Duncan Abnomar was transmigrated to a magical world.
Most of the lands of the world had sunken, and the surviving humans could only live on islands. Due to an unknown reason, the world was also contaminated and strange phenomena and things would randomly appear.
Humans had developed steam gear technology, and the islands were connected through boats. They survived by studying strange phenomena that happened all around the world.
However, as the captain of a scary-looking ghost ship, Duncan was facing a huge challenge.
"How the heck do I steer this ship?"
Highly recommended by experienced editor: MC is transmigrated to a world mostly covered in water and far from civilization. He becomes the captain of the ghost ship, the 'Homeloss'. He steers through the fog and adventures through the broken world and the unknown deep sea. As he discovers the ruins of abandoned civilization, he would also stumble into the war between the strange phenomena and the devil gods.
The story takes place in a combination of ocean and Chutly mythology world, a new and interesting background. It’s an attractive story to read due to the author’s sense of humor and mastery over the ambiance of the story.

Another-style introduction:
"On that day, a thick fog engulfed everything. 
On that day, he became the captain of a ghost ship. 
On that day, he crossed the dense fog and faced a completely overturned and shattered world – the former order was completely gone, and peculiar phenomena dominated the endless seas beyond civilized society. 
The island city-states and the fleets challenging the sea have become the only lights of civilization left, while the shadows of old days still lurk in the deep sea, waiting to devour this dying world again. 
But for the new captain, there's only one pressing question – Does anyone know how to sail this damn ship?!"

Ashes Of Deep Sea

The small knife, carved from black bone, lightly grazed the rough bark, leaving inconspicuous patterns on these lush, towering trees, before blood was smeared upon them, infusing them with the power of spirit and blood. The blood was applied three times to each marking, in this repetitive cycle...


Richard was performing the ritual incantations from memory, using the bone knife in his hand to carve runes symbolizing abyssal power on forest tree trunks, and then smearing his own blood onto the runes. Subsequently, he looked up to see Dumon doing the same nearby.


He walked over as if to greet the other.


"These symbols are weak on their own," Dumon said as he saw Richard approaching, speaking offhandedly, "but if we have enough of them, they will have a significant impact on Silantis."


"It's still not enough... Far from enough..." Richard muttered indistinctly, his fingers idly twirling the bone knife in his hand.
