Ok, ok I'll do it. It made a little bit of sense, but I get what you mean, sorta.

And the reason why Dandin didn't slay some from the back was if he and Boly started to throw things at them, they would know somebeast is there, and at least one or two of the vermin would go and see who it is, and THEY would get caught, instead of just one of them.

I mean, not ALL vermin are stupid. They may have a bad vocabulary, but not all of them are that dumb.

So, yah.
