The traumatized Henry has not spoken previously the accident. Workmen, who were restoring the abbey appropriately the intimates could sell it, depart after a sinister fire.

In Rome, the Pope becomes ill though reading documents not quite the Spanish case, and is hospitalized.

Amorth plus finds the Church covered this up, and eventually discovers the make known of Henry's demon, Asmodeus, which will urge on the exorcism.
Amorth and Esquibel participate in the sacrament of response and Absolution, mutually confessing, and absolving each further of, their sins: that after Amorth, an Italian partisan, survived World achievement II and vowed to serve God in gratitude, a mentally-ill girl asked for Amorth's help, and died by suicide afterward he did not put up to her due to pride; and Esquibel fornicated with a juvenile woman he did not complex marry. The two ready themselves; Amorth instructs Esquibel to wear a Miraculous Medal necklace. During the exorcism, they have miserable visions of the women whom they failed. The exorcism succeeds unaided next Amorth offers himself to be possessed, which chimes behind Asmodeus's since stating that he wants to destroy Amorth.
