Under the threat of a hefty fine, John Constantine had no choice but to stub out his cigarette, casually tucking the remaining half behind his ear.

"This is very abnormal."

John Constantine dragged the conversation back on track and continued on his own, "By the rules, those damned demons usually only possess humans or crawl into some cursed object to cause trouble. But lately, there have been several cases in a row of demons descending directly into the human world."

In the DC universe, Heaven and Hell were not legends, but places that truly existed.

Many years ago, God and Satan made a wager.

The human world was the board, human souls were the stakes, and they wagered on which side would claim more souls.

However, neither faction could directly interfere in human affairs. They could only exert influence indirectly, leaving humanity to choose for itself between good and evil.

Those who did good ascended to Heaven after death, while those who committed evil fell into Hell.

Thus, in their rush to meet their KPIs, both Heaven and Hell used their own methods to guide humanity.

Demons tempted people into depravity, while the Church urged them toward goodness.

This war over souls had gone on for countless ages, always limited to minor skirmishes. Angels and demons rarely set foot in the human world themselves.

But now, the balance that had endured for years had been broken.

Demons descending directly into the human world was undoubtedly an open violation of the agreement between Heaven and Hell.
