Chapter 62: Harvesting Virtue Again

Huh? An unexpected gain?

Catching a glimpse of the increased virtue, Winnie raised an eyebrow.

Wow, even this earns virtue, how exaggerated.

Originally, Winnie just came here to fish, but unexpectedly, he caught a big fish.

Although he came back empty-handed, he didn’t really come back empty-handed, after all, how can fish compare to the fragrance of virtue?

Thinking this, Winnie remembered a discounted item he had unintentionally picked out while buying gifts for the children at the orphanage a few days ago.

It was a very cute doll, exquisitely crafted, and even with the discount tag, it was still somewhat expensive.

Winnie didn’t know why he bought this doll, he didn’t need such a thing himself, but for some reason, he thought it was very beautiful, and since it was a discounted item, not buying it felt like a pity, as if not taking this bargain would kill him, so he bought it.

After a moment of hesitation, Winnie pondered whether his action might seem abrupt or offensive, but after much thought, he concluded that he was just a friend sending birthday wishes to a friend, what’s wrong with that??

Mirexia is a person of high moral character, and if she is willing, he would very much like to have such a friend.

Thinking this, Winnie felt relieved.

As for whether Mirexia would like this gift, Winnie, as her childhood friend, could guess some of her preferences based on past memories.

So he took out an exquisitely crafted box from his pocket and handed it to the blonde girl.

“Ahem, Princess, although today is the Queen’s memorial day, it is also your birthday after all, Happy Birthday to you, and here’s a humble gift.”

Mirexia was taken aback by Winnie’s gift and instinctively thanked him and accepted it.

Seeing her reaction, Winnie felt a bit awkward, after all, he had a history of always giving Mirexia some strange things, causing her to possibly have a stress reaction upon seeing his gifts.

“Can I open it here?” Mirexia did think of the strange and baffling things Winnie had given her before, but looking at the very girly decoration, she couldn’t help but feel a glimmer of hope.

Looking on the bright side, at least this time the decoration isn’t that weird, right?

“Of course.” It’s generally impolite to open gifts in front of the giver, but this isn’t the palace, there’s no need to stand on ceremony.

With Winnie’s permission, Mirexia opened the box to find an exquisitely crafted, cute blonde doll inside.

Mirexia’s pupils contracted slightly.

“I hope you like it, of course, if you don’t, it’s fine, just throw it in the river, I have no objections.” At this moment, Winnie was already packing up his fishing gear to go home.

Seeing Mirexia silent, Winnie packed up his tools, bowed to Mirexia, and bid farewell.

As for whether Mirexia liked the doll or not, the increased virtue had already told him.

‘Virtue +80’

‘Current Virtue: 214’

It seems, just as he guessed.

The birthday gifts from the nobles to the Princess were undoubtedly of high grade, mostly priceless gemstone jewelry, or exquisite silk dresses made from the finest materials, as well as weapons and armor forged by famous craftsmen.

Mirexia’s admirers and suitors would not hesitate to spend money and effort on the most dazzling gem of the kingdom.

However, perhaps only Winnie knew a little that Mirexia actually didn’t like those things.

To outsiders, Mirexia was a very practical and mature Princess, her favorite items were either practical weapons or beautiful jewelry.

But in fact, that was not the case.

Because she had been groomed as the heir to the kingdom since childhood, what Mirexia liked were actually those things she rarely had access to due to her status.

This unsmiling, diligent, and reliable Princess had lacked maternal love since childhood, and under pressure, she was groomed to be the heir to the kingdom; she never seemed to have been treated as a ‘delicate young girl’.

People were used to looking up to this prodigy, but no one knew what Mirexia was really thinking.

Although these feelings had gradually faded with the passing years, occasionally being treated as a young girl and given gifts unique to young girls, Mirexia would certainly not dislike it.

Therefore, giving a doll to other noble ladies would indeed be somewhat childish and inappropriate, but giving it to Mirexia was just right.

Hoho, harvesting virtue points again.

Winnie was in a very good mood, even humming a little tune, he didn’t expect to gain virtue points just by going out to fish.

He could stack virtue so smoothly, thanks to these female leads, among whom special thanks to Julliana, this fox’s efficiency in producing virtue was one against six, her status in Winnie’s heart had risen to the position of ‘top fan’.

If he were to rank his patrons, Julliana would undoubtedly be the top of the list, followed by Mirexia, as for Aesphyra, huh, what a jinx, let’s not talk about her!

Probably by the time he graduates from Carillian Academy, the virtue points she can provide him will be zero.

But even if Aesphyra could provide him with virtue points, Winnie wouldn’t want it.

Just kidding, you dare to harvest virtue points from the protagonist? That’s a matter of life and death.

Although he came back empty-handed today, Winnie was still very pleased, returning home and opening the virtue system.

Two hundred Virtue points, he can light up the skill tree again!

This time Winnie turned his attention to a spell called ‘Secondary Healing Orb’ from the [Saint Envoy] skill tree.

Although he already had intermediate healing magic, healing magic is just the most basic healing spell, with a very small range of effect.

The Healing Orb is different, it has a very wide healing range, basically as long as you can see where the person is, you can release the orb to lock onto the target and heal them.

However, the healing power of the Healing Orb is slightly weaker than that of the same level healing magic, its strength lies in its wide range.

After hesitating for a moment, Winnie chose this spell.

‘Virtue deducted 200’

‘Current Virtue: 14′

[Secondary Healing Orb] has been learned.’

The [Blessed Angel] state has been enhanced, Winnie cannot neglect the human state.

After all, [Blessed Angel] is more for emergencies, and most of the time, he can only face enemies in a normal human form, he also needs to find ways to enhance his regular combat strength.

“That damn bastard! He actually caused us to be stripped of our Wrathful Dragon Knight titles, and our Soul Armaments were confiscated! We worked so hard to get these!” Meanwhile, in a courtyard somewhere in the royal capital, a young man slammed his hand on the table in fury, causing the tea on the table to jump.

“……. What do you want to do? What’s done is done, what can we do?” Another young man was quite helpless.

“We can’t just let it go, I also want to make that bastard Winnie pay a heavy price!”
