As a result, she moves slowly, can’t use magic, and even a rabbit can get the best of her. However, as it turns out, she acquires a skill known as “Absolute Defense” as a result of her pumping points into VIT, as well as a “Counter Skill” that works against special moves.
Now, with her ability to nullify all damage, she goes on adventures.
