This question is a bit difficult to answer, because the world's shortest novel can be defined differently. In some cases, a novel may only have a few sentences or less, while in other cases, a novel may contain a large number of plots and characters. If you were to calculate it in terms of just a few sentences, then perhaps the shortest novel in the world would be The Quick and the Dead by OP D Maruko. It only had 13 words. However, if this standard includes plot and characters, then longer novels may be more valuable. For example, the " Three-Body Problem " series contains a large number of plots and characters, totaling 2.5 million words, but its length is only about 500 hours.
There was a boy named Jack. He was very smart but very proud. One day, he learned a secret in the library. This secret was about everything in the world. He told the secret to his classmates, but they all thought it was too magical to believe. So Jack decided to write a novel to prove the authenticity of this secret. He spent a few days conceiving and then started writing. His novel only had two sentences: One world one man One life one dream (There is only one world and one person. Only one life, one dream.) Jack's novel was published very quickly and was very popular. People believed that the secret was indeed related to everything in the world, and Jack became a legend.

He walked closer and saw that it was a fox. Jack ran away in fear, but when he got home, he decided to fight the monster to see if it was really that scary. He picked up his weapon and fought with the monster. In the end, he defeated it. He found out that the fox was actually his pet. It ran to the river in search of food and accidentally fell into the river. Jack was very touched. He decided to bring the fox back to his home and let it continue to enjoy the delicious food.

There was a boy named Jack. He was very smart but also very selfish. He always liked to think alone and was unwilling to communicate with others. One day, he met a mysterious girl named Lily. Lily was very smart and kind. They soon became friends and began to share their thoughts and feelings. Jack found that Lily liked him very much, but he didn't know what to do. He was afraid that he wasn't good enough and that Lily wouldn't like him. But he still confessed to Lily and told her that he liked her. Lily accepted his confession and they became a couple. It's a short novel, but it's full of emotion and deep thought. It shows that one person can express their feelings to another person even if it means giving up their thoughts and dreams.
The shortest novel in the world was " Baby Shoes, Unworn." However, if you like Japanese culture and light novels, I can also recommend a novel called " Tokyo Onmyoji Monogatari " to you. This is a light novel of the original fantasy genre. It tells the story of a person with supernatural powers controlling spells to secretly protect this seemingly peaceful world. I hope you like my recommendation.
The world's shortest novel could be called Yesterday or Oh My God.
