Three days later, a second murder occurred.
Just like the previous victim, this one had been disemboweled not far from a church belonging to the Church of the Lord of Storms.
The three Cardinals of the Church of the True Gods in the Backlund region all regarded this as a provocation against their churches. They had to solve the case as soon as possible and find the Devil preparing to advance.
As an investigator on the case, Leonard went through Mr. Fool to ask Miss Justice for help in obtaining information from Raphael about that Devil.
Audrey was resting at home when she received the scene Mr. Fool showed her of Mr. The Star asking for help.
She immediately wrote to Raphael to ask whether he had time. If he did, he need not reply; they would meet half an hour later at the Abandoned Manor where they had met once before.
After waiting more than twenty minutes, Audrey, who had already changed into a long dress that allowed ease of movement, assumed Raphael was available since he had not replied.
Just as she was about to use her Beyonder ability to head to the Abandoned Manor, the Messenger Pain suddenly delivered a letter from Raphael.
Audrey paused in surprise. Did Raphael not have time?
She opened the letter and glanced at it. There were only two sentences. The first read: "When you receive this letter, will you assume I don't have time?"
Audrey paused again, then read the second sentence: "Actually, I do. See you at the Haunted House."
The young noblewoman froze for a full three seconds before realizing: Did Raphael just play a prank on me with this letter? Why reply if he had time?
She could even picture Raphael's smug smile after pulling off his prank.
