"Gehrman, you're here too… Long time no see, haha."
Danitz stiffly turned around, looking at Klein who pushed the door open. After a brief pupil earthquake, he gave an awkward dry laugh and greeted him.
He no longer dared to think about how much Gehrman had heard of the conversation between him and Wayne just now; it was too terrifying.

"Long time no see." Klein raised a hand to push the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, speaking in his usual indifferent tone.
If he were Klein now, he might pat Danitz on the shoulder to tell him to cheer up, or proactively change the topic to spare Danitz embarrassment. But he was Gehrman.
The crazy adventurer was not such a considerate person.
"The weather is really nice today…" Since Klein didn't initiate a topic, Danitz could only try to save himself. He, who was usually a chatterbox and good at conversation, spoke dryly, racking his brain for what else to say to start a topic. His gaze drifted for a moment, then he suddenly thought of something and said in a hurry:
"By the way, Your Excellency Wayne, the captain has a letter for me to give you." As he spoke, Danitz began to search his pockets. Soon, he pulled out a folded letter.
Danitz naturally carried such an important letter with him.
Although he didn't understand why the captain didn't send the letter directly to Wayne, since the other party had a messenger.
"A letter?" Lin Ruo raised an eyebrow, took the letter Danitz handed over, and opened it directly in front of the two without any pretense.
The letter was in the delicate handwriting of Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina Edwards. Besides the polite greetings and the request to take care of Danitz, the remaining point was only related to one thing.
That was the Rebel Army.
According to the content of the letter, Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina Edwards seemed to intend to fund the Rebel Army in the colonies on the Five Seas and was asking for his opinion on the matter.
Lin Ruo narrowed his eyes. He wasn't surprised that Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina Edwards knew he had thoughts about the Rebel Army, because Lin Ruo had previously arranged for Danitz to collect information in that regard.
This was actually an intentional act by Lin Ruo. Behind Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina Edwards, without a doubt, stood the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, one of the Seven Orthodox Churches.
Moreover, Vice Admiral Iceberg's position in the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom was not low; she was basically a high-level official in waiting. It was not wrong to say that the God of Knowledge and Wisdom stood behind her.
And as for the Dragon of Wisdom, this Traitorous Dragon, it was certainly false to say that Lin Ruo had no thoughts at all.
Lin Ruo was actually quite curious about his arrangements for the Dragon of Wisdom, and also wanted to know the Dragon of Wisdom's attitude towards him.
Regarding the three traitor gods, among the information Lin Ruo already knew, the Blazing Sun was already being arranged and might become God of Combat 2.0 in the future. Although the Storm Pigeon was unclear, the Church of the Lord of Storms's attitude towards him was very interesting.
The Church of the Lord of Storms actually knew he was in the Church of the Evernight Goddess. This was the result of him acting recklessly when his memory hadn't recovered. So, it was impossible for the Storm Pigeon not to know his whereabouts, yet they clearly allowed it. The irritable Old Pigeons had no hostility towards him either, which was very interesting.
How could the Storm Pigeon not know his character? Even the Blood Emperor, who betrayed him, was severely injured by him, almost succeeding in purging the family. Did the Storm Pigeon really not worry about becoming the next Blood Emperor in the future?
Why did he Sealed Artifact his memory so confidently and throw himself into Loen, without worrying about the Storm Pigeon striking first?
The amnesiac him would not deliberately avoid the irritable Old Pigeons, nor would he hide his identity, and Loen was the Old Pigeon's home turf.
Lin Ruo thought a lot about the answers to these two questions, and the most likely answer he came up with was—perhaps, he and the Storm Pigeon had reached a certain degree of reconciliation in this regard.
But why?
With his personality, it was impossible to easily forgive a betrayer. If he and the Lord of Storms had truly reached some level of reconciliation, it meant that something very important must have happened, or there was some information he didn't understand yet.
Lin Ruo wasn't sure what that was, and wasn't going to think too much about it. However, he was sure that even if he and Storm reconciled to some extent, he definitely wouldn't help Storm fight against the Ancient Sun God series when God was about to be born in the future.
As a fellow victim from back then, Lin Ruo could certainly choose to forgive the Storm Pigeon on his own behalf, but he would never forgive on behalf of the Ancient Sun God.
Similarly, this obviously did not prevent him from exploring his attitude towards the last of the three gods, and their attitude towards him.
Unlike the open-book exam that was the Church of the Lord of Storms, Lin Ruo had never revealed his true identity in front of Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina and others. The most information he had disclosed was only the existence of The Fool.
Undoubtedly, the Dragon of Wisdom in the original work knew what The Fool was about, or rather, even if It didn't know who The Fool was at first, It probably guessed some things.
This extremely mysterious deity, who clearly understood many secrets, chose to invest in and show goodwill towards Klein shortly after Klein came into contact with Vice Admiral Iceberg in the original work.
And now, Vice Admiral Iceberg's inquiry in the letter about whether to fund the Rebel Army was clearly also the Dragon of Wisdom's show of goodwill towards The Fool.
So, the key question is, does the Dragon of Wisdom know of his existence beside The Fool?
Lin Ruo didn't know, and decided to wait and see without exposing himself.
Anyway, if he truly harbored killing intent towards the Dragon of Wisdom, he would definitely lay out a plan, and with the passage of time, he would eventually find out.
As for the risks involved, Lin Ruo felt they were barely acceptable.
And if not… Thinking of the Dragon of Wisdom's decisive surrender and superb skill in choosing sides, Lin Ruo couldn't help but curl his lip.
If the Traitorous Dragon truly chose to be a wise man who knew the times again, decisively surrendered to the Ancient Sun God, willingly degraded to a King of Angels, and was forgiven by the Ancient Sun God, he really wouldn't do anything to the other party.
After all, the victim himself had forgiven, so what else could he do?
But such a thing shouldn't happen, right?
Lin Ruo thought uncertainly, putting the letter aside and looking at Danitz, saying, "Besides this letter, did Vice Admiral Iceberg give you any other instructions?"
"Uh, no." Danitz shook his head honestly.
Lin Ruo was not surprised by this. While pondering about the Dragon of Wisdom in his mind, he looked at Danitz and said, "Also, don't call me Wayne. I am now Arthur Smith; you can call me Mr. Arthur."
This isn't a fake name… Uh, so Wayne was just a fake name too?
"O-okay." Danitz reacted almost belatedly, nodding submissively, then heard Lin Ruo say:
"By the way, tell me about your deeds over the years. It can serve as material for a new book."
"Oh, okay… Wait, what material?" Danitz almost subconsciously nodded submissively. The next second, he suddenly reacted, widening his eyes as he looked at Lin Ruo.
He finally remembered what Lin Ruo had muttered to himself earlier, and his heart sank, a bad premonition spreading through him.
