Chapter 170: Racing with Trash Chapter 170: Racing with Trash He exhaled through his nose.

“Fine.” His gaze flickered to Nnenna.

“You may compete, but first, you must ask your brother for permission.” Nnenna froze.

Somto, still seated lazily on his horse, raised a brow at her, waiting.

“You heard Father.

Call me ‘Big Brother,’ and I’ll let you race.” His request seemed normal but only Nnenna, Arthur, Carl and Somto knew that it wasn’t.

They all knew that for some reason Nnenna didn’t like coming close to Somto talk less of calling him big brother.

“Nope, I doubt she will do it,” Carl whispered to Arthur.

Nnenna clenched her fists.

She hated this.

Hated that Somto was making her do this unwillingly and in front of everyone.

But she lifted her chin.

“Big Brother.” A hush fell over the stand where Arthur and Carl was.

Somto chuckled, clearly enjoying himself.

“See?

That wasn’t so hard, was it?” Nnenna exhaled sharply before bowing her head slightly.

“I apologize for taking your moment.” Somto threw his head back and laughed.

A real, amused laugh.

“Moment?

Nnenna, I don’t compete with trash.” Nnenna “…” Carl ^.^ Arthur “showoff” The crowd “…” The air in the arena shifted.

A stunned silence followed his words before an eruption of murmurs and gasps filled the stands.

“Did he just—?” “Did Somto just call Minjun trash?” Minjun’s smirk vanished instantly.

His fingers twitched on the reins, eyes narrowing dangerously.

The crowd’s reaction flipped.

The same people who had been mocking Nnenna seconds ago now whispered among themselves, suddenly unsure.

“Wait… does Somto think Minjun isn’t even worth competing against?” “Then what about Nnenna?

Does that mean—?” Minjun’s expression darkened, his jaw tightening.

He had spent years carefully cultivating his reputation, maneuvering his way into the good graces of the most powerful people in the kingdoms.

And now, in a single moment, Somto had dismissed him like a joke.

Humiliated him.

His lips curled into a tight smile.

“Interesting.

I didn’t realize Lionara’s first prince was so arrogant.” Somto simply gave him a disinterested glance.

“And I didn’t realize Dixan’s first prince was so sensitive.” Minjun “…” Minjun’s eye twitched.

Nnenna, now completely composed, stepped forward, ignoring the tense atmosphere.

She mounted her horse, back straight, expression unreadable.

“I’m ready.” “Then I’ll compare notes with your second sister first and teach her a few things before coming for you Prince Somto.” Minjun answered him with a small smile after recovering from his previous shock.

But Somto just walked away from the track like he didn’t even hear him, which infuriated Minjun more.

The match was about to begin.

Then “GO!” Hooves thundered against the ground.

Both riders launched forward, kicking up a cloud of dust as they raced neck and neck.

At first, it seemed like an even match.

Minjun’s horse moved with smooth precision, its movements barely wasting any energy.

Nnenna’s horse, however, was faster!

The crowd roared in excitement as she pulled slightly ahead, her body moving effortlessly with her horse, as if she were born for this.

Minjun’s fingers tightened around the reins.

This couldn’t be happening.

He wasn’t going to let a princess A princess Defeat him.

Not in front of everyone.

His lips curled into a confident smirk.

It didn’t matter if she was really better than him, in fact, he didn’t care.

But he would still win by all means and that was all that mattered to him.

‘Time for my backup plan.’ He thought with a smile stuck on his face.

In the crowd, a hidden figure moved.

A tiny, near invisible dart was drawn.

Its tip gleamed with a faint sheen of poison.

It would only take one shot.

Minjun didn’t need to look.

He had already won.

The dart flew.

Straight for Nnenna’s horse.

But At the very last second Nnenna moved.

It was almost imperceptible, a flick of her wrist, a slight shift in her horse’s movement The dart missed!

The crowd didn’t notice.

But Minjun did.

His heartbeat spiked.

She knew.

Nnenna didn’t look at him.

She didn’t smirk.

She didn’t say anything.

She simply raced forward.

Like a storm that couldn’t be stopped.

Minjun clenched his teeth.

Fine.

Plan B.

If he couldn’t cheat, he would outmaneuver her.

He nudged his horse to the side, trying to cut her off.

But she adjusted perfectly.

“WHAT?!” A prince from another kingdom gaped.

“How did she predict that?!” “Minjun’s tricks aren’t working?!

Impossible!” Even the queens and kings leaned forward.

Minjun’s father looked furious.

The crowd was now completely invested.

Some were screaming in excitement Others were laughing.

“He’s trying every dirty trick in the book!” “And she’s dodging all of them!!” “She’s making him look stupid!” Even Ebere, who had never praised her sister, was staring in shock at Nnenna’s expertise.

“This is insane,” she muttered.

Minjun refused to accept this.

His mind spun.

One last plan.

He pushed his horse hard to the side, ramming it into Nnenna’s.

A dangerous move.

One that could send her crashing to the ground if she lost control.

The entire grounds gasped.

But then At the very last moment Nnenna shifted.

It was so smooth, so effortless Instead of stumbling Minjun’s horse was the one that faltered.

It tripped slightly, just enough to slow it down.

And just like that She was gone.

Racing ahead at full speed.

Minjun’s heart plummeted.

He kicked his horse harder, trying desperately to catch up But the gap was too wide.

She had won.

The crowd exploded.

The kings, queens, princes, and nobles were on their feet.

Some were cheering.

Others were just staring in stunned silence.

And Minjun?

He sat frozen on his horse.

His hands gripped the reins so tightly his knuckles turned white.

He had cheated.

And he had still lost.

To a princess.

His humiliation was absolute.

For the first time, he had no words.

Then A slow, mocking laugh echoed across the grounds.

It was Somto.

He leaned back in his seat, arms crossed, looking thoroughly entertained.

“All that talk,” Somto said lazily, “just to end up like this?” ———————– Guys, if we move up the rankings, I’ve got stockpiled chapters here with y’all names on it!
