Chapter 171: Disgrace Chapter 171: Disgrace “You couldn’t even win against my youngest sister, what makes you think you qualify to race me?” Somto with a scoff at Minjun’s guts.

Minjun “…” The crowd howled.

Minjun’s face burned.

But before he could say anything, Nnenna turned to him.

And for the first time, she spoke directly to him.

“You gave up too easily,” she said simply.

And then she turned away Leaving him completely and utterly disgraced.

She had noticed Minjun’s tricks when he raced with Prince Ankhbayar, but if she had called him out for cheating, many people wouldn’t listen or care, so she decided to crush him taking advantage of his overconfidence.

Minjun had served himself on a plater of gold when he defeated Prince Ankhbayar falsely.

At that point, everyone assumed he was the best out of all the princes so Nnenna thought, why not use him to prove her skills and disgrace him while she was at it?

If she had raced with only princesses, everyone would assume she was only the best at that level but she wasn’t.

Lady Rose’s teachings wasn’t to make her the fifth best in the land, but the first!

So she confidently raced.

And most importantly she had avenged her friend!

She looked towards the stands where Roxurun royals sat and nodded at Prince Ankhbayar then Lady Rose who was at Lionara’s stand looking so proud of her.

The echoes of the cheering crowd still hung in the air.

But as the excitement settled, so did the weight of what had just happened.

Minjun had lost.

To a princess.

And not just any princess, Lionara’s youngest princess.

Minjun’s fingers twitched at his sides, his nails pressing so deeply into his palms that they nearly drew blood.

He wasn’t looking at the celebrating crowd.

He wasn’t looking at the kings and queens discussing the race.

His entire focus was on her.

She had humiliated him.

No, she had done worse than that.

She had seen through him.

Through his tricks.

Through his tactics.

Through everything he had prided himself on.

And she had defeated him without mercy.
