    As the battle progressed, everyone started to realize that Chaotic Luck was not as simple as he seemed to be on the surface. People might take him as a regular expert majoring in necromancy with slightly special features due to the uniqueness of his Legion of the Chaotic Sun.

    But after watching the battle for quite a while, they found out that the legion was not the strong point that Chaotic Luck had. His strategic planning, battle formations, and deployment of tactics were not that simple.

    Even if most of the techniques and battle maneuvering of his legion looked rather simple on the surface, especially when most of them were from the most basic tactics from military guidebooks or primary army maneuvers that most of the guilds employed in wars.

    Given that Guild Wars were also big events that players regularly watched, most of these army maneuvering tactics were commonly seen by the public, especially when these Guild-Based Tournaments were also highly anticipated events every year.

    What made Chaotic Luck’s tactics special was the series of formations that he had combined to complement one another.

    His method of maneuvering his legion greatly resembled how those big guilds moved their forces during wars, especially when layered his undead monsters with the standard formation of having skeleton warriors and soldiers at the front, forming the frontline, and skeleton archers and mages to fill up the rear, firing their arrows and spells under the heavy protection of those standing at the forefront.

    But what his current formation resembled was the one that almost everyone used when raiding a powerful Field Boss in the wilderness.

    In this instance, Himura was the said field boss.

    Himura fought well while the Legion of the Chaotic Sun was attempting to trap him. Unfortunately, he was too fast and agile to be locked in a single place. Unlike those field bosses in the wilderness with huge bodies, his small size made him a little too slippery to be caught.

    But regardless of all his advantages, Himura still fell into the traps that Chaotic Luck had prepared for him from time to time.

    The simple-looking formation that Chaotic Luck was using hid multiple layers of traps that could easily be overlooked due to how simple they looked on the surface.

    There was even an instance where Himura almost got himself trapped in a formation after accidentally taking a wrong turn during his escape.

    He was too focused on how simple the formation that his opponent was using, making him believe that the solution on how to deal with them was the same as those textbooks written online by well-known strategists and highly appreciated analysts of the gaming industry.

    Fortunately, he was strong enough to break through the formation and escape in time before he was flooded by the more powerful Chaotic Sun Undead from every direction.

    On the surface, this battle looked to be in a deadlock. But those with sharp eyes could tell that there was something more to it than meeting the eyes in the current state of the battle.

    For their experienced eyes, this match became a battle of attrition.

    Himura would most likely win this battle so long as he kept up with this pace and relied on his superior skills and techniques alongside his great familiarity with the surroundings.

    After all, keeping such a huge army was not simple.

    This time, Miss Bunny did not immediately agree and somewhat refuted his words. "But isn’t that the reason why Himura is constantly moving to different places? He is purposely avoiding those powerful undead monsters to conserve his stamina."

    David smiled mysteriously before answering. "That is right. But have you not noticed it yet? These ’powerful’ undead monsters are moving somewhat strategically, covering some of the escape routes that Himura is supposed to take and forcing him to head in another direction."

    "Eh!?" hearing those words, Miss Bunny could not help but look closely at the movements of those undead monsters.

    She then noticed that these slightly stronger undead monsters were taking quite a huge detour whenever they were enclosing their encirclement, covering a decent area that was supposed to be the most ideal route for Himura when retreating.

    She just noticed it because Chaotic Luck had quite a lot of time to move these undead monsters to the perfect position before advancing at the right time, forcing Himura to head in the other direction.

    "Ah! Isn’t this-..." Miss Bunny could not help but open her mouth and covered her hands over it after realizing something.

    David smiled as he knew that Miss Bunny had found out the true strategy that Chaotic Luck was using. "That is right. It is one of the ’luring’ techniques. It is also regarded as a textbook example of ’pushing’ your target to your desired location."

    "It is commonly used for hunting field bosses in the wilderness. Luring them out of their home and pushing them toward a location that is more favorable for your forces."

    He paused for a moment before pointing out. "The only difference is the ’slow’ approach that Chaotic Luck is taking."

    "Since he is aware that he will be not Himura’s match when it comes to a fast-paced battle, he chooses to lay a ’wall’ on another location ahead of time before slowly enclosing it step by step."

    "This strategy is supposed to be employed during a fast-paced battle since there are a lot of multiple factors and expected variables that need to be considered during the process."

    "It seems like Chaotic Luck has found a way to fix his lack of ability to respond to unexpected changes within the battlefield by ’betting’ on the future. It seems like he is quite lucky that Himura subconsciously moves in the directions that he wanted."

    "I am not just sure whether it is a preemptive move or if it is just a stroke of luck on his side," he added with a mystifying tone before continuing. "Sooner or later, Himura will reach the other reason why he needs to finish this battle."

    "That is the pressure. All the factors that I have just mentioned will accumulate; starting from his reputation, the expectations that he has set for himself, and the constant harassment of his opponent’s trick style – all of these will come together and become an invisible pressure that will push him to end this battle as soon as he can."

    "And this sense of urgency will create a crack in his firm mentality and solid strategy, which will turn into a weakness he had never realized."

    Miss Bunny, who was listening to him while keeping an eye on the battle, finally realized something and shook her head. "Unfortunately, it is already too late since he has already fallen into the trap that he has never seen coming."

    Right after she said those words, a change occurred on the battlefield. Himura had finally stepped into the area where Chaotic Luck was ’luring’ him.

    Seeing this, David could not help but shake his head and comment. "Whoever taught this guy how to ’scheme’ is a devil."
