    You think this will become a true harem or normal japanese harem where the MC picks one girl by the end of the story?

    Name: Hyaku Ma No Omo
    Raws: http://ncode.syosetu.com/n8125cd/
    NU link: http://www.novelupdates.com/series/hyaku-ma-no-omo/
    Reason: I find the first 7 chapters that were translated were interesting, and I know there are a lot of people who have been trying to get more chaps including me. Hikki no Mori has also officially put it on hold, so we won't be expecting any chaps from them
    Description:
    Merea was summoned to a place called “Sacred Mountain of Lindholm” where spirits gather upon their death. He was called upon using an Otherworldly Grass which found it’s way to his world. The reason for summoning him was to dispel the lingering attachment and/or regrets of a group of heroic spirits from another world.

    Brought up as a hero to dispel regrets, the era of the world made him into a demon lord instead.

    I tried translating the first chapter, I have never really translated before but anyways..

    His remaining days are now over.
    Swaying and swaying it's body, the shinigami approaches the hospital's pure white room, but his target is seemingly doing nothing, gazing at the sky.
    That day, because his body is in a normal state, he was allowed to go out this one time as if sympathizing with him one last time.

    While staring at his hand which is now so thin that he wouldn't have never imagined it to be his before , he walked around the hospital's premises.
    At the beginning, there is definitely regret. But once you are prepared to die, everything will feel helpless.
    As time flies, you will eventually surrender to it.
    Well...I guess that's just life.
    What is there in the afterlife? That, I'm also a bit curious.
    That is why in this last stroll allowed, it wasn't really depressing.
    After circling around the hospital's site for two laps, I returned back to the room with determination.
    Suddenly, it was at that time.
    On the way back, at a corner of the garden lawn planted with grass, there was a huge, towering tree calmly standing tall.
    Underneath that tree, a never seen before light-purple plant all of a sudden sprouted it's head.
    ――I wonder what kind of plant it is.
    I, although unable to move normally anymore, there is still willpower that is left inside. So I began to think of the bits of memories I have in this world, but even in the plant illustration book or the animal illustration book, I did not have a single information on that sort of plant in my memory.
    Perhaps, it might also be simply me that did not know of it, but by all means that plant's growth sparked my curiosity, so I decided to ask the attending nurse for help to carry it to the hospital.
    The young nurse asked, 「 which one is it ? 」with her head tilted sideways.
    Since it's becoming troublesome, I would just scoop it up myself, putting it in a suitable pot with earth inside.

    Then, I spent my remaining tranquil days watching over the plant every day, gazing at it growing very fast in contrast to my body that is about to die.

    ◆◆◆
    After five days.
    ――The Shinigami stood by in front of the hospital room.
    It was a Shinigami with a beautiful face.
    『 Is it good enough ? 』The Shinigami asked with a soft smile.
    She, by asking one by one, shows how sincere she is.

    「 Yeah, it's good enough. 」
    As a Shinigami, it's probably not an existence that waits for me.
    The truth is, I still have a bit of a lingering affection.
    At least, I wanted to see this plant bloom flowers..
    That light-purple plant, till now still haven't bloomed flowers, even if a bud is already there.
    Because I picked it up with much trouble and raised it until my very last moments, I wanted to see it's flowers.
    『 Don't worry. That flower will bloom soon. You merely need to wait a little, maybe around 10 more seconds? 』

    As if she had been able to see through my mind, her words continued to spun in my head while she remained smiling.

    The Shinigami, without me noticing when, had walked right next to me.

    She really has a beautiful face, the Shinigami with an indifferent look on her face.

    Suddenly, she extended her hand towards inside the pot.

    『 When the flower blooms, it will be the time for your journey. 』
    The Shinigami gently touches the flower bud with affection.
    Then, she turned her face to look at me with the same affection.
    「 I see. To be able to see the flower, that is good then. 」
    『 Well then, let's wait for the flower to bloom together with me. 』
    Then after that, silence filled the room.
    The clock's hand ticked silently.
    Under such circumstances, this heavy body gradually felt lighter, and with the sun's glaring light, I squinted my eyes to see.
    ―― Finally, the time has come.

    The bud's body jolted and began to ripe.

    Will the flower bloom? Or will it not bloom? I was worried looking at the bud jolting and beginning to ripe.

    ―― Go!

    ―― You can do it!

    ―― Show me your flower at my last moments!

    And then,

    The flowers..

    「 It bloomed. 」

    It's very beautiful, it gave off a very faint light..

    It really is..

    Beautiful...

    ―――
    ――

    And this is even after I saw Hikki no Mori's which I then corrected 2 mistakes on my translation..

    Oh, and my Jp is nowhere near good enough for complete hand-to-hand translation, I use a mix of translating words to words and my own understanding, then I proof check it with MT.

    If there is still no one who wants to pick this up, please see over my translation and you decide whether it's good enough or not. But of course I will try translating chapters 2-7 if you want to compare it with Hikki no Mori's more.

    @Dusk How about making a group for only translating this? I am also interested and did a chapter (which u did), but keep it to myself.

    P/s: also, i think that shinigami/death god is a male with an androgynous body contour (e.g: beautiful face, slender figure etc).

    That would be great! Especially since this is my first time trying to translate, so anyone with better Japanese / having more experience than me is reassuring.

    Oh, and for the shinigami, Yeah, you are probably right actually, but It kinda feels weird for me when someone say beautiful male, so I kinda opted not to change and this could show my mistakes too.

    Mc do talk about how "androgynous" / feminine the shinigami is even though he is a guy later on. And the shinigami also used "boku" sometimes, mostly "jibun" (oneself). I imagined him to be looks like "a long-haired blond guy, with slender body and gentle attitude" like tsukiyomi-sama from Tsuki no Michibiku. user258029_pic57468_1458140297.jpg
