Ashes Of Deep Sea

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?!"

Chapter 162 "Niru

Duncan quietly observed "Niru," which was placed in a box.

The jointed doll was just a very ordinary one, reminiscent of the "court maiden" style popular in the City-State a century ago, with beautiful golden curls and a lace-adorned dress. The joints in her arms were the old-fashioned spherical type, even more evident than those of Alice. Her face was made of porcelain, displaying the old-fashioned characteristic seams at the mouth and eyes.

Frankly, the doll was exquisitely made and kept in exceedingly good condition, making it hard to believe that it had been lying in a box for a century. Though it couldn't compare with Alice, whose doll-like appearance was almost indistinguishable from a real person, this little one named "Niru" could also be described as beautiful.

A hundred years ago, Lukrecia had bought another doll "Luny" from this shop, a pair with this little one, and now, "Niru," who had been left behind, was lying quietly in the box, lying in front of Duncan.
