Forbidden Curse Descends (Two-in-One)

"China, Japan, Australia, the United States..."

"The low-temperature disease has tormented every resident along the coast. Many have fallen into comas, and some have even frozen to death in their sleep. It is our alliance's responsibility to stop this catastrophe, and a duty for everyone here."

"The infected humans' energy has been falling out of control. That, too, is the Parasitic Demon's doing."
