The Happiness That The Shinigami Gave Me - V1 Chapter 28
T/N: Extra chapter here! By the way, it’s the end of the first volume! What do you think of the story so far? Also, this is a good place to stop for a bit since the editor will be out of town for his new year holiday, so there won’t be any chaps after a while. Anyway, happy holiday and happy new year, everyone!
Volume 1 Chapter 28
I heard a sinister laughter in the darkness.
I woke up. But, I couldn’t move my body.
“Good evening, Yuuma-kun.”
Ah, it’s him.
I shifted my gaze to the side and saw an ominous shade. It was a dark presence in the shape of a human.
‘It’s been a while, Shinigami-san.’
My thoughts were promptly delivered to him as he gave me a reply,
“Yeah, it’s been a while. Hehe, you worked hard today. You rushed to Natsuhara Suzuno’s side as soon as you realized her condition, didn’t you?”
‘I kept my promise.’
“Yes.” he nodded. His afro shook as he did.
“But, don’t let your guard down yet. This isn’t the end of our contract.”
‘…I see.’
I saved Suzuno today, but it seemed like it wasn’t enough…
‘I’m only alive to protect Suzuno…’
I reaffirmed my stance on our contract and the shinigami smirked.
“Correct. Don’t forget that you’re alive now because of your contract with me. Don’t get too comfortable living your parasitic life.”
Parasitic.
Right, I was merely a parasite in the Yamaoka’s house.
No matter how good they treated me, I wasn’t a part of their family.
Also, I was about to die again soon.
For those two to worry about me…I couldn’t let that happen.
“You seem to have came to a conclusion.”
The shinigami smiled in satisfaction.
Ah, he truly was the shinigami. Nothing could get past him.
Well, it didn’t matter.
I only needed to care about Suzuno.
Today’s incident made me aware of that fact. If something were to happen to her, I didn’t think I could take it well.
Until now, she had been living painfully. I needed to change that.
‘Don’t worry. I’ll keep my promise to you, Shinigami-san.’
After I showed him my determination, the shinigami gave out a satisfied smile and disappeared. I went back to my sleep soon after.

This has been really interesting so far, one of my top reads for sure. The MC is starting to get a bit of development with the latest chapters but this left me with a kind of ominous feeling, especially with how the shinigami called him a parasite. Im really liking the FMC so far as well, she has an interesting (and pretty cute at times) personality. Really looking forward to seeing where the story goes especially since things are only going to delve deeper into Suzuno’s family and past from here on, and I’m also pretty interested in how MC will handle it and how he’ll grow as a person too. Hell, this story is so good that I almost completely forgot about the fact that this is a romance novel while reading it, which is rare since I usually only read romcoms for the romance part of it. Anyway, thanks for the high quality translations as usual, and I’ll be looking forward to volume 2! (And happy new years in advance!)
