Nicholas The Renegade

Nicholas The Renegade is a Christmas event boss that appears on Christmas Eve under a certain fir tree. He has four health bars and wields a giant battle axe. He was also the first event boss who did not appear during the beta test so information about him was limited. He appeared on Christmas Eve of 2023 on the 35th Floor in the Forest of Disorietation. Rumors has that if it was defeated it would drop an extremely rare item that would be able to revive a player as such it was sought out by many. After the death of Sachi and the other members of the Black Cats of the Full Moon were killed, Kirito went on to search for and fight it to obtain the item knowing fully that it would not really revive a person whose been dead for quite some time in the real world but hoped it might help him clarify at least the last words said to him right before she died. After finding and defeating it, it dropped the item, Divine Stone of Returning Soul. Kirito saddened by the fact it can only be used to revive a player if he or she dies within ten seconds, he gave it Klein and his guild who earlier followed him and held off the Guild Divine Dragon Alliance who were also searching for the item in order for them to use it the next time they see a player die in front of them and then left.
