Chapter 2: Jupiter and birth

As I float in the abyss stuck with my thoughts, a shiver went through my soul. This shiver was accompanied by a husky laugh from a woman, now many may feel creeped out when they hear it but not me.

I sighed in my mind as the lady came in front of me. With eyes black as the void, skin as pale as snow and hair almost like her eyes, she was a beauty. Her lips were pl---. 

OK nope, not going to become a simp. I knew who this lady with a goth style was. This was Death, no not the real one just a conduit of it. The real lord of death is Yama who is probably feeling sad at my demise but even then, he can't claim me since I am a small Ansh/part of lord shiva.

Let's see what she wants.

"HUBBY, OH HOW CUTE YOU LOOK IN THIS FORM!" She said in an excited and baby like tone as she cradled me. Oh yeah did I mention, even though I am single many girls are always proclaiming me as their husband including her.

"Yeah, yeah I know" I said simply with a bored tone not in the mood to entertain her. I was still quite angry to be honest after my loss.

She pouted in response as she said.

"Looks like someone is grumpy after the fall",

I groaned in response, question my decision to talk to her. 

"Well, no worries, I have a plan to make you strong again and get your old body back" This sentence instantly caught my attention as I listened attentively. She smirked feeling happy that she beat me this round.

"There is a turmoil in the harry potter universe an-" She was cut off by my question.

"What the hell is this universe?" 

Looking at me with shock as she said.

"Didn't you read the book that I gave you of the universe I created?" 

"Ohhh, that book"

I recalled the picture of a young boy fighting in the cover of the book, but never got the time to read it. 

Then she went on explaining how the evil wizard Voldemort has gained some new power through outside help, can now destroy the universe. Bla Bla Bla.

"OK, so what do I need to do?" I ask wanting her to send me to that world quickly so I can find a way to reclaim my powers.

"Well... You are going to be the wrong boy who lived because of who, your bro harry will be abandoned and your sister Rosalle will hate you due to your spoiled nature" There was the twist I was waiting for. 

Well, anything to reclaim my lost post. I responded that I would do it and a sweet smile graced her beautiful face. She raised her palm towards me and from it erupted a black wormhole which consumed me whole.

<Death POV>

Hope he won't rage when he realizes why I reincarnated him. May Shiva be beside you, and may he guide you with his eternal light like he always did. Also, before he reincarnates.

Let me just tweak his appearance so that he doesn't get an identity crisis when he sees his face, also as an added bonus let me make him handsome too, hehe.

Oh Neelkanth, someday my love for him will literally be the end of me, well no need for despairing as I am prepared to do anything for him.

[Anything]

<Rudra POV>

I cried for the first time in this life as my eyes greeted the light .  For a baby of my age the capability of detecting color was impossible.

But me I can see every color. I looked at the nurse who was about to slap my butt but before she could do such a thing I glared at her.

Maybe some of aura was still there because she stopped her motion as her face became pale and she begin to sweat due to her fear.

She quickly gave me into the arms of a beautiful woman. This woman had red hair and emerald eyes, as she looked at me with eyes filled with love.

But I knew who she was, she was my mother in this life known as Lily Potter the wife of James Potter.

Deciding to act as a baby, I cried and she cradled me in her arm with warmth and love. Ok now many may think I would cry because for the first time I got love from a mother

But....

I am not a love starved person if I had to classify I would dub myself as a sigma Chad as the young teens dub themselves in tiktok.

Oh wait I shouldn't break the fourth wall, well it's an one time mistake, not going to repeat it.
