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

When Duncan opened his eyes, everyone instantly gathered around.


The translucent ghostly green fire was still burning quietly in the folds of the shroud. Duncan blinked and extinguished the flame before it could fully consume the shroud. Then, after taking a moment to collect himself, he started to piece together the information he had just seen while turning his gaze toward the "sailor."


That mummified corpse stood a bit farther away, simultaneously keeping its distance and yet, unable to help itself, craning its neck to peek over here, looking hesitant and uncertain.


"Aunt Duncan, what did you see?" Nina came over and tugged at Duncan's arm, looking up at him with a face full of concern and curiosity.


"...Captain Karan's memories," Duncan breathed out, not keeping everyone in suspense, "This contains the experiences of the Sea Song after it got lost and the process of returning home..."


The "sailor" instantly perked up its ears, unconsciously taking small steps closer.
