Chapter 393: Reality of Cadelis

As Damon stepped foot into Cadelis, the sight that greeted him was nothing short of horrifying. The state of the city was far worse than he had been informed. Ruined buildings stood as haunting reminders of the once vibrant and prosperous place it had been. Military checkpoints dotted the landscape, serving as grim reminders of the ongoing conflict that had ravaged the area.

His heart sank as he witnessed the plight of the city's inhabitants. Starving children with sunken eyes and frail bodies wandered the streets, their desperate cries for help echoing through the chaos. Damon's usually composed facade faltered, and he felt a surge of emotions threatening to burst forth. This was not the kind of chaos he was accustomed to as a demon lord. This was the raw suffering of mortals, and he found it deeply unsettling.

"What the hell is this?" Damon hissed under his breath, his voice laced with a mix of anger, frustration, and sympathy for the people caught in the crossfire.
