As per the notification, 'TheBoss' was now merely a few hundred meters outside StrongHaven City, causing all righteous faction players to immediately become vigilant.

"He's here! TheBoss is here! All men be ready–" The various guild masters and captains shouted, as the entire city seemed to hold on-to their breath, awaiting his arrival.

Nervous sweat poured down the face of several righteous faction players, while memories of their previous cold slaughter surfaced in the minds of many rankers.

As a result, both kinds of players gripped onto their weapons hard, as they grit their teeth in anticipation of today's fight.

The strongest player was finally here…..

*********

( Near the StrongHaven City wall. Inside StrongHaven City )

The players stationed near the entry walls, all looked nervously towards the entry gates, where alongside the NPC's guarding the city, at least a dozen rankers stood, waiting for 'TheBoss' to show up.

Of course, they did not actually expect him to walk through the front gate, however, they reinforced it nonetheless, to cover all possible points of entry.

What they expected however, was for 'TheBoss' to enter the city in his usual flamboyant fashion, diving from the top of the wall and landing in the middle of the street with a flair, which was why, although there were a few rankers posted near the entrance, a wide majority of players had their eyes fixed on the walls and any sign of 'TheBoss' entering.

"Mages, do you see anything with your heat vision?" Asked a righteous faction guildmaster, as he inquired if TheBoss was trying to slip-into the city undetected.

With his arrival expected at any moment now, everyone was on their toes, and the guildmasters were no different.

Feeling just as anxious as everyone else, they kept checking on the mages and what they saw, as currently only the mage class players who had learnt the heat vision spell were the ones capable of spotting 'TheBoss', in his invisible form.

"No guildmaster Rayan! I see nothing yet…"

"No signs of TheBoss for me either…"

"Haven't seen him yet…."

"The flour patterns on the floor have not been disturbed either"

"No signs of him here as well sir"

His guild members replied one after another, as everyone tried to keep one another in the loop, to ensure perfect communication.

"Alright, keep being vigilant… he'll be here any moment now" said guildmaster Rayan, as he gripped his spear harder.

The tension in the air was so thick that Rayan could almost feel as if he could physically cut through it with the tip of his spear if he tried, however, he self-deprecatingly laughed at himself for even feeling so nervous.

"He's just one man…Why am I even so scared?" Rayan murmured to himself, as just for a second, he made the mistake of looking away from the wall and looking towards the spear in his hands instead.

*SHUA*

*SPLAT*

Precisely at the second that he looked away, a dagger came flying down from the sky and pierced his head in a brutal attack that saw pieces of his brain splatter everywhere.

The high speed of the dagger coupled with the acceleration due to gravity from the height that it was released, gave Rayan absolutely no chance for survival as he died an instant pitiful death.

*Thud*

Crashing onto the surface below, his lifeless body hit the terrace floor with a loud *thud* noise, as all the players around him felt a jolt of fear running through their bodies.

*SPLAT*

*SPLAT*

*SPLAT*

A series of daggers came down from the sky, taking out one opponent with every shot, as the defending righteous faction players were left powerless.

"INCOMING…." Some of them shouted, as many began to prepare for an aerial assault, with those having shields raising their shields, while others casting spells or finding small shades to cover.

So far, they could still not see 'TheBoss' in person, and although the daggers continued to rain for a full minute, there was no visual confirmation of 'TheBoss' yet.

"Where is he? Where is that coward?"

"What even is the trajectory of these attacks? I can't look past the top of the wall, but these daggers don't seem to be coming from the top.

Someone is throwing them in a parabolic curve from the other side ...."

"Do we see him? Has anyone seen 'TheBoss' yet? What exact sector is he in?"

The players near the wall asked one another, however, although everyone was curious on what exactly was going on, nobody had a precise understanding of the situation.

"THERE HE IS! I SEE SOMEONE ON THE WALL….. SOMEONE JUST LEAPT THROUGH…." One of the mages shouted, as he pointed towards a section of the wall from where a black hooded figure seemed to be descending.

Instead of directly jumping down the wall, this particular figure seemed to be sliding down the wall while raising a sandstorm, as it clearly seemed to be in no particular rush of entering the city.

"He's here! We have eyes on 'TheBoss', he's near the Davidoff bakery. Everyone come here!"

"I SEE HIM TOO—"

"GUYS EVERYONE ASSEMBLE NEAR THE WISCONSIN BREWERY, I HAVE EYES ON THE BOSS"

"What? I also have eyes on 'TheBoss', he's clearly near the Darrell brothers alchemy shop"

"I HAVE EYES ON THE BOSS…. HE'S AT THE WESTERN ENTRANCE"

One after another multiple players claimed to have eyes on the boss as the entire city was thrown into disarray as to where Leo really was?

Using the [ Mirror World ] skill, Leo had created 130 clones of himself, all of whom jumped down the wall from different sections, as he threw the entire city into a complete disarray on where he really was?

When looked from afar, it seemed like everywhere one looked they saw a black hooded man sliding down the walls, causing the righteous alliance to immediately panic.

They were prepared for every outcome… yet they seemed to be outmaneuvered and outsmarted by 'TheBoss' once again.
