The Lady Nun Seeks Justice (Eliza Stonor) novel Chapter 600

600.Chapter 600

“Vance lost…”

“I can’t believe Vance lost!”

“How is that even possible? That Holy Lady looked so weak…”

That’s what they wanted to say, but the words caught in their throats.

The unbeatable archer they had always admired, Vance, had been defeated by Eliza.

And to make matters worse, he was the one who had initiated the challenge.

In the end, he lost everything. His pride and the match.

Even Theodore looked like he wanted to sink into the ground from embarrassment.

They had completely underestimated Eliza.

They had assumed her title was earned solely because of her beauty, but she turned out to have genuine skills to back it up. “Eliza’s archery is truly beyond anyone’s expectations,” Theodore finally said.

Despite his embarrassment, he had no choice but to step in and smooth things over.

The match had ended so quickly that no one had time to process what had just happened.

Theodore needed to stabilize the situation somehow.

“Your Grace must be tired after such an impressive display. Please, take a seat and rest for a while,” he said.

Eliza gave a slight nod, her expression calm, before turning to return to her original seat.

“I won’t stand for this!”

Vance’s furious voice erupted from behind her.

Eliza turned around, her expression calm and composed. “What exactly are you unhappy about?”

Vance clenched his teeth. “I demand a rematch! Forget foot archery, let’s do mounted archery!”

He had never lost before.

Today, he had planned to challenge none other than Nolan.

But to his utter humiliation, he had been defeated by Eliza.

Even if Eliza was the Holy Lady, this was an insult he couldn’t swallow!

He had to win. He had to restore his pride.

Eliza chuckled lightly. “Mounted archery? Are you sure about that?”

Nolan raised an eyebrow slightly.

Though he hadn’t seen Eliza’s riding skills firsthand, he recalled how she had kept pace with them during grueling journeys, never falling behind.

That was to say, her mounted archery would undoubtedly be just as impressive.

Thinking of this, Nolan smiled. Tonight, it seemed, he’d get to see another side of her.

But he hadn’t anticipated just how daring Eliza could be.

“I’m absolutely sure,” Vance sneered, his tone dripping with defiance. “What’s wrong? Afraid you’ll lose?”

He desperately threw all caution aside and started taunting Eliza.

“I’m not afraid,” Eliza replied, her tone calm but tinged with boredom. “But doing the same thing over and over is just dull. If you really want to settle this, why don’t we change the rules?”

Vance frowned. “What kind of rules?”

Eliza smiled. “Let’s make it simple. No targets. Just shooting at each other. First one off their horse loses.”

Everyone was stunned in surprise.

“No way!”

The first person to object wasn’t Vance but Theodore.

His expression turned grave as he glanced at Eliza, then shifted his focus to Vance. “Enough, Vance. You’ve already lost. Stop this nonsense now.”

Theodore could see clearly that Eliza wasn’t someone to be trifled with.

If this went on, it wouldn’t just be the Malone family’s reputation on the line. Vance’s life could be at stake.
