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.

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

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