The greatest—and only—weakness of the Doormat Balloons was how fragile they were. But the gacha machine just happened to solve that very problem.
Once the balloons were placed inside, they couldn't be attacked.
And with three Doormat Balloons in play, it was like carrying around three dedicated healers.
Rita activated Doormat Balloon Maker, took a deep breath, and exhaled forcefully. A bubble-like balloon floated out, translucent and shimmering. Before the connection was fully severed, she felt an intuitive prompt: choose one skill to link to the balloon.
Her first pick was obvious—Pick Me Up.
A healing skill that instantly restored 80% of HP and continued to regenerate 1% HP per second for the next two minutes.
She selected the skill, and a soft red mist was drawn from her body into the translucent balloon. Once full, the bubble detached and hovered gently beside her, a white string dangling slightly as it floated on the breeze.
