Ves wasn't entirely proud of the Cross of Rebirth.
The newly-fabricated heirloom along with the Cross Warlord that inhabited it were both failed projects in his eyes.
Though he tried his best to process or make use of the willpower fragment of Saint Hemmington, the darned remnant was too combative.
The impression that Ves got from the proud and hostile fragment was that it would rather die than to be converted into a tool for someone else's use!
Even when Ves attempted to communicate that the fragment would be able to help the Cross Clan become more powerful, it simply stuffed its metaphorical ears and refused any other entreaties.
Ves did not dare to do anything further to it. He was even afraid of shattering it and using it as a key ingredient to make the Cross Warlord because Saint Hemmington's willpower was too strong and exclusionary!
