Although the leader of the attackers had decided to come out of hiding with his henchmen, not all of them came out. Some of them remained hidden, as they were armed with bows and arrows, to attack from a distance and by surprise.
About 7 bandits came out of the forest, surrounding Andrew and the others. Oliver seeing the men that appeared, scanned the perimeter and in a low voice that only his companions could hear said, "There are still 4 others hiding. Beware of surprise and ranged attacks."
The other three attended in an understanding of Oliver's words and stood on guard. The bandit leader approached and said, "We don't need to fight over trifles, if you give us your valuable belongings and the women we won't do anything to you."
As the bandit leader's words ended, almost at once Oliver's massive aura and Andrew's overflowing divinity exploded, making the bandits tremble with fear.
