The noise of the fight had disturbed half the night, setting the entirety of Hasteline ablaze and alarming hundreds of thousands of people.
The assassination had clearly been premeditated; besides "God's Painter," Vincent F. Van Gogh, one of the ten Great Bounty Hunters, there were dozens of assassins.
Even a captain from the North Sea fleet had participated in the assassination.
That fellow seemed to have been an undercover agent from Luying all along, utilizing the opportunity to save others as a pretext to launch a ferocious attack on Scatty.
Unfortunately, it ultimately failed.
The mechanical legion of Mafa displayed their astonishing combat abilities. Scatty's royal guard, with one against a hundred, managed to withstand various firepower and explosions, guarding the princess as securely as a steel drum.
Even when the arena was reduced to ruins, they remained unscathed.
