This is a story about how the protagonist becomes a fish pond master. — Starts with just a steel fork; everything else is earned through grinding. While others chosen by the system end up as kings, chosen ones, or at the very least, underdogs seeking revenge, his damn system wants him to become a fish pond master! Though Shi Yu has a thousand reasons to resist, under the brainwashing power of the old dog system’s theme song, he has no choice but to pick up his rusty steel fork and plastic bucket to embark on the path of becoming a fish pond master (or a sea overlord). Others might think his daily life is all about catching fish and feasting on seafood, but in reality, it goes more like this… [Orca: I was here first! Whether being caught or released, it was all me first!] [Dolphin: I was here early too! Why did you choose him?!] [Dugong: I’m the real mermaid! Are you really falling for that ‘Western moon is rounder’ nonsense?! Why him?!] Protagonist: Shut up, you’re all MY fish! Siren: Hmph. [System: Buddy, this is the Fish Pond Master System, not the Sea Overlord System.] Protagonist: Whose fault is that? *** Slice-of-life × Beachcombing × Base-building × System, slow-burn warning, bottom protagonist. CP: Goofy, absurd youth (bottom) × Temperamental, violent tsundere (top), 1v1. Disclaimers: Slow-burn daily life; protagonist swears like a sailor. Note: The author has never seen the ocean in their life. Fish farming/beachcombing knowledge mostly comes from Baidu and friends—anything unanswered is pure fiction.
