(CW: Attempted Sexual Assault, Mentions of an assault)

I accompanied Emma to a nearby park by carriage, only to be attacked when the area was no longer crowded.

Since this was a secret trip, both Emma and I were dressed casually like town girls, the carriage was designed to look like a horse-drawn carriage, and there was only one royal guard in disguise (or so it seemed).

A skilled member of the Howard family, dressed as a priest, shouted, "Take care of your life, my dear," and the royal guard, who had been told beforehand that it was a performance, seemed to be surprised and said, "Good work.”

The coachman (our elite) smiled as he jumped down from the carriage and said, "Well then, my lady! I wish you good luck!” With these words of encouragement, he hurried the royal guards away like the wind.

A few of the guards followed the rest, but I was sure that guards hidden throughout the area would be able to capture them and keep the royal guards from finding out that it was a real attack.

When Emma and I showed up, the six or seven or so attackers, dressed like travelers, looked puzzled.

We had planned the attack carefully, but the guards voluntarily stopped the carriage and abandoned their duties. The nobleman\'s daughter came out on her own and didn\'t seem to be frightened. It must have been a different story from the one they had imagined.

After regaining their composure, the men pointed their swords at me with a lowly smile.

"You\'re the Moon Princess, aren\'t you?”

“No, sir.”

“I have nothing against you, but … huh?”
