Chapter 2

Parsed with an automated reader. The content accuracy is not guranteed.

What appeared in front of me with a roaring sound was a beast, the mixture of the shell of a beetle, the legs of a spider, and the arms of a mantis.

Insect monster.

It looked like that in Shinya’s eyes. He could only see that.

The rounded form, which is about the size of a single-family house, is divided into a hairy part and a glowing black shell, and with that many legs they are called arthropods, which are insects.

The mantis’s arms are rubbing against each other in front of his face, and a dull sratching sound is heard. Even the sickle part of the arms is bigger than Shinya.

The size is so unrealistic, and its form, which seems to be improperly attached by a child, instills a physiological disgust in Shinya.

Intimidatingly, the monster of the insect turns to Shinya while clacking its jaw.

Speaking of the insect its eyes look like a large number of hexagons glued together, are not clear where they are looking, but Shinya felt like they were staring at him.

No matter how you think about it, this was terrifying. The insect arms make him feel they are strong enough to tear Shinya’s body apart.

Shinya screams and turns around, unconsciously trying to escape.

His legs stop.

The girl who was facing him.

His legs tremble. She will be stronger than him, why does she need saving, especially by him?

Because if he hit a building like her, he would just die, he couldn’t move many meters in a single jump like her, he didn’t have anything like a weapon like her.

Shinya’s hands also tremble. The girl he’d just met.

Isn’t it more important to protect yourself from the monster like insects. Yes, he should run away.

Suppress that idea.

No matter how you look at it, it’s a girl. His pride, you know?

“Ahhh!”

Shinya suppresses the idea of abandoning the girl and grabs the rubble at hand.

“Let’s do this!”

He throws the rubble he grabbed at the monster and screams.

It sounds good to inspire yourself, but all Shinya can do is throw a stone at an insect monster while screaming.

“Hurry!”

He raises his voice to the girl who may not be able to speak Japanese, and gesturing to encourage the girl to escape.

The girl looks surprised, stretches her arms to Shinya, and takes a step forward.

When Shinya puts it in sight, he shakes his head and in a serious manner of voice says.

“No, don’t come over here!

There was a crunching noise.

Shinya got blown away, directly into the wall

“Geho…ha …”

,Shinya noticed that he had been beaten by an insect monster.

“Huh… Huh…”

Pain Shinya had never experienced in his life.

He breathes desperately, but he can only breathe in quick-and-short gasps probably because of an abnormality in his lungs.

Beyond the pain, it’s hot. It tastes like iron in his mouth.

He’s stunned. Still, Shinya’s eyes follow the girl.

Run away, run away.

Please don’t make his probable sacrifice in vain, Shinya prays.

However, contrary to Shinya’s wish, the girl runs toward him.

Perhaps in response to that movement, the monster of the insect turned to the girl, moved its legs without hesitation, and blocked the path between Shinya and the girl.

Shinya endures the pain and opens his mouth to the girl.

“Please, run.. a … way…”

Now, a sound reached Shinya’s ears

The sound of something piercing a hard surface and tearing. The changes that accompanied the sound surprised Shinya.

A black stick sticks out from the back of the insect monster. The black stick was very similar to the one the girl had earlier.

The monster collapses. It rolls sideways, then turning over a couple of time, and folds it legs. It creates a green puddle on the ground.

There is a sour odor in the area, in the air, which is probably the body fluid of the insect monster.

“… What?”

Shinya opens his eyes wide. The black stick in the girl’s hand is gone. Apparently, the girl pierced the insect monster with the black stick she was pointing at Shinya earlier.

When Shinya got distracted, the girl came to the immediate vicinity of Shinya before he knew it.

The girl is weeping. She is kneeling and putting her hand on Shinya’s cheek.

“––––––––. ––––––––––––––”

She’s saying something again.

“Sorry, what.. what are you saying.. I don’t know.”

Shinya felt that his consciousness was far away Is he fainting or will he simply die?

He just saw his corpse and he also dies.

Such an incomprehensible, dreamlike, inconsistent world.

Shinya is satisfied that the girl seems to be safe for the time being, and is about to close his eyes.

Shinya couldn’t do anything. The girl didn’t even have to run away. Then, he was beaten by an insect because he was weak. The world is unfair.

However, Shinya did not regret the action.

At that moment, he was able to take action that he would not regret. Even if he was complacent, he was able to live properly.

That was enough for Shinya.

And the last thing I see is the crying face of a beautiful girl, which looks like a movie …

Don! Don! Don!

Shinya’s scene of such a small and satisfying death is once again drowned out by the roar.

The girl looks back. Beyond that line of sight is an insect monster.

It’s a little bigger than the previous one. This time it looks like a pill bug, but its size was about the size of Shinya’s apartment. That’s at least a rhino sized.

Two pairs of long legs, which are not found on the original pill bug, swell and wriggle toward us.

Look up at the face of the girl who stood up. There, he saw a different “hurry” than before.

The girl once again had two black sticks in her hands, taken out of nowhere.

“––––––––. ––––!”

When he attempts to communicate to her something, the girl runs to a monster. However, Shinya does not know what she wants to convey.

“STOP …!”

He desperately try to reach out, but his body doesn’t listen anymore.

Shinya was rather crouching on the rubble and breathing and heaving.

In contrast to Shinya, the girl dances lightly so as not to feel gravity, and throws a black stick at the monster of an insect in the manner of a spear. From the side where she threw it a black stick appears again in the hands of the girl.

Every time the girl is attacked, the insect monster recedes, but apparently it’s not enough to penetrate the shell of that big pill bug monster.

However, the girl does not run away. While flying around Shinya, she throws a stick and pushes back the insect monster, even though she can’t beat him.

Insect monsters appear one after another and surround them. Some monsters are killed by the girl’s spear, but the biggest insect monster is now decisive in the girl’s attack.

Before he knew it, the girl and Shinya were surrounded by insect monsters.

Shinya wasn’t able to move, but he kept his cool to some extent

That’s because he knew that she was protecting herself from the way the girl fights, she was clearly losing.

The loss of being beaten made hIM bear more of the burden than HE could take.

“Run away, run away …”

He tries his best to talk to the girl.

The girl just keeps fighting.

Insect monsters appearing one after another, however, the particularly loud roaring sound heralded the arrival of a fourth, large pill bug that the girl could not handle.

The circle in which the girl fights is getting smaller and smaller. Gradually, a horde of insect monsters is approaching.

A small insect … a basketball-sized canabun flies right next to Shinya, sewing through the gap between the girl’s attacks.

Khan! Shinya’s body is blown away with a high-pitched sound.

“Wow!”

Shinya screamed unreliably and flew in the air.

The girl who heard the voice rushed to Shinya. However, a number of insects camp between the girl and Shinya.

The girl’s line of defense is broken.

Shinya’s body flies in the air and is slammed on the ground. He struggles desperately to wake up his body, which he dosen’t even know if it hurts. Dust flutters and swells many times.

He crawls on all fours trying to recover his lying down body.

As the dust fluttered, he slowly opened his eyes and found “it” in front of me.

Shinya met his eyes.

He sits down, with his own corpse.
