With Oliver's words, everyone inside the carriage tensed. Despite that, no one panicked. Andrew immediately extended his divinity to see the situation outside the carriage and was surprised to notice that they were surrounded.Although he expected Oslo and Vocgo to attack strongly, he did not expect to be so many enemies. Of those that Andrew could identify, there were more than 50 people and although they had surrounded them, it was not as if they were outside the carriage, but in nearby streets. Since Andrew's perception was still not that good, he had not noticed the 5 hiding experts, but Oliver was different. He is an expert with extensive combat experience, so these hiding experts did not go unnoticed by him. Even so, not even Oliver expected the large number of attackers. This wasn't because Oliver didn't think Oslo and Vocgo could hire so many people, but because they were still within the city and the movement of such a large group would attract attention. What Oliver didn't take into account was that Oslo and Vocgo had enough power to bribe the city guard to not move. It is common knowledge that the capital of the empire is one of the safest cities in the country and although there were many wealthy people, it took more than money to make the guards of the city allow for an attack like this. "Looks like I underestimated these guys," Oliver muttered upon noticing this and Andrew looked at him with furrowed eyebrows as he asked, "What do you mean?", to which Oliver replied, "Such a big move wouldn't go unnoticed by the guard from the city. The fact that they can do this means that these guys have strong connections." With Oliver's words, this time it was Candice who asked, "How many men surround us?", to which Oliver replied in a deep voice, "There are about 50 people and 5 hidden experts." Everyone inside the carriage took a breath of air, amazed at the number. However, Candice immediately understood what Oliver meant. She has greater knowledge of how this city operates since she had been in it for several years, so she immediately became alarmed. She knew that money couldn't buy the city guard leaders to set up this operation, so she exclaimed, "Those guys have strong connections with some important nobles." Although Andrew and Aki didn't really know why Candice said that, they didn't bother to think about it because they knew they were in trouble. Andrew seriously asked, "How do we proceed?". "The young master and the ladies must escape the moment I open the door with Madam Aki's skill. I'll take care of the rest," Oliver replied gravely, and although Andrew was worried he still nodded. Despite having agreed to Oliver's plan, Andrew couldn't help but ask, "Will you be okay?", to which Oliver confidently replied, "Winning the battle will be difficult, but escaping is not a problem." Andrew made eye contact with Oliver, trying to see if he was lying, and seeing that he wasn't, he nodded and turned to look at Aki, "We're counting on you," to which Aki nodded and took Andrew's and Candice's hands. Seeing that everything was ready, Oliver opened the door, and the next second, a dark blanket surrounded Aki, Andrew, and Candice and they were immersed in the shadows. Noticing this, Oliver smiled and got out of the carriage. "That's a big number you bring just to deal with us," Oliver said out loud with a smile on his face. All the enemies were surprised to see that Oliver seemed calm and began to suspect that there was something wrong with the operation. The 5 experts who were hiding immediately scanned the carriage and were surprised to find no sign of life inside it. Oliver noticed the strength of the experts as they probed the carriage and widening his smile, he moved at great speed. Although Oliver knew that 5 experts were hiding, he could not know their locations, but when they probed the carriage they were exposed, so Oliver ran towards them. The enemy experts knew that they were weaker than Oliver individually, but they were confident that they could defeat him if the 5 united, so they did not flee and waited for Oliver to catch up with them. Seconds after Oliver moved, a roar was heard in the distance; the experts had begun their battle. As soon as this noise was heard, the more than 50 mercenaries surrounding the carriage ran towards it intending to capture Andrew, but they were surprised to see the empty carriage. The truth was that the enemy experts had made a mistake. When Oliver got out of the carriage they focused on Oliver and did not notice when Aki and the others escaped. While Aki's ability is perfect for escape and stealth operations, she is not strong enough to evade the experts' perception yet, but since they were distracted by Oliver, they were able to escape. In fact, Oliver could have escaped after Andrew and the others left, but he didn't, as it was all part of the plan. The difficulty they faced when dealing with Oslo and Vocgo was that they were hiding in the noble district and attacking that place brought a lot of problems. The most problematic of all was that they could not remain hidden, which would bring suspicion from the high command of the empire. It was also obvious that Oslo and Vocgo would not participate in the attack, so Oliver established a two-part plan. The first was to pretend that they were being held, that's why he launched the attack. In short, they wanted a raid, since Castor and the others were currently attacking Vocgo's mansion in the noble district. Since in quotes they were attacking them, it would be difficult for others to discover that they were the ones attacking the noble district and thus could elude the empire's authorities. Not to mention that the security at Vocgo's mansion had decreased, as most of his experts were sent to capture Andrew and Candice. They never expected Oliver to make this play. The battle between Oliver and the 5 enemy experts intensified every second, but none of them were making use of all of their power. This was not because they did not want to eliminate their enemies, but rather, although they had managed to get the city guard to turn a blind eye, if they caused a disaster, the city guards would have to move. Because of this, Oliver was at a disadvantage. Although he was able to hold off the 5 experts, being outnumbered and unable to attack with all his strength, he was being suppressed. While the attacks seemed powerful, the reality was that they were not using even 50% of their strength. Because of this, Oliver was accumulating wounds every second and although they were superficial, if the situation continued this way, he would be in serious trouble. The enemy experts were confused about what was happening. It was obvious to them that Andrew and the others had escaped, so they didn't understand why Oliver had stayed behind to fight, since it was clear that he couldn't defeat them, not under these conditions. However, after a few minutes one of these experts realized something and, opening his eyes wide, he shouted, "It's a trap, he's just distracting us, we must go back." The other 4 experts did not understand what their partner meant, but they took the warning seriously and began to leave. Oliver did everything possible to hold them back, as he could not allow the plan to fail, but there was little he could do. The enemy experts split up with 3 of them holding Oliver, while the other two returned to Vocgo's mansion. Unfortunately, when they arrived they realized they were late. There were signs of fighting in the mansion and although the damage was not great, they could see that there was a battle. Quickly, they scanned the mansion and their expressions turned sour soon after, as they could not sense the presence of Oslo and Vocgo. Furthermore, they could see that the experts who had been left behind to defend were dead. These experts were not weaker than them, but they stood up to Castor. Castor had grown stronger by leaps and bounds since he received the guardian seal. Not only did he train intensely with Oliver every day, but he had sex with Vala daily, so his strength had already surpassed normal experts.

It was for this reason that by the time these experts returned, he had already eliminated the defenders and Erick together with Vala captured Oslo and Vocgo. On the other hand, Oliver, upon seeing that two of the 5 experts had managed to leave, did not dawdle and ended the battle. Although Oliver fled, the 3 experts did not chase him, because they knew that now that there were only 3 of them, if they put too much pressure on Oliver, they could suffer, so they decided to follow their companions and returned to the Vocgo mansion.

To their surprise, soon after they returned, Castor's group also returned.
