Staff, Magic and Breath of the Dragon

The rain kept falling. Ironclad Dragon City, this forgotten old city on the northern border, the bells of the Holy Dragon Church and the whispers of the believers intertwined in the cold rain, and monsters that had been sleeping for hundreds of years were slowly awakening in the shadows. Sheriff Erland Waffman just wants to protect his one-third of an acre - after working the night shift, he can go home to be with his sister Wen hope. However, on an ordinary rainy night, a shadow demon attacked him. He broke the heart of the Shadow Demon in a desperate situation, but was parasitically resurrected by the Shadow Demon. From then on, he was dragged into the dark side of the city: the blade of the gray-robed assassin, the fangs of the vampire count, the hunting ground of the man-eating monster, the threat of the church bishop in the shadow of the icon, and the huge waves of the constellation abyss under the eye patch of the director. Forced to live in symbiosis with the devil, Erland gained the strange ability to control shadows, but also lost his body temperature. Caught between the church and paganism, the country and the remnants of the empire, humans and demi-humans, he gradually became something unprecedented - an inspired person chosen by the Son of God, a "demon" contracted by the devil, a variable coveted by all forces at the same time. Every drop of rain whispers. Every shadow grows. When he had to devour a steel heart with his own hands, something took root in his chest. And those sleeping monsters are waking up one after another.
