, Bornova reorganized his words and began to describe Lin Ruo in his eyes in the past.
According to his description, back then, in Roselle's description, Lin Ruo was the number one person under the true gods, a generous and knowledgeable Big Brother , as if he knew everything and knew everyone, a Devil Monarch who urged manuscripts like urging life, someone that Roselle had once vowed to beat up once he reached a high sequence in the future, an opponent he had been fighting wits with for many years, and…
A friend who had known Roselle since his sequence was not high, and accompanied him all the way to the end.
"…Although Father always had no good words when he talked about you, I know that he cares about you very much. You are a very important friend to Father." Bornova said while recalling, looking at Lin Ruo with a slightly complicated expression, "If there are any people in Father's life that he can't let go of, my sister counts as one, my brother counts as one, I count as one, my mother maybe counts as one, and after that, it's probably you."
"An indispensable friend…" Lin Ruo lowered his eyes, took a sip of the tea he was holding in his hand. He suddenly closed his eyes, and a certain voice seemed to sound in his ear.
"I'm telling you, Lin Ruo, I won't yield. Don't even think about forcing me to write a single word!"
…
"Holy crap! This, this is given to me?"
…
"You don't drink alcohol, Lin Ruo. You're not a lightweight, are you?"
…
"Look, my daughter, cute, right! Lin Ruo, you single dog, are you envious? Envious, but she's not yours."
…
"Lin Ruo, do you know about an, uh, organization that believes in the Creator?"
…
"Lin Ruo, please."
…
Those voices went from blurry to clear, as if someone was nagging in his ear, but Lin Ruo's mind was still blank.
He seemed to have remembered something, but he also seemed to have remembered nothing.
After the silence in his ears, Lin Ruo opened his eyes and looked at Bornova, saying:
"I still haven't remembered anything."
"But I will help you find your father, I promise."
