how can I unlock my Iphone 13 without starting the reset process

How to reset it? With the passcode.

The passcode is how your data is encrypted and decrypted.

No passcode means no decryption means no data access.

Without the passcode, you're left to reset the passcode and which resets the device contents.

With a Mac or PC:

• If you forgot your iPhone passcode, use your Mac or PC to reset it - Apple Support

Without:

• If you see a iPhone, iPad, or Apple Vision Pro unavailable message or Security Lockout screen - Apple Support

Then restore your backups:

• Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support

The only way to mark data as being valuable is with backups:

• How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

If this is the iPhone SE from the footer (seemingly 1st gen, given the iOS version), it may well have a hardware problem with the display and related digitization hardware.

You can't. Wait 8 hours and carefully enter the correct passcode.
