Chapter 82 Meeting with Dawn Dantes
After hearing Audrey's words, Raphael said, "That's right, that revenge operation was one of my missions."
Audrey asked, somewhat puzzled, "How did you anger the Church of Storms?"
Although they are easily angered, Mr. Hanged Man specifically explained that this anger seemed different from his usual anger.
Raphael said, "I call them cultists."
"Evil—" Audrey said, somewhat amused and exasperated, "They are the Church of the True God."
Raphael shrugged and said, "They're guilty, otherwise why would they be angry?"
Audrey did not dwell on the matter, since Raphael did not seem to believe in the Seven Gods.
Raphael then briefly recounted the whole incident, but only mentioned that he had completed his mission without discussing killing the "Punisher".
Because Raphael felt that the most brilliant part of this matter was those two comments.
After finishing their business, Audrey had no interest in chatting with Raphael. The two said a brief goodbye, Raphael got off the carriage, and Audrey took the carriage back to the Rune Charitable Education Foundation.
She remained lost in thought throughout the journey.
As they neared their destination, Susie said, "Audrey, you don't need to be so confused."
"Because you didn't set the rules of this world, you are also a victim of these rules."
Audrey paused for a moment, then asked, "Susie, you agree with Raphael's point of view?"
Susie grinned and said, "I've heard other dogs say that many dogs live very miserable lives, and that humans who kill dogs are not punished by law unless the dog is not theirs."
"But it only involves property issues, not the right to life."
Audrey paused for a moment, and two images suddenly flashed through her mind. One image was of Susie dressed as a lawyer, defending a dog with a tragic fate.
Another scene shows Susie leading Backlund's dogs in a march through the streets, advocating for the dogs' most basic rights.
Shaking her head, Audrey tried to erase the two images from her mind. She said to Susie, "I know what you mean. You mean the world is decided by the strong."
Compared to dogs, humans are the stronger ones.
She took a deep breath and said, "But during our conversation just now, I could sense that Raphael has always held a mocking attitude towards this world where the strong create the rules. It seems that he also possesses another kind of universal value."
Susie was also a little curious: "Other values?"

"I don't know what it is either, and Raphael's mocking attitude probably didn't even make him realize it." Audrey paused for a moment, then added:
"I was too naive before, and I thought things were too simple - well, or rather, I had thought about Raphael's analysis of the world before, but I didn't think about it too deeply."
After returning to the Mafia headquarters, Raphael couldn't help but smile.
He never expected that he would digest the "Fallen Angel's" potion so easily.
Then his smile vanished, because he didn't yet possess the extraordinary characteristics of a "serial killer."
After scratching his head, he started thinking about playing the "werewolf" again.
First, digest all the potions and be ready to advance at any time.
At that moment, Carter came in: "Boss, I have an appointment with Dawn Dantes. We're meeting at three o'clock this afternoon."
Raphael was taken aback; the opportunity to digest the potion had arrived.
Then he smiled and said, "You handled this matter very well."
He had initially thought that Dawn wouldn't see him, and that Carter would have to use some methods to arrange the meeting.
Carter scratched his head and said, "Boss, you should know this rich man before, right? The butler was about to refuse your request to meet, but after the butler reported to the rich man, he immediately agreed to the meeting."
Raphael thought about it carefully: "I don't remember extorting him."
At this moment, Raphael wondered if he had gone too far in playing the Godfather recently and become too well-known in Backlund.
Anyway, as long as we can meet smoothly, that's fine.
Around 2 p.m., Raphael arrived at 160 Berklund Street by carriage and, with the help of his butler, easily met the wealthy Dawn Dantes.
This is a middle-aged gentleman with deep gray eyes, impeccable attire, and an elegant yet weathered air; his gaze is sharp yet gentle.
In particular, his deep eyes and slightly weathered demeanor easily attracted the attention of widows.
Raphael stepped forward with a smile and said, "Hello, Mr. Dantès."
Upon meeting the man in person, he once again felt a sense of familiarity with the wealthy man before him.
He tried hard to recall this sense of familiarity, but all he could find was a continuous expanse of gray fog.
The other person stood up from the sofa: "Hello."
As the two shook hands, Raphael used the power attached to the white jade bead to scrutinize me towards Dantès!
Demi god!
Raphael almost jumped up on the spot!
He never expected that this wealthy man was actually a demigod!
This Mr. Dawn Dantes is the identity that Klein has been using in Backlund for more than half a year.
When he heard that Raphael wanted to see him, he was somewhat surprised, thinking that Raphael had discovered that he had investigated him.
So after Raphael's subordinate Carter left, Klein immediately entered "Above the Gray Mist" to perform divination.
He then saw a scene of a banquet.
Through spiritual perception, Klein realized that this meeting was because of Lady Matilda, whom he had met several times before.
This lady even asked someone to sound out Klein, inquiring whether he had any plans to start a new relationship with a lady recently.
Thanks to an incident caused by the "magic mirror" Arrodes, Dawn Dantes is the kind of person in his social circle who actively seeks out partners.
That was shortly after Klein returned to Backlund. Because he had important business to attend to, he asked Arrodes to impersonate him.
As a result, a guest came to visit, and unfortunately, they talked about the ladies. Within a few days, it was rumored that the wealthy Dawn Dantes not only liked innocent young girls, but also voluptuous young women and ladies with interesting stories.
In addition, Dawn's age was neither too young nor too old, and his humor and world-weary demeanor made him the object of many widows' affections.
But Klein never expected that Lady Matilda would seek Raphael's help!
Just how much does she want to get married?
After learning Raphael's purpose, Klein felt relieved and faced the meeting with composure.
When Raphael learned that the wealthy man in front of him was a demigod, he was only slightly taken aback before quickly regaining his composure and dealing with the man.
Because he knew very well that turning away at this point would be tantamount to suicide.
