*Terrel would come to watch the Bandits leave their tents. It seemed like there were a lot more than originally thought and they were making progress to them fast. With the arrows being fired at them, it seemed Terrel was going to have to focus on them while Artoria managed the rest.*"Focus on the ones further out."*He'd say to her.*"I'll get the ones up close."*The Elf would launch out a volley of arrows, at two of the bandits (F and O) before unsheathing his sword and darting towards the closest one (A) as he would swing the blade at him. He'd have to hope that Artoria would take care of the rest. With how many there were, they could be easily overwhelmed.*

*This many was child's play for the fox. She'd dealt with much more in far graver situations; it was an easy win if she kept her distance.*

*Wanting to end the encounter before she got hit, Artoria once again focused her magic with intent to destroy. With one hand she cast another instance of fireball - aimed directly to hit Bandits A, O, F, and H - and with the other cast flaming barrage at E. G, and H.*
``` Artoria casts Fireball and Fire Barrage. Simulcast invoked. She focuses her magic to destroy.

*The arrows Terrel fired at the two bandits would completely miss and fly past them. How ever, his sword would cut right trough the bandit and he would fall to the ground now being a corpse*

*The fireball Artoria fired seemed to have less fire power then what it should but still enough to burn the still. The fire barrage seemed way of target however and didn't hit a single thing*

```diff
! Bandits F & O avoid the arrows
! Bandit A drops dead

*Terrel would dodge around the Bandit's attacks, seeeing more charging in their direction as he would ready his sword upon finishing off the closest Bandit. Arrows and fireballs alike seemed to whizz past him as he'd face the rest of their opponents, trying to keep them at bay from the mage.*

*Her fireball killed only one of the bandits approaching her and Terrel. She had to take care of those first before anything else. As they advanced, Artoria slung a firebolt at bandit F.*

*With the Bandits soon surrounding him, Terrel wouldn't hesitate to attack them. One swing would be directed to his right (I) before he'd suddenly pivot around to attack the one who had moved to surrounding him from behind (O), soon attacking the two of them once more.*

*A group of bandits had surrounded Terrel, but Artoria didn't have time to assist him because of another group that was slowly advancing towards her. She didn't fret; casting another fireball towards the group heading towards her, she used her spare hand to cast Blade of Dancing Flame on Terrel. She winced in pain as she felt the effects of magical strain take its toll, but shrugged it off. What's important is that she survived.*

*With Terrels swift sweep, both her targets would soon drop dead. The rest around him attack with all their might and two manage to get hit on. The archer now more composed seemed to land a few hit as well*

*Artoria's fireballs just seem to not be as effective as the first time and only deal half damage again, But they keep pressing on. However only one had the breath to make an attempt of an attack but fail*

*Artoria dodged the bandit attacking her with relative ease, scowling at the fact that they survived another one of her fireballs. In reaction, she casts flaming barrage; One aimed towards bandit J, and the others aimed at K and M.*

*With his blade suddenly warming to the buff he was given, Terrel would take the opportunity to attack at the next to bandits. Swinging one with the heated sword (Shield Guy) before shifting to attack the other (E).*

*With the bandits around her fallen, Artoria turned her attention towards the archers in the back. She was wary about using another fireball since they had a chance of surviving, so it occurred to her that a different spell was better to use. As to what spell, she didn't really know. However, her arm moved on instinct, raised towards archer bandit B. She felt something stir within her - a familiar magic. Though she didn't know exactly what it was, she called on it nevertheless.*

*A gargantuan lance, ablaze from tip to end in golden fire, summoned itself. It looked like her old spell - splintered sun - but radiated much more strength. She grinned; perhaps not all of her old magic disappeared on her.*

*She threw it towards the archer, letting it sail through the air with an infernal hiss.*

*Terrel seemed to have lost focus or became to arrogant cause even with his weapon ablaze, his swing would miss each target Though it did make the shield bandit hesitate and miss him. However the two other bandits manage to score a few hits on Terrel it would seem*

*Artoria however would hurl her rediscovered ability at an archer he would explode into a bomb of flame surrounded my a red mist from the bandits blood. It was safe to say he was past the point of being dead. The other archer would be frozen in what just happened to his buddy and wouldn't even attempt to attack*

*In the time the other bandit was frozen, Artoria prepared another firebolt to launch him. Without a moment's notice, she let it loose.*
