The King of Hell's Genius Pampered Wife Chapter 378
Chapter 378 That Sort of Despair
“I really didn’t know that this fox is clearly a witch. Why would it risk it’s life to protect those lowly people? If not, it wouldn’t have been so easily captured. It really is too stupid, ha ha ha……”
The two men simultaneously burst into laughter. But before they finished laughing, they suddenly became quiet.
The two people only felt a slight pain on their neck before a purple vine quietly wound around them. Catching them off guard, it suspended the two people high up in the air.
The two people’s faces showed shock, but they weren’t frightened at all. From head to toe, their spiritual energy was suddenly set free.
The short and stout guard already began shouting. “Who launched a sneak attack? Come out for your daddy!”
But, just as his words were said, both men discovered that something wasn’t right.
They realized that the ten square meters surrounding them was enveloped in a layer of a purple enchanted boundary.
Inside this enchantment, they found out that their spiritual energy was restricted and their voices couldn’t be transmitted out.
And at this moment, all the people inside the prison were occupied with their own matters. Nobody bothered with what was happening at this side of the prison.
The two men’s faces finally had some fear in it and their eyes were filled with confusion. As they violently struggled, they also shouted until their throats were hoarse. “What does partial credit count for, if you have the skill, then come out and fight with I, your daddy!”
As soon as his voice fell, the figure of a woman appeared from the darkness.
The pretty, seemingly moonlit complexion opposed the prison which reeked of blood. But, her dark and icy eyes seemed somewhat crueler than this dark prison.

“You, what sort of person are you?” The thin and tall man raised his voice and yelled, “How did you get in here?!!”
Hexi didn’t pay any mind to the two hollering people, instead, she step by step walked to the corner that the meat ball had been thrown into.
Air grazed against it as blood dripped off the fur-less body, causing it to shudder from pain.
The hands resting by Hexi’s side suddenly clenched and her fingernails dug into the hollow of her palm. Blood dripped from her fingers, but she took no notice of it.
A scene from her previous life appeared in front of her eyes. She was in a heap of garbage, after rummaging through it she finally found her didi’s [1] body. He didn’t have an intact skull or a thin body. There were only entirely broken remains.
That sort of despair, pain, and overwhelming hatred was something Hexi wouldn’t ever forget in her lifetime.
After that, she abandoned all emotion and forgot all her dreams. With all her might, she began to become stronger so that her hopes could no longer have that sort of despair.
After reincarnating, she thought that she was strong enough. That she could protect whoever she wanted to protect.
But in the end, she couldn’t do anything well. She lost Wet Nurse Chen, she lost that warm family.
Now, did she also have to lose Xiao Li?
Hexi slowly lowered her body. She wanted to carry Xiao Li, but her shaking hands didn’t even dare to touch her.
Because she knew that without the protection of fur, her (Xiao Li’s) skin was naked and exposed. This was a kind of suffering and torture. Even being touched by air would cause her to feel so much pain it wouldn’t want to live, let alone being touched by her (Hexi’s) hand or clothes.

And at this moment, the tall and thin man who was suspended midair suddenly came back to his senses and yelled, “You…… You are that young genius doctor? Aren’t you supposed to be in the front yard? Why have you appeared here?!!”
The light in Hexi’s eyes dimmed as dark raging flames dyed her glassy-black eyes. [2]
With a wave of her hand, a spiritual cover shielded Xiao Li, preventing her from experiencing the pain of the air touching her body.

[2] dark raging flames dyed her glassy black eyes – saying that red stained her vision would be equivalent to this

Ætla Verǫld
AV Online was just a flash in the pan—a harsh, experimental land which lost most of its players in mere weeks. Only the dedicated few remained, carving out their destinies in corners of the vast abandoned world. Lily Quinn wasn't one of them. With a career worth millions in the esports world, she didn't have time for a game like Avo—but when an exclusive beta test for the new version showed up on her doorstep, she couldn't say no… as much as she wanted to. Literally hooked into the simulation, Lily reluctantly entered a world beyond anything she'd ever dreamed of. Accompanied by seven other beta testers desperate to save their beloved game, Lily dives into a vibrant, beautiful world, where mystery and adventure waits around every corner. Despite her reservations, Lily finds a joyful escape in Avo, shattering her cold, hollow reality. It was just a game though… until the group discovered they couldn't log out. Trapped in a game with no rules, and surrounded by cutthroat players eager to kill for a quick windfall, Lily and her ragged band have no choice but to fight their way out, or die in a game that has turned all too real. Hi there! I'm setting off on yet another adventure, come join me :3 Unusually for me, there's only one perspective this time, and it's quite a bit more action-oriented than I usually write. Don't worry, though: everything's still as character-driven as always, and I never get tired of writing dialogue. Just to acknowledge it up front: this story is heavily inspired by EVE Online and the many stories generated by that world. However, since this is a fantasy setting, not sci-fi, don't expect any real parallels. Chapter publish rate for this one will be whenever I write them, as with Epilogue. I don't expect to move as fast here though, since it's not for NaNo. The plan is chapters somewhere in the 4k-5k range, and hopefully frequently. The Last Science takes priority as always though. Special thanks to Reaver and Ace Arriande for pushing me to get this going, and to all my fellow writers whom I've stolen from been inspired by. You're all wonderful people and I love you Quick reminder: Patrons get to read ahead of what's published! Also, try my other works: The Last Science — A Tale of Modern Magic Epilogue — A Post-Fantasy Psychodrama What are you still doing on the synopsis? Get to reading!

The Solstice Wars
In the grey-cloaked cityscape of modern London, student William Whiteswift has two secrets: the Fae walk among humanity, and they are just as vulnerable as us. His childhood was filled with them; they spawned nightmares and episodes, dreams and obsessions. The nightmares remain, of course, but the fae are his normal. Now, he heals them, for William is gifted. When he saves a faerie -- a humanoid fae -- from an injury he can’t explain, William is forced to let her stay. Finally, he may have taken on more than he can handle; Ainsel could uproot his life in seconds. Instead, she cracks a Pandora’s box of mysteries: someone just flipped her home on its head. And because of that, she did something unspeakable. And somehow, she doesn’t want to hurt him. The longer she stays, though, the crueler his nightmares grow. Worse, governments hide secrets, too: they know of faeries. To them, all fae are monsters fueled by solstices and equinoxes. As the autumn equinox approaches, the culling agency COURT hurries to track Ainsel down. With teams across the United Kingdom and Ireland -- iron-strong despite the region’s history -- they are nearing success. A world away, their country wounded, the faerie leaders hunger for justice. In the looming shadows of war and of Ainsel’s mistake, can a human and a faerie protect each other against their own kind? Could their plight mend rifts between bitter nations and bitterer people? Or will it, like past attempts at peace, shatter? Quick note! I hope you all enjoy the Irish (Irish Gaelic) words here and there! All are defined or explained within the text. This is my chance to show off speaking it at least somewhat decently. Still learning. ;D -K
