FLAAAASH!
The bright energies of everyone praying to the Hivemind began to spread all around the city, no- the world!
Not only his voice reached the people but also the entire world.
The ritual was meant to summon a vessel for him but now that everything was gone, he desperately decided to go "nude" to the surface and let his soul be bathed in all this energy, this belief!
Belief.
This was the important thing required for someone to become a god.
Outside of systems that granted leveling powers or something, becoming a god was very loosen.
It didn't simply required to level up to something and that was it, not everyone enjoyed such easy things.
But due to also not being bound to a system, he could easily ignore the rules it had, and could even ascend ahead of time if he were to be included in a system to begin with!
