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

Pilgrimage Ark—Ever since Duncan had laid eyes on these "giant ships" that resembled small City-States, ever since he learned of their unceasing pilgrimage across the sea, he'd harbored doubts about these astonishing creations.


What did the Pilgrimage Arks truly signify, and their peculiar "pilgrimage" activities... Were they merely "patrolling"?


People in the City-States often said that the Pilgrimage Arks represented the mighty powers of the Four Gods, they were the symbol of the Church's highest military force, as well as the "mobile palaces" of the four true gods in the mortal world. The Church commanded the arks to patrol the Endless Sea, to deter the heretics, to protect the City-States from contamination by malevolent beings from Subspace. Initially, Duncan hadn't doubted this explanation, but the more he dealt with the Church of the Four Gods, especially after learning more and more inside information from Fenna, Morris, and Agatha, he began to notice discrepancies.
