Chapter Two-Hundred-and-Forty-Eight
After catching the cloudfin herring, it seemed Adam’s fortune had turned, because he quickly caught a second, and then a third. After that, he didn’t get anything for over half an hour, so he decided to relocate to the western edge near the market, where he caught his first cloudfin trout.

After that he caught a cloud lobster, which had a very light and translucent body, with narrow blade-like pincers and a sail-like tail on its flexible carapace.

Adam managed to catch another trout before the sun fully set, and he now had more than enough to sell in order to buy the upgrades he needed to evolve. He still needed to use his challenge stone afterwards and he wanted to do more training with shaping his slime body, but he was glad that his time spent fishing had been fruitful.
Part of him had been hoping to catch something like the legendary blue vein spirit that Beck had caught, because it had given him a boost to his luck for free, but Beck had said it took three days to catch, and that was despite knowing the river it swam in. Adam had no such intel on any super rare fish swimming around in the clouds below Interim.
When he went to find Fisher by the pond near his house, she wasn’t anywhere to be seen, and he ended up wasting half an hour searching the island for her in the dark, before finding her behind the dimensional tavern, fighting with a tree that her fishing line had gotten stuck in.
