As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 10
Advertisement
The sky was bright, but when the Monn father and daughter arrived at the bank of the River Gaia.
They found that there were already many people fishing in thick clothes!
He could only say that the people who liked fishing were a magical existence in any era!
They found their usual place.
Monn put down the fish bucket and the small stool and asked Alma to sit on it obediently.
Then, he took out the box of "exquisite fish food" from the lucky draw yesterday!
"Father Monn, why haven't you used this kind of fish bait before?"
Although Little Alma didn't know how to fish, she was influenced by what she heard.
She was still familiar with the set of fishing equipment.
Monn smiled slightly and waved the "exquisite fish food" in his hand, saying mysteriously.
"This is the trump card that Father Monn prepared! That is the favorite fish food of the fish!"
"Today, Father Monn will catch two fish soon!"
Little Alma curled her lips, obviously not believing him.
Monn felt that he was being looked down upon by a little girl, and he was suddenly a little unconvinced!
"Watch that!"
He opened the box, and there were worm trunks in the box.
He took one out and hooked it onto the hook.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the fishing line formed a perfect arc and fell into the river in the distance.
"Just wait. It will be soon... Hmm?"
Monn suddenly felt a strong force coming from the fishing rod before he could finish his sentence.
"It can't be. Is it that exquisite?"
Monn was a little surprised that a fish hooked on it so quickly!
The fishing line moved left and right on the surface of the water and was snapped tightly.
Monn could easily pull a fish as a Holy Rank expert.
Not long after, the force from the fishing rod became much weaker!

Monn pulled hard, and a fat salmon that was forty to fifty centimeters long was dragged to the surface of the water by him!
"Hahaha! Alma, see! Is papa great? I caught such a big fish so quickly!"
"Wow! Papa is amazing!"
Alma's big eyes lit up. She believed Monn this time!
After all, it was not like she had never gone fishing with Monn before.
Most of the time, they waited for an hour without catching anything...
A big man with a full beard who was beside them stared at Monn in shock.
He had arrived more than an hour earlier than Monn!
In the end, he got nothing. Monn had just arrived, and he had already caught such a big fish!
"Hey! Brother, are you a newbie?"
The anglers all believed in the newbie halo!
Usually, newbies who didn't have much experience and wouldn't choose spots, nest, and so on could catch more and faster than many veterans!
Monn was happy in his heart, and he didn't mind giving the man, who had an empty bucket, some psychological comfort.
"Yeah! I just caught a few days ago!"
"No wonder... let me tell you, it's best to catch salmon in this season!"
"As long as you build a good nest and get some sawgrass bait that salmons like, it's no problem to catch a dozen of them every day!"
The bearded man was a talkative person.
Monn chatted with him, and then he threw out his second shot!
"Let me tell you, this pit... eh?"
Before the bearded man could finish his sentence, he saw Monn's fishing rod bend down again!
He opened his mouth, feeling that there was no need for him to continue!
Was the newbie halo that powerful?
The bearded man was filled with grief and indignation.
Monn had already been struggling with the second big fish for nearly a minute!

