Noel Thirteen

The Night Has Come, and kermesinus moon ascends in the sky. Hoarse whispers flow at the street corners, and brass steam machines spew out bloody mist. Your brain is singing a hymn, eyes are chanting a melody. Skin cracks, and flesh buds swell. Amidst the Mist, the wall of flesh that has devoured thousands of corpses wails endlessly— "Weep not, our players don't bite, they just want to play with you." Annan, the lone strategist, the top player, the savior of the mist-covered continent, the leader of the Thirteen Saints, the friend of the Twelve True Gods, the king of pioneers, "the Just", the Gatekeeper of the Fourth Calamity, the uncrowned deity, advised kindly.

The fake villain, dressed in fine garments and enjoying luxurious feasts, simply waited to be humiliated, while the real villain was caught by the Big Ice Lump and dragged across the world in flight from the start. Golden finger? Only a fake villain relied on a golden finger to get rich, a true villain dared to confront a bleak life! "If Heaven had not birthed me, Xu Changtian, villains would be as eternal as the never-ending night." "........" "Father, save me!"

In her previous life, Lina Riley harbored an unrequited love for the Fifth Princess, Victoria Ashwood. Lina sacrificed everything for her—securing her place on the throne, protecting her borders, and losing her arm and sight in the process. Yet, her loyalty was repaid with a goblet of poisoned wine and the execution of her entire family. Victoria despised her, accusing Lina of cruelty and of orchestrating her elder sister’s death, deeming her unworthy of love. When the poison took effect, Lina closed her eyes in despair, only to awaken back in the moment they first met. On that fateful day, Lina had stumbled upon Victoria being beaten by palace maids, an encounter that set everything in motion. This time, Lina turned away, choosing a different path, but a faint fragrance of plum blossoms lured her in. One reckless night led to a moment of despair when she awoke to find the coldly beautiful face of her bedmate—Lucille Everard, the Princess Regent. Lucille, while outwardly uninterested in court affairs, was notorious for her swift and decisive actions that had seen emperors replaced with alarming frequency. Compared to Lucille’s power, Lina’s past dealings with Victoria seemed like mere child's play. As Lucille stirred awake, Lina's nerves were frayed. “Given the circumstances, Your Highness, what do you think of me now?” she asked, resigned to her fate. To her surprise, Lucille chuckled softly. “I think you’re wonderful.” Stunned, Lina could only manage a confused “Huh?” From that moment, everything veered off course. Lucille's palace soon bloomed with roses—Lina’s favorite. Amidst the swaying blossoms, the resolute Princess Regent would gently take Lina’s hand, her once-frigid gaze warm and tender. “My dear Lina, you are the finest woman in the world.” In her new life, Lina often dreamed. She dreamt of someone leaving a bouquet of roses at her grave, their robes trailing the light fragrance of plum blossoms. They sipped wine with a wry smile, murmuring, “Silly girl, I avenged you.” Victoria Ashwood was reborn too. She hadn’t expected that killing Lina would provoke her aunt’s ruthless revenge. Determined to avoid a similar fate, she resolved to feign affection for Lina, even if it took a lifetime. At a palace banquet, Victoria was taken aback by Lina’s beauty. Draped in fine silks, Lina was a dazzling sight, so different from the weathered woman Victoria remembered. Drawn to her, Victoria was about to approach when she noticed Lucille at Lina’s side, gently wiping her lips with a soft smile. “Take it slow,” Lucille murmured. Lina paused, then chuckled as she adjusted a strand of Lucille’s hair. Victoria’s heart twisted in fury. When her desperate attempts to win Lina back failed, she demanded, “Why won’t you love me?” Lina sneered. “Show some respect, Fifth Princess. You should address me as Aunt. Besides, your hypocrisy and cold-heartedness make you unworthy of love.” Years ago, a young Lucille Everard encountered a lost girl in the palace gardens. The girl declared that Lucille was beautiful and promised to marry her one day. Thirteen years later, a fateful misunderstanding during a bout of poisoning entwined their paths. What began as teasing quickly turned Lucille from a hunter into prey, helplessly ensnared by the woman she never forgot. Tags: 1.

