My youth story, a crossover anime, turns out, is FGO!

The menacing mandibles on its head opened their fangs and brandished two sharp scythe-like feet. Its body resembled a crowded lump of flesh, making one feel nauseous just by looking at it.

Located on its lower abdomen, it has countless red compound eyes that gaze at all life with evil and greed. On its back are poison sacs with sharp spikes. This strange and terrifying creature could not possibly exist in nature.

A young girl collapsed to the ground, her carefully applied makeup disheveled, her large, dark eyes wet with fear and despair.

It will be eaten.

It will be easily torn apart.

The strange creature before them was such a terrifying thing, the Tsuchigumo, a formidable enemy even in Heian-kyo.

Although not the most famous one, it was still a terror that modern people, with their weak constitutions, could not escape.

With a deafening roar, golden lightning descended from the sky, instantly shattering everything—even the once arrogant earth spider had its sickle legs easily severed.

"I never expected to see such a familiar enemy in this era."

A cheerful and energetic voice came from in front of her. The terrified girl opened her eyes. The man holding a giant axe and sharp blade was tall and imposing, like a deep pool and a towering mountain. Just by standing there, he gave people a sense of reliability.

"You are Kintaro..." The girl's tears fell instantly. No one was unaware of this hero; he was the first story they heard in their childhood.

Sakata Kintoki scratched his head somewhat helplessly; he was really not good at dealing with crying women. "Anyway, please leave now, lady."

"This place is now entrusted to the Genji samurai, Sakata Kintoki!"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the earth spider tried to escape by exerting force with its hind legs, but Sakata Kintoki swiftly struck it with his axe. The earth spider let out a sharp scream, its remaining long legs thrashing wildly, and venom was spitting out from its mouthparts.

Sakata Kintoki casually pulled the girl behind him aside, dodging the attack, and his clear blue eyes sharpened.

"I still can't ignore you, take this—"

The golden lightning that erupted from the axe surface almost formed an electric net. He didn't make any fancy moves; he simply raised the axe and chopped down.

But such a simple action was extracted through countless battles. The earth spider had no chance to resist and was cleaved in two by the giant axe. The stinking flesh inside was charred black by the ravages of lightning.

"Kintaro!"

The girl was about to shout something when she saw a beautiful black-haired girl in a pink yukata walk up to Sakata Kintoki. As she passed by, her crimson eyes were full of warning.

"Boss!" Sakata Kintoki instinctively shielded Shinomiya Kaguya behind him. "You've already..."

“Monsters have appeared over there too.” Kaguya Shinomiya was a very pragmatic person. She had run away earlier to avoid interfering with Kintoki Sakata’s battle, but now that monsters had appeared in other places, the only safe place was near Kintoki Sakata.

"You will protect me, won't you?" Kaguya Shinomiya looked up, her scarlet eyes filled with tenderness.

"...Ah, of course, boss." Sakata Kintoki grinned smugly. "As long as I'm here, I'll never let a single demon harm a hair on your head!"

The tall boy stared intently at the wraiths and earth spiders emerging from the crack, his resentment and gloom filling the area with a gray hue. They were like underwater weeds clinging to drowning people, eager to devour all flesh and blood, plunging the world into despair.

“There are quite a lot.” Sakata Kintoki’s muscles were bulging and veins were standing on end, clearly indicating that he had used all his strength. “Leave them all here.”

"Come on, Ashigara Cyclone!"

The axe blade sliced ​​through the gale, and golden lightning raged across the land. Sakata Kintoki faced multiple opponents single-handedly, showing no fear whatsoever.

"Run! That direction should be safe for now," Kaguya Shinomiya said to the girl beside her who hadn't had time to react yet. "In this situation, he'll prioritize protecting me."

The black-haired girl naturally sensed the subtle boasting in Kaguya Shinomiya's words. Suppressing the bitterness in her heart, she bowed to Kaguya Shinomiya, left with a "thank you," and ran away.

If Hayasaka Ai were here, she would definitely think to herself, "Kaguya-sama's possessiveness and jealousy are really strong... In some ways, that's also part of what makes Kaguya Shinomiya so adorable."

It's not just Sakata Kintoki's place; this time, it's like a monster encyclopedia giveaway, with monsters appearing everywhere in this area.

Cú Chulainn and his servant, who were originally strolling together on the beach, also encountered a wyvern and a snake woman.

The two-legged wyverns, flapping their fleshy wings, soared freely in the air, their sharp claws ready to attack from every direction. Hiratsuka Shizuka sensed the wind, her leg muscles tensed, and she actually dodged the wyverns' dive.

The next second, the dragon's neck was pierced by a thorn-like spear, and blood gushed out, a few drops of which stained Hiratsuka Shizuka's clothes.

However, this determined female teacher did not turn pale with fright. She had also studied boxing, so her mental fortitude was not a problem.

"Not bad, Master!"

Cú Chulainn drew his spear and with a light flick, blood splattered onto the beach in a thin stream.

"However, this quantity is actually quite tricky."

As Cu Chulainn faced a sky full of wyverns and a snake woman who kept using fireballs and other magical attacks whenever she could find an opening, runes flashed around him, forming a defense to protect Hiratsuka Shizuka.

But this is not enough.

"Hey, Master." Cú Chulainn stood in front of Hiratsuka Shizuka, turning his back to her. "Hold me tight, Master."

"Wh-what?" Hiratsuka Shizuka was stunned, and then blood rushed to her cheeks.

“I’ll carry you on my back. I can’t just carry you on my shoulders, can I? Don’t you dislike that position?” Cú Chulainn squatted down. “Get on, I’ll be watching behind me.”

Hiratsuka Shizuka pursed her lips, but knew this wasn't the time to be coy. She wrapped her arms around Cú Chulainn's neck and her legs around his lean waist.

Hiratsuka Shizuka lowered her head, burying her face in his neck. The strong scent of hormones hit her, making her feel a little dizzy for a moment.

"That way I won't have any worries."

Cú Chulainn grinned smugly as he lowered the tip of his spear: "I'll finish you off in one move."

"Pierce through, pierce through—the spear that pierces through death's flight (Gáe Bolg)"

The emerald spear was thrown into the air, splitting into countless arrows that rained down from the sky.
