Hill was delighted.
He had always wanted the thrill of making do with whatever the enemy left behind. But for someone who could make most materials with his own hands, that was hard to come by.
As for Divine Artifacts, they had only interested him a little when he was younger... He had already decided to give the foreign Divine Artifacts he rarely used to Oriana and the others when he returned. He would keep only Winter's Ring.
Come to think of it, Aglaia's stroke of inspiration back then had proved more useful to him. How frustrating.
His own creations were more practical than the rest.
His Crystal Fan and ring, in particular, had clearly begun to advance as his natural power and the power of the earth grew stronger.
So finished items no longer interested him much, even powerful Divine Artifacts.
Hill had been fortunate to acquire pure Divine Artifacts made by Star Spirits while he was still fascinated by them. Even if they fell into evil hands, their new owners could not use them.
To Star Spirits, those things were little toys made on a whim. They did not care if they lost them.
By the time Hill left his world to travel, he understood that Divine Artifacts made by gods and powerful mages alike came with entanglements of their own. By then, he no longer cared for them.
No matter how powerful a Divine Artifact was, it was worth no more than a second glance to him... The antics the Undead came up with were more entertaining.
Now, Hill was far more interested in materials.
At last, he understood what drove Falan to keep going.
It was not that some materials were so expensive even Hill could not afford them.
They were simply rare.
