Malena, of course, couldn't possibly be unaware of this.
After battling Serena for several hours without a clear winner.
Malena eventually had no choice but to suppress her aura, giving Serena, Rein, and Natasha a deep look before completely withdrawing her attack.
“Serena, the Nightbringer of the Golden Court Clan, I cannot stop your tyranny.”
"But I advise you, Archbishop Alexander Corvinus, is not only a member of the Papacy, but also an official naval admiral, maintaining a fragile balance between light and darkness in Eastern Europe."
"This is one of the sources of darkness, the treasure trove of the Dark Council."
“If you continue to go your own way, you will absolutely be unable to bear the consequences of the balance being broken.”
Malena wasn't stupid; she could naturally see through it.
Behind Serena is the even more mysterious Rein, who is backing her up.
Serena glanced at Malena with disdain, dispelling her bloodlust, and obediently hugged Renn's arm, looking like a little woman.
"You scumbag, Malena's faith has been shaken, are you satisfied now?"
Renn smiled without saying a word, his gaze finally settling on Malena.

Chapter 148 The Blood Cross Order's Surrender (Please Subscribe)
It's a foregone conclusion that the government, the Vatican, and the Dark Council are colluding with each other, creating a complex web of light and darkness.
Malena herself knew this, but she was simply afraid to face the consequences of her faith collapsing.
In fact, when they saw Rein, Natasha, and Serena appear together.
Malena knew that her mission was doomed to fail.
These three women, Serena and Natasha, not only gave Malena an extremely strong sense of crisis, but when facing Rein, Malena felt as if she were facing an abyss.
Raine and Natasha came from Russia and almost never concealed their presence.
Especially since Raine and Natasha had just accomplished something significant in the Russian Bear Kingdom, directly dealing with the immortal sorcerer monk who had been impossible for hundreds of years.
The Vatican, fully aware of the close connection between Serena and Renn, still sent themselves.
This already proves that what Serena said about the sordid things was true.
Within the Papacy, having one vampire clan serving is enough.
In times of war and chaos, groups like Malena and the Blood Cross Warring States are good.
But nowadays, peace is the mainstream.
A vampire with perfect blood, capable of bearing holy light, and also skilled in making money, wielding power, and engaging in politics, would be far more useful than Malena and the Blood Cross Order.
This mission was essentially sending Malena and the others to their deaths.
Malena and the Blood Cross Order's faith was too devout and inflexible.
Furthermore, over 90% of Malena and the Blood Cross Warring States members came from the former town of Casticuto, which in itself was a potential threat.
After understanding all of this.
To fight Serena with all her might was Malena's final act to herself.
Just as Malena had predicted.
Serena alone has the power to threaten him, or even defeat him.
And the power of that Raine is even more unfathomable.
Otherwise, the opponent wouldn't have been able to so easily and effortlessly maintain the stability of the magic circle space with a casual burst of energy, allowing them to withstand their full-force battle.
Inside Český Krumlov Castle.
Marlena stood there blankly for a long time before finally meeting Renn's gaze.
Renn nodded and smiled, his admiration for Malena evident in his eyes.
Malena bit her lower lip, as if she had made an extremely difficult decision, and asked, "You want to sleep with me?"
"Hiss!" Raine rubbed his waist, but still said cleanly and neatly, "Not bad, you have a primordial yin body, the pure yin energy in your body is the innate profound yin of the vampires, and you have cultivated the holy power of light for many years, forming a very special power."
“I can feel that this special power is very beneficial to my cultivation.”
"Of course, dual cultivation is all about mutual consent and mutual affection. I even prefer being passive..."
Ryan's words were so direct that Malena blushed.
Even Serena and Natasha were a little annoyed and jealous.
Immediately thereafter, in Malena's field of vision.
It was unclear what Rein said to Natasha and Serena, but the two women immediately burst into laughter.
That smile was relaxed and genuine.
Upon seeing this, Malena's face immediately fell.
The scheme to sow discord failed.
That's right, Malena deliberately spoke so frankly in front of Natasha and Serena.
While one may possess a pure and holy aura, one still needs to use one's brain.
Malena still has one last trump card up her sleeve.
If Renn, Natasha, and Serena were to have some time to fight amongst themselves, Malena was confident that she could escape with the Blood Warriors.
Unfortunately, Malena's unexpected attempt to sow discord was instantly seen through by Renn.
Ryan appeased the two stupid women with just one damn sentence.
Throughout the entire process, Malena could even sense an extremely special power enveloping her and the Blood Warriors.
The man opposite seemed nonchalant, but in reality, he was extremely skilled.
It was as if all of my plans had been seen through by the other party long ago.
Things have come to this point.
Marlena had given up all hope of escaping and looked calmly at Renn, saying, "Your Majesty, Marlena is willing to lead the Blood Cross Warring States to serve you."
As she spoke, Malena removed all her armor, reverting to her original black dress.
Immediately afterwards, Malena came before Raine, bowed her head and knelt down to show her submission.
Led by Malena, nearly a thousand members of the Blood Cross Warring States also knelt down on one knee.
Renn then revealed a satisfied smile, casually lifting the other's chin and saying, "Aren't there any other conditions?"
Malena looked at her calmly and said, "No."
Renn smiled and said, "Marlena, you are very smart, smarter than I thought."
A flicker of emotion crossed Malena's eyes, and a tremor ran through her heart.
As Ryan said, Malena is very smart, smarter than many people imagine.
If she weren't clever, Malena wouldn't have been able to maintain her innocence and gain a respectable reputation in Sicily as a young widow during decades of war.
If she hadn't been so clever, Malena would have died on the night the vampires attacked the city.
If she weren't smart enough, Malena wouldn't have been able to obtain power from the Holy See as a vampire.
If she weren't smart, Malena wouldn't have been able to pull the Blood Cross Order into the Vatican's weapon.
If she hadn't been so clever, Malena would have been discarded by the Papacy long before the war ended.
So-called piety, so-called loyalty.
All of this was simply Malena's forbearance due to her lack of power, and her desperate struggle and self-preservation in the face of overwhelming forces.
This was accompanied by Malena's surrender, where she relinquished everything.
Raine lightly traced his fingers across his face, finally landing on his forehead, drawing a rune-like restriction.
The strange runic restrictions quickly spread throughout his body like a stream.
Immediately afterwards, following that unique bloodline connection, it spread to the thousands of vampire nuns of the Blood Cross Order.
Once the restriction was lifted, Raine withdrew his finger.
"Now, Malena, tell me everything you know, Gong?"
"To atone for one's crimes through meritorious service."
"This is my forgiveness and my blessing to you."

Chapter 149 The Conspiracy of the Jinting Clan
In the town of Český Krumlov, Rein's arrangements for Malena and the Blood Cross Order were not excessive.
Whether it's Malena or the Blood Cross, they are essentially a group of war survivors.