The strength of that fish was very great.
That caused Monn afraid to use any strength at all!
He had already used this fishing rod for two years. He was afraid that the fishing rod would crack and break if he used any strength!
Fortunately, as a Holy Rank expert, Monn's control of strength was great.
The big fish was still not Monn's match, even if it was strong in the water.
The bearded man gave up his fishing rod after Monn pulled the big fish for more than a minute and went behind Monn!
"Brother! You're lucky, big fish!"
As everyone knew, the anglers liked to see big fish take the bait the most!
Big was everything!
It didn't matter what kind of fish it was as long as the fish was big enough!
Monn pulled the big fish with ease and turned to look at the bearded man. He smiled and said humbly.
"It's normal. I often catch this kind of fish!"
As he said that, the strength coming from the fishing rod was already weak!
The big fish no longer had any strength!
Mon smiled slightly and directly lifted the fishing rod with force.
Under the fishing line, a super big fish that was 80 to 90 centimeters long was gently swinging its tail!
"Father Monn is so awesome!"
Little Alma jumped up from the side and clapped her little hands excitedly!
Behind her, the bearded man smacked his lips.
"Brother, do you have any skills?"
He did not want to teach Monn anymore this time.
Monn pulled the big fish up and pretended to think.
Then, he said calmly, "You have to bring a lucky charm!"
"For example, my daughter is my lucky charm!"
Little Alma raised her little face happily and had a broad smile on her face!
"That makes sense... I'll bring my daughter here tomorrow too!"
The bearded man seemed to be deep in thought, causing Monn and Little Alma to burst into laughter.
The first fish was more than 40 centimeters long, and the second one was 80 to 90 centimeters long!
Monn's fish barrel could not even hold it this time!
Monn felt a little emotional upon looking at the "exquisite fish food" in his hands that he did not use much.
It seemed like there were still some useful things in the system's lucky draw!
"Let's go, Alma. We're not fishing today!"
Monn immediately put away the fishing rod after stuffing the big fish into the bucket.
"Father Monn, where are we going now?"
"Hmm...let's go to your Aunt Millie's place and let her teach you how to make fish soup, okay?"
"Okay!"
Alma said happily and then took the fishing rod for Monn obediently.
Behind him, the bearded man was still looking at the big fish in Monn's bucket.
Monn thought for a moment and took out two dried earthworms from the box of "exquisite fish food".
"Brother, try it!"
"This is the salmon's favorite... sawgrass-flavored earthworms!"
Monn winked at him, turned around, and left while holding Little Alma's hand after saying that.
The bearded man stared blankly at Monn's back as he left.
Then, he looked at the two dried earthworms in his hand.
After a while, he tried to hook the dried earthworm onto his hook.
The hook had only been in the water for five seconds!
"Fish! It took the bait!"
A big and dark salmon was pulled ashore by the bearded man after a while.
"God... how are these sawgrass-flavored dried earthworms made?"
The bearded man looked in the direction where Monn and Alma had left in a daze.
The two of them had gone far away!

The Dreamside Road
Five years after the world fell into chaos, a treasure of artifacts is up for grabs. The relics of the Dreamside Road offer a power that could help rebuild or annihilate what remains. Orson Gregory is an adventurer for hire, but hunts this treasure for answers, not glory. Enoa Cloud’s late aunt helped hide the Dreamside Road, but following in her aunt’s supernatural tradition offers her as much peril as power. Together, Orson and Enoa battle a magic-obsessed militia, clash with a host of rivals, and face constant adventure on their journey to find the Dreamside Road. *Updates Monday and Friday The Dreamside Road is now on TopWebFiction! Vote so people know this exists. _____________________________________ NOTE: The Progression tag applies specifically to Enoa. Also, fair warning, that element doesn't enter the story until she begins her studies. Content: Main characters range in age from teenagers to people in their thirties and older, but it will not contain gratuitous violence or explicit sexual content. It also won’t shy away from implication, anything to make this story and its world feel more real. Characters will freely allude to potentially triggering topics, including living with a disability, facing terminal illness, coping with trauma, surviving societal destabilization, and the consequences of bigotry. At its most intense, the Dreamside Road is a hard PG-13. Worldbuilding: This is not a story with a lot of early exposition scenes, conveniently explaining ‘magic systems’ and political dynamics. Readers will learn, progressively, as the characters do. This story/world has a ‘magic system’, or rather, a set of systems, but the effort to quantify and understand the truth of the setting plays a role in the backstory, as well as in some character motivations. In that same vein, not every character has a firm grasp on the nature of their world, and not every piece of dialog from every character should be taken as entirely truthful Worldbuilding. Also, this isn't the softest Sci-fi. There are at least some basic explanations given for various elements, but Royal Road does not give me a spectrum to choose from. Given the choice between hard and soft, let's just say The Dreamside Road won't be cited in any college Physics papers. Setting and Theme: The Dreamside Road walks the line between fantasy and science fiction and deals with finding one’s place in a changing world. Many of the characters in this story are United States natives and the story begins in the United States, my homeland. However, knowledge or interest in this country is not necessary to understand the story, especially as it progresses. Also, as this is a novel that deals with societal collapse and while that damage may be widespread, in story, I don’t want to overstep and critique the culture of others’ unless I have particular knowledge in a given area. Ultimately, the Dreamside Road is American in the same way Harry Potter is English, fantasies that do not have a full secondary world, but with enough original elements to fully diverge the setting from our the real world.
