When the heroes were liberated from the divine mark of Fantasia, they all rejoiced since they could finally start training in order to become gods.
Alister had informed them about Fantasia's divine mark long ago so that's why they never attempted to become a god.
But they had to admit, it was quite frustrating during the past thirty years when weak grand-level powerhouses even managed to become gods due to joining the Wright Pantheon yet the hero party was stuck at the grand-level.
The heroes were still confident in defeating a weak god with a weak foundation if they all worked together. But against powerful gods like the Dragon King of Fire, they were powerless.
However, they were still confident that they could escape since their hero authorities were quite useful.
Nonetheless, it was an infuriating feeling that they used to be at the top of the world but some weakling they could easily kill in one shot had already become a god.
