Vivienne steadied herself, gently easing Percival's hand away.

Approaching Jasper again, she listened to his strained breathing, her expression growing more serious by the moment.

Taking a deep breath, Vivienne raised the needle in her hand and aimed for Jasper's pressure point.

Bang!

Vivienne was sent flying, her speed so swift that even Percival could not intercept her in time, barely managing to grasp her hand.

"Vivienne!" Percival half-knelt on the ground, cradling the fallen Vivienne in his arms and propping her against his leg.

A gush of dark blood surged from Vivienne's lips, her complexion turning deathly pale.

Yuri hurried over, pressing down on the heel of Vivienne's hand with vigor.

"Vivienne, feeling any better?" Yuri asked with concern.

Vivienne nodded, standing up with the support of Percival's hand, a flash of disbelief in her eyes.

She had failed to administer the needle?

What could possibly be the reason?
