"Interesting." Angelo's book opened and flipped through its pages on its own as Dante and Ando were coming down the hill as fast as they could."Let's see what we are dealing with." Angelo spoke a few words and an image of inside the forest appeared above the book and the imaged moved around like a camera turning.
There were around 7 bandits in position along the forest line. All of them carried a bow and a melee weapon ranging between axe, spear, and sword.
"There are seven it looks like. Shouldn't be too much of a problem." He muttered a few more words and sent a bolt of ice that would chill the area it lands to try and flush them out. At this point Dante and Ando were by Angelo.
The barrage of arrows returned at them though only by multiples of fours instead of sevens. Ava drew her arrow and fired a [Power Arrow] at one of the trees, piercing right through it and cracking a hole in the center. Olivia stood in front to act as Ava's guard. Six bandits left.
Dante raised up his shield and charged towards the woods, yelling. Angelo was casting waves of ice bolts at the enemy. "You know, you don't have to raise a finger, right?"
"I afraid I will get rusty" Ava replied.
One of the ice bolts slammed onto one bandit, killing/knocking him out of the fight. One of the bandits threw his hand axe away from him which circled around toward Dante's back. Another bandit fired multi-shot arrows at the convoy.

With his vision, as the bandit drew his bow back, Angelo spoke a few words and a blue light radiated out from him and stopped the arrows mid shot before they dropped to the ground. Angelo spoke a few more words to send a shockwave through the earth, cracking and displacing the ground as it moved forwards.
Dante was able to mitigate the damage from the axe by attempting to side step it, leaving a nasty cut on his arm. Ando casted a spell to heal Dante from a distance.

The ground shook and cracked along the front side of the forest. The trees they were hiding behind fell. One fell on top of the bandit. An arrow was fired from Ava, striking into one of the bandit's heart. Three bandits left.
Dante was close now and he rushed down one of the bandits with his sword that glowed red with a fire enchantment.
The confused and dazed bandit was cut down by Dante right across the chest, a fatal attack that killed the bandit in few seconds. Ava fired another arrow at one of the bandits, striking through one of their heads. One bandit left. The last bandit decided to flee for his life.
"Well that was rather simple." He said as he closed his book. He had his hood on the entire time, he adjusted it a bit. Dante marched back towards camp.
"That was anti-climatic" Ava said as she put away her equipment while Olivia placed back the shield. The leader merchant was at ease, "Thank you for your help."
"That's our job." Angelo grinned widely. He always seemed to turn to a child-like demeanor despite his age. "So what did you think of the magic demo? You said you wanted to see it. I can cast nearly any spell if I take the time to design it."
"Any spells? Even ones with that are special to the user?" Ava asked as she sat down at the campfire again as things slowly turned back to normal.
"It may not be perfect if its special to them, but it could do similar effects. But mind you, even though I can create any spell, that doesn't mean I yet have the energy to do so." He held up his finger as he sat down. "But if the spell requires a medium, such as a spell that powers up an arrow shot, I cannot do it because I have no way to use it. It can also lead to unique enchantments. Take my robes for example. They will always be clean, and with change in size to always fit me."
"Ah" Ava nodded, "I see. That's very crafty then."

Christopher was on his daily walk around the town to check for the barrier and other defense mechanism. He was dressed rather priest like and was holding a book. His eyes were closed. He turned toward a disrupt in magic when the knight teleported in.
James stands noticing he isn't at the castle and he draws wolnirs holy sword and walks forward taking a look around.
