The Doomed City

Michael's territory was flourishing, and the Untamed Jungle's outer ring had been restored to its previous glory at last.

Meanwhile, Xiltra had become a living hell.

After the Jungle Expedition failed, and only three out of 13 Paladins returned alive, Xiltra's atmosphere grew heavier by the day.

Xiltra's citizens were worried about the Untamed Jungle's Curse and that the unknown existences hiding within the shadows of the Untamed Jungle would charge and attempt to destroy the border city.

But something like that never happened.

However, that didn't mean Xiltra's condition remained the same. No, everything changed after the three surviving Paladins returned.

The Paladin's health deteriorated, and they fell into a coma. Not even the best healers of the border city were able to tend to the Paladins' issues. They were oblivious to the disease that affected the three Tier-3 Paladins.
