This could only have happened by putting Kali's repositories into /etc/apt/sources.list or in a file under /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and then doing an "apt update" or equivalent, before you did "apt upgrade". > I want to comeback to Debian.

You could possibly, MAYBE, just put in the repositories for Debian unstable and HOPE that the package versions of everything are high enough that a dist-upgrade gets you back to Debian, but: 1. It probably wont get you back to Debian but some Frankendebian that still has traces of Kali in it. It's not a supported operation. 2. The chances of doing this without breaking the whole system are slim, and then you end up reinstalling anyway after spending many hours. 3. You'd still end up on debian unstable (sid), not Debian stable (buster). Also, I am not sure that Kali Linux supports being installed as an upgrade from Debian stable. If not then what you have now is very likely already some sort of Frankendebian because it'll still have some Debian packages on it. As Kali is a derivative of Debian this might not be disastrous though. It's still not ideal even if you did want Kali. Basically this was a very bad thing to do. Sorry. Reinstall from backups is my advice. Cheers, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
