3 Chapter 3: Rebirth
Darkness, now that is all the our protagonist can see. Or otherwise cannot see. Feeling sluggish and confused. After all even though he is now about to be born any minute now, he is still a baby.
"Ugh, I was just at a white room, now I'm in a womb. that was quite the doozy damn. Now, because I'm an infant my mental faculties must be quite amazing no? But I feel like my lucidity is going down real quick. Well I will sleep and wait for my birth 1st, my situation and development can wait, g'night."
Wolfgang wakes up once or twice a day, having enough time to contemplate the world he is in and how he is going to explore this new macrocosm. Though the time spent awake is usually just a couple of minutes before he tires.
He did notice that he is staying awake longer after he made a little experiment if his wish does work, after all he cannot test a lot while in the womb. Every day he can slowly increase the time being lucid, 5-10 seconds at the most. He doesn't know if it is due to effort or just thinking and being awake passively increases it. Concluding this experiment he will continue it after being born. He can feel that he will be born soon.
After a week of being bored out of his mind, not really analyzing heavily. Because he always feel sluggish, (totally not because he is lazy). He felt the walls around him contract, like those damned walls in those archeology movies he scoffed.
Then came the pain " Damn, I never thought the pain would be this immense. my head is being squeezed and my shoulders are folding to make my body smaller.
As he heard a woman have muffled screams for the last time, he finally saw blurry lights in this new world for the 1st time. It was magical really, no matter how blurry his sight is. Basically being legally blind at this time, rebirth is such a surreal experience for him. Then he cried, breathing greedily for his 1st breath of air.
Then he heard a woman speak, "It's a healthy baby boy." So they speak english here, what a relief. I at least have a head start, I wish the alphabet is the same.
Breaking his thoughts, a woman with a weak voice spoke. "Can I see him please, my darling baby boy." He concluded that the woman who spoke is his mother in this life.
He then thought that his mother might be a good mother, after all, she spoke with affection and her wanting to form a bond immediately with her son is a good sign of a strong maternal bond with the child.
Back in his previous life, he didn't know his father and his mother got pregnant at 14, giving birth at 15. Ultimately making him a child who was raised by their grandparents. So he did not know the love a mother can give. His mother lived as a teen even after giving birth to him after all. And even grandparents can be a child's parental figures. It surely will pop questions in a child's mind.
Speaking of parents, his mother now has golden blonde hair and deep green eyes. A beautiful woman with a small face and buxom figure. She is also relatively tall with a height of 5'9. Suiting her voluptuous body.
She was now currently holding him gently like she is holding the most precious gem in the world that can break with a soft touch. Looking at him with an affectionate gaze that promises love.
A few moments later a tall man then came to her side while looking at the little bundle of life. He was 6'3 tall with a head of paper white hair, (anime and game logic). He then shared a look with the woman and said "He's our pride and joy. What's his name love?"
"Hmm, he's big and looking healthy and strong. I believe he is destined for greatness, how about we name him einheri? Based on the einherjar of Valhalla? After all we have norse based names as well Eric."
The man chuckles "That we do, Frey. I love the name by the way, an army of one. But, he will not be alone, after all, we will be there for him until he becomes great."
Frey smiles widely "Yeah, he will be our little bundle of joy until then." She chuckles. Wolfgang now named Einheri, thought that his new name is a good one. Because he will make that name a reality. As his consciousness fades away due to exhaustion of being born a 2nd time.

What's up guys. Did you like the name? Einherjar is the multiple form and Einheri is the singular.
At the next chappy I'll probably start on the world building. This will probably epic in length. I don't know how long but if I make 500 to 1k words a chapter then it will probably reach atleast 150k words? or 200k likely more. after all, Honkai is a very complicated world and I think you guys would like the things I have in store for you kekeke.
100k words is very long here in webnovel in my opinion so that's that. anyways ciao
