And then it happened. Anelope’s small hand reached out to the knight in front of her – to his gr*in, to be exact.

“Gah?!”

The knight, caught off guard by her sudden action, froze, his eyes widening as he looked at her in disbelief.

“Y-Your Highness…?”

The Chosen Knight’s voice wavered slightly with confusion, and the others, though not Chosen, were equally stunned.

“I was thinking…”

“W-What exactly were you thinking…?”

The knight stammered, his discomfort obvious.

Anelope’s hand fumbled busily at the front of the knight’s shirt, her clumsy movements betraying her intoxication. The knight, unable to hide his discomfort, looked visibly distressed.

“I’ve been thinking about why you never go all the way… I thought about it!”

She muttered, struggling to undo the buckle on his trousers. However, her drunken state made her attempts unsuccessful, and each failure only added to her frustration. Pouting, she groaned.

“Why won’t this stupid thing come off…?”

As she continued to wrestle with the knight’s belt, another knight standing nearby noticed a book lying forgotten on the bed: Oh, My Knight! Volume 2. Cautiously, he picked it up, his expression unreadable.

‘What is this…?’

The knight looked at the book Anelope had brought with her earlier.

“Y-you guyyys… I just…”

Anelope’s drunken mumbling served as the chaotic background to the unfolding scene.

The knight hesitantly opened the book, Oh, My Knight!, only to find himself staring at an explicit illustration. It was as if Pandora’s box had been opened. Startled, he immediately dropped the book, his face flushed with shock. Another knight, curious about the commotion, picked it up.

They, too, froze in horror upon seeing the contents.

“You idiot, what are you looking at in front of Her Highness!”.

“Where the hell did you get something like this? Are you insane?”

The knights, trying to keep Anelope oblivious, whispered furiously among themselves. They jabbed the first knight with their elbows, urging him to get rid of it immediately.

“I-it’s not mine…”

“What?”

“This is something Her Highness brought…”

The knight protested, his tone filled with injustice.

“Are you seriously trying to pin this on Her Highness?”

Another knight whispered furiously.

“No, I swear, it’s true!”

“What kind of ungrateful fool are you? There’s no way Her Highness would read something like this.”

Although they wanted to shout and argue loudly, Anelope was right in front of them. Their voices remained hushed as they continued their whispered quarrel.

Hearing the murmurs, Anelope, who had been fumbling with the unfortunate knight’s tunic, turned her attention toward them. In their hands was Oh, My Knight!, opened to an explicit illustration featuring a six-person scene.

“Oh, that’s my Oh, My Knight!“

She exclaimed brightly, her face lighting up with an innocent smile.

Before anyone could stop her, she snatched the book from the knight’s hands with gleeful enthusiasm.

The knights exchanged wide-eyed glances, disbelief etched on their faces as the scandalous novel ended up in Anelope’s hands. The knight who had been accused mumbled in frustration, his tone dripping with indignation.

“I told you, it’s not mine…”

Meanwhile, the drunken Anelope giggled, flipping through the pages. Each turn revealed explicit illustrations of intimate acts between men and women, drawn with painstaking detail. She seemed entirely unbothered, even amused, by the content.

Suddenly, her hand paused on a specific page. She stared at it intently before holding it out to the knights, her expression a mix of determination and tipsy glee.

“I want to do this toooo…”

The knights were struck silent. No one dared to respond.

The page Anelope showed them was shockingly explicit, depicting a scene far too indecent to describe in words. It portrayed noblemen in hastily undone uniforms taking advantage of a noblewoman in a manner utterly devoid of propriety or consent.

Though they were of common birth, they had sworn on their honor as knights to protect the weak and uphold justice. How could they possibly do such a thing with the very master they were bound to protect?

The knights exchanged nervous glances, clearing their throats and trying to gauge Anelope’s mood.

“Why won’t you do it with meee?”

She pouted, her lips sticking out in a childish manner. No one dared to respond to her slurred demand.

A heavy silence filled the room.

Perhaps due to the alcohol, Anelope’s eyelids looked heavy, and she began to blink slowly, her gaze sweeping over the knights. Her small head wobbled slightly, making her look unexpectedly endearing.

“Your Highness, forgive me, but I believe it would be better to discuss this tomorrow.”

Her flushed cheeks and unfocused eyes turned toward the knight who spoke, narrowing into what seemed like a glare. Unfortunately, the attempt at intimidation fell short. Instead, she resembled an adorable golden tabby cat trying to look fierce, her eyes squinting as she stared him down.

The knight let out an involuntary chuckle but quickly masked it, pressing his lips together in an attempt to appear serious.

“Ahem, my apologies,” the knight coughed nervously.

“I’m not leaving.”

“…Pardon?”

“I’m not leaving until it’s done.”

Anelope declared, pulling one of the knights toward the bed.

“You, let’s start with you.”

“M-Me…?”

The knight’s face turned bright red with panic.

Anelope tilted her head, looking at him with a pout.

“Do you dislike me?”

“Dislike? Never! How could I possibly dislike Your Highness?”

The startled knight vehemently denied it, as if the mere idea were unthinkable. How could he possibly dislike her? She, a member of the royal family, treated them with respect, never flaunting her status, and had always shown them unexpected kindness. He had vowed to serve her with unwavering loyalty for life.

To the knights, Anelope was a cherished figure in many ways, though she herself remained oblivious, busy with her own grumbling.

“Then let’s start with you.”

The knight she chose was a man with striking dark navy hair that shimmered subtly under the light. Blinking in confusion, he tried to make sense of the sudden turn of events. By the time he fully grasped what was happening, Anelope had already unfastened the buckle of his pants.

Through the loosened front, a hard p*nis made its presence known. Anelope, as if she’d been waiting for this moment, reached out and wrapped her small hand around his p*nis, leaning in to take the tip into her mouth.

“Y-You can’t do that!”

The knight exclaimed in alarm, stopping her immediately. His panicked reaction startled Anelope, making her flinch.

“W-Why are you yelling at me?”

“Your Highness, where on earth did you learn such a thing? This cannot be allowed. How could someone as radiant and untouchable as the sun itself even consider putting something so lowly in your mouth?”

The knight spoke frantically, hurriedly adjusting his pants. But as he did, tears began to pool in Anelope’s eyes. After a long, tense silence, a single tear finally slid down her cheek.

“Sniff… sob…”

It was utter chaos. The knights glared daggers at the one who had rejected Anelope, as if ready to end him right then and there.

“Are you all right, Your Highness?”

“Please don’t cry, Your Highness.”

“We’ll make sure to punish this insolent fool!”

The knights gently patted Anelope on the back, soothing her with kind and comforting words. Still, she continued to sob and sniffle.

“Sniff… You’re all the same… sniff, sob… all of you are the same!”

As she lashed out, one of the knights, attempting to calm her, spoke in a soft and measured tone.

“Your Highness, I believe I understand what you desire. But you are of royal blood, and we are mere commoners. Such intimacy is simply impossible.”

“But I’m saying it’s fine, so why do you keep saying it’s not?”

Her tears and temper flared repeatedly, cycling between outbursts and sniffles, until finally, she blurted out boldly.

“Let’s all just do it! I’m saying let’s do it together!”

And with that, as if all the energy had been drained from her, she fell asleep. Right there, in an unnamed knight’s bed, sprawled out comfortably as if she hadn’t just turned their lives upside down.
