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?!"

Burned alive. Betrayed. Forgotten. Yet, from the depths of oblivion, he returns—his name erased, his past devoured by flames. What remains is something twisted, something reborn. Vorynxis is no hero. He is no savior. He is a seeker of truth in a world built on lies. His path is paved with embers, his power a fire that burns not just flesh, but reality itself. In a world where realms stack like pages of a never-ending story, where higher beings write destinies like ink on parchment, he is an anomaly—a flickering ember defying the grand design. To ascend is to rewrite fate. To reach beyond is to invite madness. But Vorynxis does not fear the abyss. He is the abyss. The world may try to silence him. The heavens may tremble. But in the end, all will burn to hollow ashes.

New trope (please try it, rewritten on 24.01.2024): Micheal von Shelb, a lazy genius with a penchant for offbeat inventions, wakes up to a brutal truth: he’s a side character in a multiverse of twisted romantic dramas where his family, future children, and even his legacy are casually erased by power-hungry authors. With Magda, his intelligent and no-nonsense wife (who’s also a supporting character in a “switched at birth” melodrama), Micheal vows to save their lives, protect their future, and rebuild the Empire through innovation and sheer audacity. Whether he's dodging political plots, perfecting horseless carriages, or making alliances with beastmen, Micheal has one goal: to carve a space where he and Magda can thrive, far from the claws of a cruel narrative. But the fate has other plans. As ancient rivalries between archmages, devils, and mythical creatures like mermaids resurface, Micheal’s quiet dream spirals into chaos. With wit sharper than a rapier and an unstoppable resolve, Micheal proves that even a side character can rewrite the script. Between inventing futuristic solutions and saving the day, Micheal’s true mission is impressing Magda, who may or may not be secretly stalking him from the foyer. Meanwhile, Micheal himself adjusts his routine to catch glimpses of Magda while pretending not to care. An average day in their life: 1:00 PM: Magda: “I must be punctual to observe my husband training in the garden—from my foyer, of course.” 1:15 PM: Micheal: “Must finish the training early to sneak a peek at my wife reading in her study—from the dining hall window. Definitely not creepy.” With its blend of humor, heartfelt romance, and action-packed multiverse chaos, Breaking the Multiverse is a read for those who enjoy clever protagonists, daring inventions, and a relationship that's equal parts banter and devotion—NO HAREM, just one unforgettable wife. The first volume is for the general audience, the second volume is for people who prefer to sip wine as they read. You can start reading from the second volume of you find the first volume too boring. ----- There are three couples: ML (genius, stalker) x FL (prodigy, stalker) 2ML (soldier) x 2FL (knight) 3ML (soldier) x 3FL (a court lady)

Discord: https://discord.gg/XuCwbVEh Nevalis, a nobleman from the Kingdom of Phillirion, thought of nobles as the ones he read about in books. A noble title did not mean money or power, but rather had deeper, higher values symbolizing responsibility and honor, for those who lived with the saying "with power comes responsibility ".  But when Nevalis went out into the world, he did not find it as he had imagined. Reality hit him in the face. Those bastards aren't nobles! Who do they think they are? They tarnished the noble title! They don't deserve that title anymore!" "I will be a true nobleman, a nobleman of all the nobles who have passed this world!" Nevalis seeks to truly redefine nobility, to fulfill his dream of becoming a true nobleman, more noble than all those who held the title before him. The plot revolves around his personal journey, which brings a combination of suffering, sacrifices, and ascent towards his goal, in the face of a cruel world full of illusions and deviations.
