Chapter 152 Serene lake

Walking through the unforgiving desert, Lucifer's senses were attuned to any sign of respite. The endless dunes and scorching sun had taken a toll on him, and he longed for even the smallest hint of relief. Then, in the distance, he saw it—a shimmering expanse that seemed almost otherworldly amidst the barren landscape. As he drew closer, he realized it was a lake, its clear waters glistening invitingly under the relentless sun.

The lake was a stark contrast to the harsh desert surroundings. Its waters were a deep azure, reflecting the sky above. Palm trees dotted the edges, their fronds swaying gently in the slight breeze. The shoreline was composed of soft, white sand, and small, colorful flowers grew sporadically around the water's edge. The sight was both beautiful and surreal, a mirage come to life.
