It must be understood that after the war a thousand years ago on the lost continent against the fallen god, where various gods, spirits, and divine beasts descended, the world had not witnessed the rise of a god.
Obviously, this had much to do with the restrictions imposed by the gods due to this world's tendency to steer promising figures towards chaos and madness, but even so, someone could ascend.
The closest case was Chrhono, although his case was quite special and doesn't technically count. Still, someone could ascend as a god, just extremely difficult. Even so, Andrew had now ascended by right, so everyone felt it, at least those who were powerful enough to sense Andrew's mighty divinity even from a distance.
