I Was Reincarnated as a Nameless Combatant in a Japanese-style Fantasy Depressive Erotic Game, but the Women Around Me Are All Dangerous, and I Have a Bad Feeling about It

tself.
A giant arm insect with crab-like pincers and clicking mandibles appeared.
Its massive size made it clear that this was their boss.

　”Daraa!!!!”

　Iruka was the first to move.
Ignoring its intimidation, she swungs her axe and severed one of its pincers.

　'…!!!??'

　Despite being surprised by the fearless preemptive strike, the grotesque creature counterattacked.
It swung a pair of elongated hind legs like whips.

　”Move…get down…!!”

　As soon as I said that, Iruka crawled on the floor.
I pressed Shiro's head and pressed my body against the floor as well.

　”Eh!? Gyaaa…”

　The members of the army couldn't react in time.
The whip-like legs, tearing through the air, cut one of the soldiers in half.
The armor was useless as his upper body spun in the air, crashing into the ceiling and scattering guts as he fell to the floor.

　”D*mn it!? Gensuke's been killed!!”

　”You've got some nerve!! Die, you monster!!”

　At the death of their comrade, however, a few soldiers went into a rage and hurled their spears.
Although the spears themselves were of poor quality and didn't cause significant damage, it served as a distraction against the creature.

　And Iruka and I didn't miss the chance.

　”Come on, take this!”

　Iruka stood up and charged forward, delivering a full swing kick to a nearby cricket youkai, sending it flying towards the face of the arm insect.
The cricket youkai collided with the arm insect's face, turning into a splatter of flesh and scattering in all directions, much like a soccer ball hitting the goal.
The arm insect, caught off guard by the unexpected blow, staggered.

　”Okay, one more!!”

　Seizing the opportunity, Iruka rushed into the creature's reach and struck its joint with the axe.
The second segment leg, without its pincers, was severed, and Iruka mercilessly swung the axe at the creature's body with the returning blade.
The fact that the left side, where the pincers had already been cut off, and being too intruded upon, left the creature unable to counterattack.
It hastily jumped sideways, trying to create distance between Iruka and itself.
That's when I closed in from behind.

　'Giish!!'

　One of the randomly grown eyeballs on its head caught my attention.
The two whips were swung at me, but I quickly cut them off one after another with my dagger.

　(So, this one is probably just a medium youkai.)

　It doesn't seem to be a highly skilled one.
In that case, I jumped onto the creature's head without hesitation.
It violently shook its body in an attempt to throw me off…
but it's too late!

　”Hey, can you see this thread?”

　'Kikii!?'

　As soon as I said those words, the arm insect seemed to notice the thin, dangling thread around its neck.
It was the sharp spider thread of Tsuchigumo.

　This was achieved by sending a bird shikigami with a teguruma attached through its beak, circling around the neck of the arm insect with the thread…
and now the shikigami returns.
I picked up the teguruma it carried in its beak.
The arm insect, with its black eyeballs simultaneously fixed on me, seemed to understand what was about to happen.

　With a smirk on my face, I pulled the thread swiftly.
At the same time, the spider thread pulled up from the neck effortlessly severed the head of the arm insect, as if cutting through tofu.

　'…!?!!!??'

　Losing its head, the arm insect convulsed, spewing green bodily fluid from the wound and flailing countless legs.
As it moved, I leaped and calmly distanced myself upon landing on the floor.

　Then, to finish off, I kick the first human-faced earthworm, which has collapsed on the floor, trembling, with a kick to the face and then finish it off with a dagger (tantō).
I looked around.
It seems that we have taken care of most of the people who were lurking around here.

　Suddenly, I glanced at the ground, picking up an item scattered during the battle, belonging to the station.
I checked its contents.
Then, breathing heavily and kneeling, I turned towards the exhausted soldiers and spoke.

　”Well then, it seems like we both need some information exchange.
…Hey, can someone boil some water? It's freezing with this blizzard.
Let's have a chat while warming up.”

　I showcased a box of tea leaves, presumably part of the station's supplies, and made the suggestion.

　…Imagining the discovery of a troublesome situation.
