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

 

　The fox glances at the gorilla.
The peach-colored gorilla takes one look at the fox and begins to taste the clam soup as if she has lost interest.

 

　”There's no rush, just drink it and get back to work.”

 

　I ordered the fox, who turned to me and looked up at me anxiously, then sipped the miso soup.
I'm impressed, in a way, by the way, she sips the miso soup with such relish.

 

　”Hahh~…
It's delicious.”

 

　The girl sighs in satisfaction as she finishes the miso soup surprisingly quickly and her little red tongue licks her lips.

 

　She probably wasn't aiming for it, but the gesture was strangely glamorous.
I was made aware once again that she was a beautiful fox with the good looks of an outsider, who had been chosen as a target heroine in the original game.

 

　”Are you satisfied with your hunger? Then get yourself back here.
I didn't summon you here to play with you.”

 

　The princess gorilla gives me a glare, somewhat unpleasantly.
She shakes her shoulders and looks annoyed at the point out.
I can't help her out with this.

 

　In fact, Shiro…
considering her background and the harshness of this world, her current position is quite fortunate.

 

　The mere fact that she is a half-Youkai means that she could be attacked at any moment, but a nobleman named Kizuki Aoi has taken her into her service…
it means that the half-Youkai girl is assured of her safety and, moreover, because she serves at her side, her treatment is much better than that of some random scullery worker.
Well, her sudden recruitment is likely to cause jealousy among the people around.
Moreover, considering that she was originally a part of a man-eating monster, even I, one of the few people who know the whole situation….
am stunned by what the gorilla princess did.
In fact, knowing the whole story, I'm not surprised at all.

 

　(As was the case in the original game…
she really is a moody person.)

 

　The reckless demands to the original protagonist, the randomness, the outlandish orders and decisions that she makes in her spare time without thinking of her surroundings…
these are things that made her quite a trouble for me during my playing time.
She always stirs up the situation with her outlandish suggestions and makes the likability of the heroine around the main character fluctuate so much that some of her fans call her orders “likability cyclone” or “flag crash” with a mixture of resentment.
Of course, if all the flags and likability the player has built up are suddenly destroyed in one fell swoop, it's not so surprising.

 

　”…speaking of which, may I ask you something, Princess?”

 

　Suddenly, remembering her characteristics, I open my mouth with a slight feeling of foreboding.
Of course, the laws of the game and this world do not always coincide perfectly.
However, my intuition, or what I should call a sixth sense, based on my past experiences, has been alerting me.
So, I ask her.

 

　”…It's very unusual for you to ask me.
Will it be raining spears…or youkai tomorrow? I'm kidding.
What is it?”

 

　Noticing my discomfort at the not-so-funny joke, the gorilla strokes the head of the white fox who comes back to her side, squinting her eyes with some amusement, and plays with her ears, prompting her to speak.
The half-youkai whose ears are being played with has an itchy expression on her face.

 

　”I am sorry for not being able to respond to your early morning call.
And what kind of a matter was it that you came all the way here yourself?”

 

　The only message that Shiro, the messenger, received was, “Call him and tell him to get ready as soon as possible.” She did not mean to tell me to come here to eat.
In other words, there must be a reason why she had to come to her early in the morning…

 

　”Oh, that.
I was actually thinking of getting ready quickly and taking the ox cart out the back door.
My uncle said I was too neglectful the other day.
If you weren't playing such a 'nasty game,' I could have fooled 'her' into thinking I'd gone in the morning.”

　”? What does that mean…?”

 

　As soon as I said that, I noticed the sound stepping in the distance.
The sound that was gradually approaching was like a sprint down the corridor, and no one in this house could make that cheerful, somewhat joyful sound cross.
In other words, it almost certainly belonged to a guest from the outside.

 

　”…truly, she's a very boisterous and noisy girl…”

 

　I heard the gorilla princess's low, contemptuous, cold voice.
At the same time, I guessed who the owner of these footsteps was and why the gorilla-sama was trying to take me out so early in the morning.
In short, it must have been a hassle.

 

　Someone stops in front of the sliding door of the room we are in.
The not-so-large figure takes a deep breath nervously and opens the sliding door as if deciding to do something.

 

　”Good morning, my cousin (itoko-sama)! I am here on behalf of the Ako family, Murasaki!”

 

　The reddish-purple girl greeted the visitors with a simple, innocent greeting, her eyes shining with anticipation, longing, and joy.
The daughter of the Ako family, a family of exorcists that has existed since ancient times and from which Kizuki Aoi's mother came, she is Aoi's cousin, the youngest of the seven siblings of the Ako main family…
And there she was, the tragic sub-character, Ako Murasaki, who had driven many fans to the bottom of despair due to her miserable treatment in the game…
