'That boy is the key to our survival.' thought Duchess Amberblaze.

After an hour, everyone could see a massive metallic boat Alkin approaching them. During this time, they no longer encounter any bounty hunters. Even if there is, Angus could perceive they only spying from afar or retreat in the distance.

Their previous encounter gives some deterrence to the surrounding weak bounty hunter. As for the previous bounty hunters, they find these bounty hunters are separate groups with a temporary alliance to assassinate Angus.

Only the rare space elemental users and armored guys survive among the assailants. Though the armored guy is on the brink of death. A single slash from a sword expert like Duchess Amberblaze is not a joke and could slice anyone into two pieces.

As for the weapon artifact user and his group, they end up dead under Duchess Amberblaze's giant greatsword attack.
