On that day, he became the captain of a ghost ship.

On that day, he stepped through the thick fog and confronted a completely subverted and fragmented world—the old order had vanished, strange phenomonoms dominated the endless seas beyond civilized society, and isolated island city-states and fleets of ships challenged the sea that had become the last ember of lights for the civilized world. All of this while the shadows of the old days were still stirring in the deep sea, waiting to to devour this world that was about to die.

But for the new captain of the ghost ship Vanished, there was only one question he had to consider first— Who knows how to drive this ship?!

Riser traveled to the world of novels and became a villain. The first thing he does when he transmigrates is to retire from the engagement!I've seen this kind of villain routine in several novels, I didn't expect to experience it myself. Even so, I have to survive in this brainless novel world.But what happened next surprised Riser.Rias: “Riser, do you know the difference between you and the stars?”Riser asked in confusion. “What's the difference?”Rias: “Stars are in the sky, but you're in my heart!”Riser: “.... (Something is wrong with this woman. What about protagonist? What about the plot? As heroine, why don't you have any self-awareness!)”Grayfia: “Riser, you have helped me many times. If you want, I can promise you my body and heart.”Riser: “Cough, cough! That's an interesting idea. What about your fiancé?”Grayfia: “Fiancé? You mean Issei? I never recognized him as my fiancé. I hate him.”Looking at the heroines who were sucking up to him and ignoring protagonist, Riser felt very tired.“Sorry protagonist, these heroines don't want to be with you. Why not find another woman out there?”Seeing the heroines with villain, protagonist angry and vomits blood.Riser had no other choice but to bully protagonist to death.
