Obviously Gerard was lying about Deucalian being unbeatable, just like how he lied about getting ambushed. He wanted it to look like the big bad Deucalion was the one responsible for the massacre. He might have thought that the story would be more believable if the alledged mastermind was portrayed as an "unbeatable villain". There's also the possibility that Gerard tried to finish the job later on, but was unable to do so. That's when he learned that Deucalion "wasn't blind all the time".
