Chapter 303: It’s Too Late for Quiet Chapter 303: It’s Too Late for Quiet All around them, people who had cheered seconds ago were now stepping back, looking at Nnenna with new, nervous respect.

Some bowed slightly.

Others began whispering.

“Could it really be her?” “I saw her in the papers once…” “I thought she never left Lionara?” Back behind her, Abuchi remained calm, though his eyes glimmered with growing pride.

He hadn’t doubted her for a second.

But now, even he was impressed, she had fought without her hands.

Karen and John, meanwhile, were frozen in a weird mix of awe and regret.

John whispered, “We might’ve been… underestimating her.” Karen gulped.

“By a whole continent.” Ekene, though still tense, couldn’t look away.

“So this… is who she is?” The leader finally stepped forward again, now visibly paler.

“I… I didn’t know.

I didn’t mean to offend…” He gestured weakly, trying to recover his dignity.

“If I had known your identity, we would have never” Nnenna raised an eyebrow.

“Why does my name matter now, when you were ready to capture us five minutes ago?” He opened his mouth but no words came out.

“You said the winner takes all, right?” Her voice was firm, but still calm.

“We won.” Then she stepped back beside Abuchi, who gave her a small nod of respect, something rare and real from him.

The leader hesitated… then did the only thing left to do.

He ordered his men to back off.

The mood among the crew was light, even relieved.

Nnenna walked beside Abuchi quietly, brushing off the attention they were still getting from the crowd.

Phones were still up, people still whispering, but for now, the danger seemed to have passed.

Karen nudged Ekene.

“Still think she needs protection?” Ekene, still brooding, gave a reluctant no.

“No…

Others need protection from her!” They all chuckled, even Nnenna gave a small smile.
