getImageUrl() returning nothing in Magento 2.3.5 -p1 version

Question

I want to get all categories name and image URL(to show image) to show on the storefront but when I am using function getImageUrl() and getImage() returns nothing. Why this is happening can anyone help me?.I am using Magento 2.3.5 -p1 version. I am using the following code for block-

<?php
namespace Demo\GetAllCategories\Block;
class DisplayAllCategory extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template {
 protected $_categoryHelper;
 protected $categoryFactory;
 protected $_catalogLayer;
 public function __construct(
 \Magento\Catalog\Block\Product\Context $context, 
 \Magento\Catalog\Helper\Category $categoryHelper, 
 array $data = []
 ) {
 $this->_categoryHelper = $categoryHelper; 
 parent::__construct(
 $context, 
 $data
 );
 }
 /**
 * Retrieve current store level 2 category
 *
 * @param bool|string $sorted (if true display collection sorted as name otherwise sorted as based on id asc)
 * @param bool $asCollection (if true display all category otherwise display second level category menu visible category for current store)
 * @param bool $toLoad
 */
 public function getStoreCategories($sorted = false, $asCollection = false, $toLoad = true)
 {
 return $this->_categoryHelper->getStoreCategories($sorted , $asCollection, $toLoad);
 }
}

Phtml code-

<?php
 $categorys = $this->getStoreCategories(false,false,true);
 
 
 foreach($categorys as $category){
 echo $category->getName();
 ?>
 <br>
 <?php
 echo $category->getId();
 ?>
 <br>
 <?php
 echo $category->getImageUrl();
 ?>
 <br>
 <?php
 echo $category->getUrl();
 }
?>

$category->getImageUrl() is a right code to get image url of the category.

But you have to load that data from category model factory of as per below.

$category = $objectManager->get('Magento\Catalog\Model\CategoryFactory')->create()->load($cat_id);
$category->getImageUrl();

Use dependency injection instead of objectmanager.

Enjoy your coding !!! :)
