Bishop Kaser of the National Church was sent to the Benevolent Church that very night due to a heart issue, and in the words of the Benevolent Church's doctors, if it wasn't for Malin's medical potion sustaining him followed by external cardiac compression surgery to pull him through, this old fox would have likely died on the spot.
Indeed, as a major figure of the black-robed faction of the National Church, Kaser Bishop relied on the various action squads he himself had trained, coupled with the collaboration between the black-robed and the Night Watchers, who were the Church's armed force operating under the guise of having everything under control, rendering others incapable of action. Yet, Malin, like a formidable dragon crossing the river, managed to thoroughly eliminate the root of the problem on both ends.
