Vivian's entourage, familiar with Marigold's prowess, recognized her expertise and hesitated to act rashly. They maintained a heightened state of alert, guarding Vivian from a short distance.

"What did you say!?" Vivian's body stiffened, her pupils constricting as a tremor seized her. "How...how did you know?"
