126 Playing a Little (1/2)
”It's a trap?” Randy let out a surprised voice.
Randy recalled his trip to here. He and Zhen Yi found only a few Duskwings on the way. Even on the mountain, there were not much of Duskwings compared yesterday. When they battled the Duskwings on the mountain, the Duskwings retreated after a few minutes, led him and Zhen Yi to the cave.
Randy concluded this was a trap set up by the Duskwings on the throne. He surprised and didn't expect for a monster set a trap. He recalled yesterday event when the Duskwings retreated after it realized it did not a match of him. It turned these monsters had high intelligence compared the monster he hunted.
Randy narrowed his eyes, looked at the bigger Duskwings on the throne and used his Detection skill.

'The Greater Duskwings?'
”What a weird name,” Randy muttered in a low voice.
Zhen Yi heard Randy's mutter. She puzzled what Randy meant was as she was so nervous, surrounded by countless Duskwings. But soon, she understood what Randy meant as she also checked the Duskwings who sat in the throne with her Detection skill.
But she also surprised by her husband's reaction. He didn't afraid or nervous even the Duskwings surrounded them. She could see from his eyes, he was calm and collected.
Zhen Yi even could see from Randy's eyes, he was excited instead of afraid or nervous. Even from his voice early when he was surprised and let out words ”It's a trap,” there was no nervousness, fear or terror. It only contained a surprise, yes he was merely surprised despite surrounded by countless Duskwings.
But, even though Randy was calm and collected, it didn't ease her nervousness as this was the first time she faced thousands of monsters. Moreover, the monster had a hideous face which she hated.
Without she realized, she gripped Randy's hand tightly with more strength as they were holding hand each other when they entered here.
Randy didn't notice the nervousness his wife experienced until she gripped his hand tightly. He was currently scanned the Duskwings. Even though he was confident that he could protect Zhen Yi with ease, but he still thought the easier method to fight the Duskwings while protecting his wife.
Randy turned his head, looked at his wife. Even though his sight blocked by the helmet, he could know what she felt from her eyes. His wife indeed nervous.
Randy smiled and stroked her hand, reassured her, ”Don't worry, there will nothing happen to you. We will only harvest tons of EXP from these monsters, there will be nothing happen to you,”
Zhen Yi's nervousness eased a little as she heard her husband's words.
The Greater Duskwings watched the two humans which surrounded by his underlings. It sat in the throne lazily, he slanted to the left and its one hand supported its chin while it looked at Randy and Zhen Yi.
Somehow, it felt uncomfortable watched the two humans. This was not the first time it set a trap for a human. Every time it set a trap, the human trapped would panic and restless. But these two humans was calm, particularly for the human wore a black armor. Somehow it felt dread to the human wearing a black armor.
But it tossed back its dread as it looked at his underlings. It didn't believe with over a thousand of underlings the two would survive.
”Hey hooman, is there any last words you wanted to say before die?” The Greater Duskwings spoke a human language which surprised Randy and Zhen Yi.
Usually, when it spoke human language, the human would be surprised which accompanied by terror later as it was rare for a monster to speak a human language. The Greater Duskwings often did this kind of things to intimidate its prey and it always succeeded.
But this time it annoyed as it could not see Randy's and Zhen Yi's expression as the helmet covered both faces.
”Hey hooman, can you please open your helmet? It's impolite to face this Great with your face covered by a helmet,” Finally it could not bear to ask Randy and Zhen Yi to take off their helmet.
It badly wanted to see Randy's and Zhen Yi's expression. It really liked the face of terror and fear made by its prey.
At first, Randy and Zhen Yi startled as both hear it spoke human language. But soon they felt odd and made a confused expression as The Greater Duskwings asked them to open their helmet.
”Why?” Randy could not bear to ask. He curious why The Greater Duskwings asked them to open the helmet.
”This Great wanted to see your ex…” Here, The Greater Duskwings paused. It afraid the two hooman would not take off the helmet if it said wanted to see the fear and terror expression on their face.
It paused a moment to find a good excuse, so the two hooman would take off their helmet. Why didn't it ask its underlings to force open the two human helmets? Because if it asked, the result would only battle to the death and it would not be able to see the two human's expression.
”This Great want to see your face before this Great kill you. It's a form of respect from this Great before killing you,” The Greater Duskwings bullshitting before continued, ”So hooman, now open your helmet!”
