Synopsis

The future of mankind rests in Noe's hands. Having faced brutal bullying throughout his life, Noe is sent to a boarding school where his luck takes a sudden turn for the fantastical.



Planet Earth, 2075. Humanity is hanging by a thread after World War Three rendered the globe inhabitable.



With the introduction of angels, demons and realms unknown, will Noe play a hand in saving humanity or let the humans that mistreated him burn beneath his flames? To destroy the World or save it? That is the question.



Excerpt:



Like a demon of destruction, Noe snaps.



His vision blurs and dissipates, scattered like glass beads across cement.



When he comes to, he is no longer watching the scene but is at its epicenter, soaking in a pool of purple blood, maroon cadavers strewn across the ground. Every centimeter of the hall is covered in gore - except for Mr. Henderson, whose eyes, wide-blown in astonishment... and horror, are captivated by Noe's neck.



Looking down at himself, Noe sees thousands of black feathers have sprouted out from his own flesh. They tingle at the root and shudder as he breathes, as if leaves clinging to a tree in winter. Blood coats his every morsel.



Springing his now grey fingertips onto his neck, Noe perceives what feels like the head of a purple hyacinth wrapped around it, its ribbon-like strands interlocking and jetting as if growing from his voice box.



Touching his face, porcelain-smooth, painted by blood, marble skin appears unbreakable.



It was all for first love.

Linguistics is a science of the art of Language. An art you have done a fantastic job of mastering. I have no words to describe how beautifully the author is able to articulate the English language and with such precision. I have not seen this much flair and potential from a writer in such a long time and it is refreshing to see a new style of writing on Webnovel and an author who speaks so passionately about autism – something I have personally never read about. Congratulations and I wish you all the best for your future works!

This novel uncovers a sensitive topic for the people who have autism, and I firmly believe the author knows what he's doing. You are awesome, author, for doing such an elaborate and informative story! Although I have only read the first few chapters of the book, those chapters made me cry ;-;

Hands down 5/5 star rating from me. You just have to read the book to get what I’m talking about it’s so good. I don’t think I’ve read a webnovel that is as meaningful, well-told, and entertaining as this one. It’s almost too perfect Didn’t know there were books like these on here

I love this story so much! I was gripped by the author from the very first chapter. This is a MUST READ for anyone on Webnovel, maybe even anyone in general. Their writing style is extremely complex and mature yet easy on the mind; grilling yet calming if that is even possible - the impossible made possible! The way autism is portrayed and evolves as the story brilliantly develops is absolutely heart-stopping, tear-jerking, and benevolent! Amazing author! BRAVO!

Excellent. Excellent. Excellent. You should feel incredibly proud of yourself. The way this story unfurls gives the reader something to look forward to in every chapter; mystery, chaos, intrigue and a bit of comedy as well. I am obsessed with this novel. Noe is a truly unique character that shines a light on the autistic community; he is gentle and intuitive. I don't really have anything to critique, The novel is a little fast paced but I like that, I think it attributes to the story. My dear author, excellent job.

As of CH 14: Very interesting topic! The characters are all so lively and feel like they all play a role in the story! Grammer issues are very minimal so kudos on that! Only thing would be show more, tell less and more sentence(length) variety. That way the story is more flowy :) Overall, love the idea! Although some people may think that the beginning chapters are very choppy, I actually like them since it represents the MC's mental state where everything is confusing and he doesn't understand! Adds flavor!

The story is well-written and the plot is interesting and offers a rather unique premise. There are some times I found myself a bit confused by jargon or events, but as the story has just started, I'll be looking forward to how the author develops the story, and keeps with the current quality of writing. Great job on this novel, keep it up!

I immedietly hook in by the premise of the story and can't help but wonder what is going to happen next. The wording is excellent and i'm impress by the author ability to make me understand the context without having to explain too much. This novel is very enjoyable and it is refreshing to see such fresh premise. Keep on the good work! this will be in my libary for sure![img=recommend]

Everything here is beautiful. This is a deeper story than most I've found on Webnovel, and I really appreciate the little footnotes the author makes to define things that aren't obvious. There's a quick drop-off into the story that leaves you confused for the first two chapters, but I promise once you get into it, Devil Child is phenomenal. The only reason this review isn't a full 5 stars (it's sitting at 4.6 for me) is because of the somewhat abnormal update schedule.

Your story is going well. The one thing I would complain about is that it was not once but more times when I found myself a little confused while reading. Though I must say you can turn this story into a great one. I'm waiting to see how'll you develop Noe what will he become. I'm waiting to see how'll you will make the darkness disappear. Keep up with your work.[img=recommend]
