SHRIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGG!
A golden light erupted, dispersing the cloud of dust and almost blinding everyone at the scene.
"I initially wanted to take you with me peacefully, but it appears I might have to use a bit of force. Don't worry, though; we have elixirs that can bring you back even if you're one breath away from death."
The light dispersed to reveal a golden-haired Amber in a crater, wearing a golden robe and holding a golden staff with a faint golden halo on it. The golden radiance surrounding her and even the crater made it look like an angel had descended. However, that's if you decide to ignore the expression of rage on her face and the pile of gold, silver, cash, and different types of treasures piled up behind her.
Her golden eyes glowed as she looked straight at Damien before smiling. The gold and treasures behind her began to burn, and golden nanobots began to cover her body from her feet upwards, forming a pair of golden boots with thrusters below them, an armored skirt, armless winged armor covering the upper part of her body, and a spear in her hand.
"Nice!" Damian said, smiling.
Looking at her, Damien was impressed. She was able to accurately control the nanobots on her first try. He couldn't help but praise her even if she was an enemy. But the armor wasn't what made him smile; it was what she was holding in her hand.
A spear!
"Glad you like it," Amber replied.
"I see you also like pole weapons," Damien smiled while creating a halberd with his nanobots.
"Oh, it's been a long time since I saw a fellow pole fan," Amber replied, spinning her spear.
"Ah, then I have to apologize in advance. I might have gotten rusty after not fighting for some time now."
"I see. Let's bring you up to speed then."
BOOOM!
They both clashed.
"Shouldn't we help him?" the assassin girl asked.
"Nah, just let him have his fun. It's been a long time since he fought a fellow user of pole arms," Maria disagreed.
"And besides, it's rare to see big brother smiling like that," Amelia added.
BANG! BANG!! BANG!!!
Amber protected herself against Damien's aggressive usage of the halberd, using her wings as a shield.
"Are you just going to hide in there like a turtle?" Damien shouted before transforming the spiked end of his halberd into a jet thruster and slamming the axe part down on the wings, breaking them into metallic shards. The halberd continued its trajectory, heading towards her chest when she suddenly smiled.
Damien got a bad feeling upon seeing that smile and forcefully stopped the halberd's movement. It made him feel like his arms were going to fall off. He immediately jumped back, his eyes narrowed to slits as he observed the metal shards moving away from his previous location and returning to Amber to reform her wings.
This kind of control was absolutely impossible for a beginner like her. From what Damien understood of her ability, it had something to do with the gold and treasures behind her and probably allowed her to emulate what she could see.
For someone who had just begun using nanobots without the assistance of AI, having this kind of precise control over them was highly unlikely.
Unless...
"The code D's."
"Those b*stards," Damien commented on how old the cartoon.
Damien gritted his teeth in anger and decided to investigate after finishing up here.
Ratatatata!
The mounted shoulder guns began firing at Amber while Damien pressured her with his increasingly aggressive halberd attacks.

' Interesting ' Lisa thought
' Is this bitch also beginning to fawn over him' Lewis thought looking at Lisa
" Hmm, why are you looking at me that way" Lisa asked still looking at Damien's battle.
'Hmm? How did she know?'
" You don't need to know, just prepare to attack, this battle is about to end" Lisa said smiling.

Multiple vines erupted from the ground, lashing out at Amber while Damien kept her busy. All the gold and silver behind Amber began to lose their color and became nothing more than pieces of stone before shattering and turning into dust, which was blown away by the wind.
"B*tch," Amber shouted and lunged at Amelia, only to be intercepted by a sneak attack from the assassin girl.
"F*ck it all. If I'm going to lose half of my wealth to a kid, then I should lose it all."
A giant golden magic circle appeared in the sky.
