Considering the hidden motives, Eris did not want Takumi to get involved.
"Why? Will there be any problems if I take action?" Seeing Eris frowning, Takumi asked with some doubt.
Eris hesitated for a moment and then explained: "Actually, there is a secret behind the elimination of the Demon King..."
In truth, she should not have spoken so casually. However, she felt that if she didn't explain things clearly to Takumi now, he might take action hastily, making the situation irreversible. She had to speak up to stabilize him first.
As for telling Takumi this hidden secret, would he leak it? Eris wasn't too worried. Even if Takumi told others, those who were already believers would never believe it. For non-believers, knowing the truth would be useless.
As long as humans cannot defeat the Demon King's army on their own, they have no choice but to place their hopes on the reincarnated heroes sent by the gods. Once saved, they will also naturally believe in the gods.
It is the same old reality. In the face of survival, people can abandon everything else that hinders it. Not to mention just believing in gods—even if they lose their freedom, there are still people willing to choose to live.
Compared to the alternative, there is nothing to lose by believing in a god, so why not? Even if they know they are being manipulated, these people will surely be happy. After all, if they aren't, and a crisis happens again, wouldn't they just be waiting for death at the hands of the Demon King's army?
After hearing what was said, Takumi was a little surprised, but not entirely shocked. He would only be surprised if the gods in heaven were truly a charity with no ulterior motives.
Regarding the issue of identity, Takumi said, "Is that all?" Then he smiled and said, "Look, I'm not from this world. In the eyes of outsiders, there is no difference between a reincarnated person and me."
"So as long as you don't say anything and I don't say anything, who will know what I really am? I can just be a reincarnated person."
"Ah, this..." After hearing what Takumi said, Eris thought about it and felt that he was right! As long as the truth is not revealed, who could know Takumi's true identity?
Moreover, Takumi is indeed not from this planet, or even from this world. His existence cannot be found in any previous records. Isn't this exactly like a reincarnated person?
As long as Takumi claims to be a reincarnated person, outsiders who don't know the truth will not doubt him at all. Even doubts are useless because no one can prove that Takumi is not a reincarnation.
So Takumi can perfectly pretend to be a reincarnated person just by saying so. Even if he claimed otherwise, few people would believe him because he fits the profile so well.
"If someone asks later, I will tell them that you were the one who reincarnated me. Wouldn't this help your publicity plan?" Takumi happily discussed this with Eris.
"Well, indeed you can." Eris had no way to refute this flawless logic and could only nod in agreement.
"So what are you waiting for? Let's go now so that we can help the goddess over there get out of trouble." Seeing that Eris was moved, Takumi couldn't wait to take action.
Eris didn't doubt the purpose behind Takumi's eagerness, thinking he was simply interested. She then asked, "So, what are you going to do?"
"Since you are the manager of this planet, you should know the location of the Demon King, right? Tell me the location, and we'll teleport directly there, go straight to the enemy's lair, find the Demon King, and kill him. It's that simple."
"Are you serious?" Eris couldn't help but feel a bit ashamed when she heard Takumi's concise plan.
Takumi shrugged: "He's just something causing trouble on a single planet. I don't need a complex plan to deal with him. It's an easy thing."
"All right..." Seeing that Takumi was confident, Eris knew he must be certain, so she obediently told Takumi the current location of the Demon King.
Takumi didn't waste any time. After confirming the coordinates, he prepared to teleport there with Eris, but as soon as he unfolded the teleportation circle, he was stopped by Eris.
"Wait."
"What's wrong?"
"You can't just go like this. Even if you destroy the Demon King, no one will believe that you did it."
Takumi scratched his head; it seemed that was indeed the case. "So what do you want to do? Should I take a photo as proof?"
Eris shook her head: "There is no need for such trouble. Just get an adventurer card, and then once you kill the Demon King, there will be a record on the card. That is ironclad proof that cannot be faked."
"That works too." Takumi didn't refuse.
Then, the two came to the Adventurer's Guild and met Luna again.
"Miss Chris and Mr. Takumi, welcome back. I wonder if there is anything I can help you with today." As soon as Luna saw Takumi, she immediately became energetic and received them warmly.
"Please help him get an adventurer card too." Eris didn't waste any time, stating the request and paying the handling fee.
"Certainly, please follow me." When Luna heard that she was going to apply for a card for Takumi, she became even more enthusiastic.
It was the same process as before. He put his hand on the crystal, and the card was made in a short while. Just like Esdeath and the other two girls, Takumi could choose to transfer to any profession.
Takumi chose the Arch-Wizard without much hesitation. There was no other reason; what he needed to improve most right now was his magic power.
He remembered Luna's previous introduction to the Arch-Wizard class. There are many passive skills in that profession that increase magic power, making it worthy of his acquisition. As for the skills of other professions, they were dispensable.
In other words, for Takumi, these skills had more value as a reference than for practical use. If he really wanted those skills, he could use magic to create them himself.
In addition, this was not his own class transfer system, so Takumi didn't take it too seriously. When he applied for the card, he simply followed Eris's advice. After all, he will soon have his own system, so he can get any skills he wants by then.
The most important thing now is speed, so as to destroy the Demon King as soon as possible, complete the task, obtain the exchange authority, and avoid any unforeseen complications.
