Thank you for the update!
Something that really stood out, compared to other stories of romance between mythical beings and humans, is the conversation that the two leads had about their differing mortalities.
Maru clearly stated,"You are the person I will love in this era."
This doesn't necessarily imply that he'll take another lover once the MC passes away; maybe he will, maybe he won't - and both situations are equally plausible.
I choose to interpret this as him saying that for MC's entire lifetime, however long it may be, Maru is going to stay. He is committed, while acknowledging that this is, unfortunately, not a forever thing.
It made me pretty emotional and slightly upset, but I appreciate this subtle realism of admitting to the human life span of MC, as compared to other authors who conveniently show that either the immortal one loses their immortality, or the mortal one becomes a mythical being too, all without consequences or regret.
And then, the MC's heartening response, that he hopes Maru will guide him through hell- Maru's home, after his passing, is pretty bittersweet and adorable. It's a quiet message that even if their bizarrely differing life spans will someday bring a lot of hurt and devastation to both, MC is not going to let go, he is going to cherish what they have, however long it runs.
(In case you watch kdramas, this seems quite a bit similar to Goblin.)
We readers, especially the hopeless romantic lots, prefer to read stories that end in forevers and start with optimistic beginnings.
But this story is unique.
For it is about the love that blossomed between two individuals, at different points in their life. For one, it will be a fond memory to look back on, and for another, it will be the bliss of a life well-spent. Two lines, parallel, that intersected briefly in the flow of time, to create a magical pattern, before unwillingly going separate ways again.
Painful, yet beautiful.
And who knows, maybe, in a different life, under other circumstances, they will meet again, and finally have their forever(=・ω・=)

Never seen a translator on mangago with this much personality and humorThanks for picking this up tl-nim! (=・ω・=)
Not the author pulling random convenient lore out of their ass just so the main leads can fuck
The very fact that the author had to put in a note like that is proof that even THEY can't deny the immaculate BL potentialPlus, this may not be /written/ as a BL BUT nowhere does the author specify their sexuality to be straight sogo off homies!
