Are You the Law Knight Here to Arrest Me?

"Increase the chance of hooking a Fish King!"

Linsey's memories were instantly drawn back to several years ago.

Among his countless fishing experiences, the only time he had ever caught a Fish King was on that stormy night in the Courtyard in the Forest.

The value of a Fish King absolutely crushed that of ordinary catches.

And this tiny maggot before him could increase his chances of catching one!
