Spy - Holder may look at one opponent's hand or cards face down in a site. Hero may then withdraw from battle unharmed or continue the battle.
If The attacker does not look at the defender's cards, can spy still withdraw? Question arises because of the wording of "Hero may then withdraw..."

I am pretty Sure you can, although it kinda defeats the purpose of the card....... unless you have warrior's spear, anyways.

It does matter for Retribution + Warrior's Spear.
They are two separate abilities, meant to be read in order as per the normal order of operations with special abilities. That there is a "then" just denotes that it happens afterwards in this case, to my knowledge; not sure that they are actually linked or cost-benefit.
