They were waiting and watching like vultures. The sight of blood would have driven them into a frenzy. Unfortunately, there was no blood.
Arthur killed all those 40 people in less than 30 seconds. The fight was easy. No one could withstand one attack from him. Actually, o one could see the attack we'll enough to react to it and resolve it.
He was too fast. He was also too strong. Even if someone blocked his attack with their sword or weapon, he would still crush the person by pressing their weapon onto them with brute force.
He only used his hands. But no one could tell for sure because he was a whirlwind. He was just too fast.
His hands tore his enemies apart. They were as fragile as paper to him. If not for their protection runes, there would be blood and corpses everywhere.
Most of his time was spent chasing the people in the group who wanted to run after witnessing his ferocity. The killing itself was too easy so it didn't take much time.
