This is a glass of Victorian fantasy novel.
Add a spoonful of steam engine to make the damn technology tree move! Add a spoonful of love and hatred, so that everyone has a reason to fight! Add a spoonful of neurosis to make this dark world easier, and finally add a spoonful of natural disasters to be the main boss...wait! Worry is too much!
...
The melody is tortuous and melodious, the hideous city is looming in the fog, and the steam engine is pushing the world forward, but in the shadow of this technology, the owners of the old age are ready to move.
The second-rate detective carried his Winchester and wandered in the collapsed and reborn city, humming a little song with cigarettes in his mouth.
"Friend, do you need detective services?"
This novel is pretty cool. The world is similar to earth but instead of systematic development of technology after steam engine, In this world people stopped development of any new source of energy. Instead they developed steam engine to extreme(kinda)….
MC is a third grade detective who is smart and rational… The world is full of mystery and supernatural elements….
Terms are complete for first 250 chapters. Anyway give it a try…

This novel is a very rare , complete western fantasy novel by a cn author out there . Mc is no transmigrator but is a local born westerner . The world setting is at the apex of steam technology nearing the breakthrough to electricity(which should happen in this novel midway) . Chapters are anywhere from 2x to 3x of normal novels. Mc is very determined and wont allow any relation / feelings to affect his ultimate goal , but he also grows to becoming emotional and care about some people around him but rest assured that wont change his determination 1 bit. Novel have a lot of mysteries and they are unveiled very nicely , power ceiling isnt ridiculously high but it is filled to the brim with elemets of mystery. Side characters struggles and emotions very well written alongside our mc as well. Also this is the novel from Acasual pawn , dude mostly does good novels only. Definitely worth a try if you wanna get away from cliches.

I found out background story of this book is pretty similar to a game called “The Order : 1886”.
And I have read till ch. 110 and will try a few more chapters to decide whether to continue or drop it…
[Important point : Nine Summers mentioned in story is basically China.]
Now this is supposed to be a western story about humans fighting against demons with mysticism and technology while a demon hunter is the main character… but what I fail to understand is why does a supposedly western based story keeps mentioning a hundred times about eastern side and how mysterious and powerful they are… I mean introduction says it’s a Victorian fantasy novel so I started reading it, but it keeps dragging Nine Summers repeatedly and even cultivation shit is being mentioned by now too…
Also the story is good but it’s so slow and fights are so long and detailed that it’s annoying, plus too much mystery is involved everywhere and when they pile up it kind of feels irritating.
