Although the only symptom looks like a cold for the demon, the human body can’t tolerate the aggressiveness of this virus. When infected, the body goes through necrosis. In the worst case, it will lead to death. Chiharu has been infected with the virus caused by nursing Laurem when she caught it and she almost died.
