Generous to a Fault

Uchiha Ying Yue stood on the training ground, pondering how to earn Destiny Points more efficiently.

The system had told Ying Yue that Destiny Points could be earned mainly in two ways: by gaining others' approval and by changing the fate of the Ninja World.

For Ying Yue, the latter was still a distant goal. The former seemed easier, but how exactly could he gain people's approval? It was certainly a broad concept.

Ying Yue knew there were many ways to earn others' approval.

Would helping people and earning their gratitude count? What about showing off his strength and winning their respect? Or resolving a crisis? In theory, all of these could earn him people's respect and trust.

But he needed to test them to be sure. Ying Yue decided to make a detailed plan so he could earn Destiny Points more effectively.

Over the next few days, Uchiha Ying Yue was active in every corner of Konoha, enthusiastically helping the villagers.

His actions caused quite a stir in the village, and many people began to see the Uchiha boy in a new light.

Ying Yue helped the village elders carry heavy things, tend their gardens, and even chat with them to ease their loneliness.

He helped many children find their lost pets, bringing joy to the children and relief and gratitude to their parents. He also volunteered to repair damaged houses, ensuring that everyone had a safe and comfortable place to live.

Uchiha Ying Yue's good deeds made the villagers remark, "Has that Uchiha kid had a change of heart? He's so warm and kind. Aren't the Uchiha supposed to be aloof, serious, and unapproachable, with a superiority complex?"

Ying Yue's actions gradually changed the villagers' opinions of him. They began to think he wasn't much like a traditional Uchiha.

After several days of hard work, Uchiha Ying Yue had managed to accumulate some Destiny Points, but the pace was still too slow. He had only collected 100 points. At this rate, he could still obtain Wood Release, but it would take far too long. To grow stronger faster, Uchiha Ying Yue decided to try other ways of earning Destiny Points quickly.

During those days, Ying Yue had helped many villagers and gradually learned more about Konoha.

Uchiha Ying Yue noticed that the village orphanage was in dire straits. Most of the children there were war orphans, and their living conditions were extremely poor.

In this troubled Ninja World, there was no shortage of people with tragic fates. The orphanage was also desperately short on funds, barely able to keep running and provide the children with the necessities.

Ying Yue came up with a plan: he would quickly earn Destiny Points by funding the Konoha Orphanage.

Was Uchiha Ying Yue wealthy?

The answer was yes—very wealthy!

When Ying Yue sorted through his memories, he discovered that the inheritance left by his parents, who came from the Uchiha and Senju Clans, was staggering. Was this the foundation of a clan with a thousand years of history? Both his parents had been powerful elite jonin, and his grandparents seemed to have been former elders of the Uchiha and Senju Clans, leaving him an enormous inheritance.

Uchiha Ying Yue sat in his room, leafing through the sealing scrolls his parents had left behind.

He was astonished. His wealth far exceeded his expectations. He had more than 200 million ryo in cash alone. At the Bounty Exchange, that could buy six heads of Sarutobi Asuma.

Ying Yue decided to donate a large sum to the Konoha Orphanage, ensuring the children could live better lives and earning himself a great many Destiny Points.

Uchiha Ying Yue carried a relatively small sealing scroll, its considerable weight filling him with a strange sense of excitement and anticipation.

The scroll held about one million ryo—a considerable sum to anyone.

Ying Yue walked briskly along the streets of Konoha, eventually reaching the Konoha Orphanage on the edge of the village.

The building was a little old, but it gave off a warm, welcoming feeling.

The children spent their childhoods here. Though they were not well-off, the place was filled with love and care.

Uchiha Ying Yue stood at the entrance, took a deep breath, and gently pushed the door open.

As soon as he stepped into the yard, he was met with the children's laughter and carefree innocence.

They were playing in the yard, chasing one another and laughing, their faces beaming with smiles.

Uchiha Ying Yue had learned from the villagers that the orphanage was run by Yakushi Kira. A few days earlier, he had seen her buying food for the Konoha Orphanage on the village streets. He had chatted with Yakushi Kira and lent a hand, learning about the orphanage's situation.

Yakushi Kira was a kindly old woman, around sixty years old. Her hair was white, and her face was lined with the marks of time.

Her gentle eyes held a quiet strength and wisdom, and she radiated a motherly warmth.

Kira had once been a veteran medical ninja of Konoha. After retiring, she had founded the Konoha Orphanage in the village's early years, taking in many children who had lost their parents to war or other causes.

When Ying Yue next saw Yakushi Kira, she was just stepping out of the orphanage building.

A little girl stood beside her. Kira wore a warm smile as she spotted Uchiha Ying Yue. "Little Ying Yue, what brings you here?"

"Let me introduce you. This is my granddaughter, Yakushi Nonō."

"Nonō, this is Uchiha Ying Yue, a kind and helpful boy."

Just then, Ying Yue's gaze fell on Yakushi Nonō. His heart stirred as he immediately recognized the ninja who played an important role in the original story.

"Are you Yakushi Nonō?" Ying Yue asked tentatively.

Yakushi Nonō nodded slightly, a hint of wariness in her expression. "Yes, I'm Yakushi Nonō."

Ying Yue knew the little girl had a complicated background in the original story, but he decided not to dwell on it for now and focus on what was in front of him.

"Director Kira," Ying Yue continued, "I came today to discuss something important."

"I've decided to donate one million ryo to the orphanage. I hope it can improve the children's living conditions and give them a better environment to grow up in."

Kira's eyes widened with surprise and gratitude. "Ying Yue, you're really willing to give us that much money? This is wonderful news for the children."

Yakushi Nonō's expression softened a little, and she looked at Ying Yue with greater respect. "Ying Yue, your generosity is admirable. But I can't accept it. The Uchiha Clan may be wealthy, but one million ryo is still a lot. You have expenses of your own, don't you, little Ying Yue?"

Uchiha Ying Yue nodded. "I have plenty of money. This is less than a tenth of what I own. Just think of it as a contribution toward improving the orphanage. I believe you'll put it to good use. The children need more care and support, and I'm happy to do what I can to help them."

Kira clasped Ying Yue's hand, deeply moved. "Ying Yue, we'll use this money wisely and make sure the children can live better lives. You're a great benefactor to them. Thank you."

Uchiha Ying Yue felt a warmth in his heart. He knew he had made the right decision.

Not only would this help the children at the orphanage, it would also earn him more Destiny Points and make him stronger.
