It's utilizing every bit of effort he has in his state, but he jumps, both to ideally not get hit at all and, if he does, to minimize the brunt of the impact. The first part doesn't quite work out, but all things considered, it could be worse. The cart hits his leg, meaning that in the immediate aftermath, he's kind of lying on the ground (but hey, that's not too different from his previous state)—still, he's pretty sure it's not broken or anything, and he's not dead, and Otome's not dead, so success??
... Except he suspects that Otome is not going to be too happy with him, and that possibility is actually kind of terrifying—]
