It's pretty obvious rank-ups are connected to achievements, though. That's pretty much the entire condition behind monster evolution; the individual has to distinguish themselves in some way to qualify. Compared to the job system where, if you already achieved the conditions to receive a particular job, you'll automatically be promoted to the next tier above the job once you reach level 100.

I agree with Caudyr on how the blessings aren't "true" blessings. Like the skills Rou obtains from his Absorption ability, they can be deactivated at will. I think it's more like Rou stole the divine power the gods invested into their blessing.
