The Fatal Scythe

«The Fatal Scythe» is the grim-reaper boss of the hidden underground dungeon located beneath the Starting City on the first floor. Its armaments include a large powerful scythe, ability to phase in and out of walls and tremendous speed. It was fought by Asuna and Kirito when they were trying to help Yulier find her guild's leader Thinker, who had been trapped in the area's safe zone. Its battle level is unknown, but Kirito suspected it to be as powerful as the 90th floors bosses, proven when it was able to deplete a large number of both Kirito's and Asuna's health with one swing of its scythe. It was only through the intervention of Yui that The Fatal Scythe was defeated.
