Surprise

Everyone saw with surprise as the guard brought the bandit to Joshua. The minute he got near him, the leader of the bandits started cursing him out loud.

"I knew it! I knew you had a master, but you hid him! You sneaky bastard!" The leader started shouting.

The head guard smacked him with his foot to shut him up. None of the people understood what he was talking about. 

"What is he saying? What master?" Joshua asked the head guard.

"Well, to be honest, we weren't supposed to win this battle. They had a large number of people and would be able to swarm our guards. But for some reason that didn't happen. We found a lot of bodies across a 50-meter radius of this place. We think that they were killed before they even got to us." He said.