For the last three years, 17-year-old Rue Joel has been cooped up in his single-bedroom apartment, surviving off of nothing but regular ol' chicken and peas pot pie, but what choice does he have? After all, a fatal, fast-acting airborne disease plagues his very streets, leaving him with no choice but to stay put in his apartment. Of course, no one would want to die, right? Well, after having to eat his least favorite food on the planet, a chicken and peas pot pie, for three years straight, Noel questions if it is really worth continuing to live a life like this, forced to stay confined in this single-bedroom apartment.  And so, after surviving in his apartment five more days, Noel steps outside for the first time in three years.

Noel lives in a world where every time he reaches a certain point in his life, he is reborn, his memories wiped away. With each cycle, he forgets everything, living as if it's his first time in the world. But before the loop erases everything, there is a single minute—just one minute—where Noel remembers everything. For that brief moment, the weight of all his past lives crashes down on him. He recalls the endless cycles, the repetitive nature of his existence, and the weariness of it all. The memories flood his mind, but that fleeting moment only deepens his fatigue, for he has lost count of how many times it’s happened. He’s tired of it. In this world, humanity knows only two forces of power: aura and mana, concepts that have shaped the world for millennia. The world is divided into four continents, each ruled by its own kingdom. Dungeons, filled with forgotten powers, lie scattered across the land, hiding the ancient secrets of the world. Yet, for Noel, none of these things matter. His only wishes he could rest like he never existed in the first place but will fate accept his wish and allow him to rest?. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/610171/fictions. this is my story and I will be posting on royal road so go check it out if you're interested.

Before time and matter, when everything known did not yet exist, there dwelled the Creators—eternal beings born from a paradox: natural forces that created their own existence. Gifted with infinite power, limitless ideas, and an absence of malice, the Creators shaped what we now understand as reality. With an infinite source of matter and creativity, they embarked on their titanic task: the creation of infinite universes. When their infinite matter was exhausted, they made a radical decision: to concentrate everything into a perfect sphere, smaller than a pinhead but with infinite mass. This act of perfection culminated in an explosion that divided existence into thirteen primordial universes, each with its own expansion and laws, governed by gods chosen by the Creators. In their most ambitious work, the Creators forged souls, imperfect entities with the capacity to perfect themselves through an endless cycle of life, death, and purification. Though burdened with emotions, souls possess the potential to achieve perfection by reintegrating into the grand universal cycle. While emotions spill over as imperfect residues, souls unconsciously create new worlds, perpetuating the cosmos's expansion. However, everything is destined for an end: an inevitable collapse where the thirteen universes will converge, destroying all matter. From this end, the void will arise once more—the eternal home of the Creators—where they will continue their endless work, a cycle of creation and destruction that never repeats but also never concludes. "The Legend of the Creators" is a reflection on infinity, perfection, and the constant search for meaning in a boundless universe, where every imperfection and every cycle are part of a grander design that transcends human understanding.

When all nine Stars were opened completely, it would be equivalent to having nine Dantian. (Most unique point to the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art.) This is a Yang (阳) cultivation method, specific to males. Once he managed to completely condense his FengFu Star, he would be able to store an extremely large amount of spiritual energy. Then he could attempt to agglomerate his blood vessels and enter the Blood Condensation stage, thus becoming a true martial artist. As the FengFu Star grew larger, his physical body also changed with it and became stronger. The FengFu Star was just like a spring nourishing his whole body. His current transformation made him greatly different from his old self. Each Star requires ‘nine transformations’ to become perfect.” The other most peculiar aspect of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art was that while ordinary cultivators had to cross only nine Heavenstages for each cultivation realm, Long Chen has to go through thirteen Heavenstages to enter the next realm. Besides, after the ninth Heavenstage, each increase allowed his power to explosively multiply.

They had told me everything—the truth of my bloodline, the dangers lurking in the shadows—and we agreed on one thing: staying hidden was the only way to survive. But the past has a way of catching up. When the unknown world I escaped comes crashing back into my life, everything I thought I knew unravels. Hunted by demons, thrust into a world that feels more foreign with every heartbeat, and tasked with an impossible quest to recover the ancient swords of the First Queen—this isn't just survival anymore.
