I'm pretty sure I'm misunderstanding this sentence but I don't see how..
>どこかに怪物を退治してくれるような強いお方があらぬものか？
I first read it as something along the lines of
>You seem to be the strong people who will exterminate the monsters for us but... are you someone else?
When I replied yes, the fat guy's response was something along the lines of
>What? You guy are?!
>Looking at you, you don't seem very strong...
>Oh well, you're our last hope.
>なんと　あなたかたか！？
>見たところ　あまり強そうには…いや　今は　ワラにもすがる思い！
I think I might be misunderstanding あらぬもの but I'm not sure. Isn't he asking if they're the wrong/different people?

I think you might be overthinking it...
Isn't tacking て/って on to things just a casual way of speaking?
