The Trash Wants to Live

Chapter 31

Proofreader: Kitjee

Huh?

A message appeared in front of me. A message I hadn't seen since the first day I possessed this body appeared before my eyes again.

[God has been moved by your heart of sacrifice for others.]

[The God gives you a present.]

[Player. Sacrificing for others is indisputably noble, but please spare yourself.]

[Please check the present in the skill window.]

It was as if it knew I was in danger and helped me. As the message said, I opened the skill window to check my new abilities.

This is

As I was reading the contents of my abilities, I unknowingly made a sound before quickly shutting my mouth. Fortunately, the dinosaur didn't seem to hear.

Just below [Information] and [Premonition], the new ability was shining and caught my attention.

[Ability Borrower].

[You're in a critical situation. You're incompetent? Don't worry! With this ability, youll become a gifted person! You can borrow abilities by kissing someone who has an ability! Oh! It's not extortion. You just borrow it!]

[Slot 1] [Slot 2] [Slot 3] []

What the hell is this

Kiss? Kissing? Im going to borrow someone's ability by doing that? I don't know why I had to kiss to borrow someones ability.

No, then Should I kiss him now?

I looked down at Jung Yi Joon, who fainted. This guy With me? No, wait a minute! This is a mens harem fantasy

Why do I have to kiss him all of a sudden?

Why are you deviating from the genre? I wanted to pull my hair out in this situation. But I had no choice.

Im sorry, Jung Yi Joon.

Yoon Jae-ya?

I said I was sorry for having to kiss him, whether it was his first or second kiss. It was an apology that could not be heard by Jung Yi Joon, whose eyes were closed in unconsciousness, but I spoke anyway and grasped his cheeks. 

As I closed my eyes tightly and brought my lips closer, I felt the soft flesh bumping into each other.

Uwaahhhh!

When I opened my eyes again after removing my lips from Jung Yi Joon, I could see Jang Eui Yeol's face with his mouth wide open as he saw me molesting the unconscious Jung Yi Joon.

"Yoon Jae, you"

"Wait, look."

Rather than make excuses for my actions, I chose to show my ability instead. Fortunately, I seemed to be borrowing not only the ability but information regarding it as well. I reached out as instinct led me. When I saw a haze like Jung Yi Joons rising at the tip of my fingers, Jang Eui Yeol gasped.

"That's."

I concentrated. One of the twigs floated fluently in my palm, moving in the direction I wanted. I knew I could move things much bigger and heavier than this.

[Time limit: 9 minutes and 24 seconds].

"So Im borrowing it for 10 minutes."

Since there are 5 slots, is it 50 minutes in total? I kissed Jung Yi Joon again.

Huck!

Why am I doing it again? Jang Eui-yeol looked at me with quivering eyes. One slot, which was only half filled earlier, was completely full. I thought 20 minutes would not be enough, so I tried it again, but it was useless.

[The same ability can only be borrowed twice.]

There was a limit. It was a pity, but I couldn't help it. I told Jang Eui Yeol, who was shocked by my repeated harassment.

"I'll lure the dinosaur, so hide well here. Got it?

"Yoon Jae-ya It's dangerous."

I knew it was dangerous. However, it was useless to hide unless the dinosaur gave up.

But it cant be helped since it keeps looking for us. I'll keep it far away Please take care of Yi Joon.

I didn't listen to Jang Eui Yeol's reply and just went outside. The longer we delayed, the closer it would get to us. I moved out of the pit, keeping my body down.

I couldn't move without making a sound, so I could see it turning its head around as if it heard me. 

I can do it. It's possible.

I was tired physically, but my mind was at ease. Hiding behind the tree, I reached out my hands to the rock that Jung Yi Joon threw at the dinosaur earlier.

The rock, which was immobile, moved slightly, and the moment it rose into the air, the dinosaur noticed my position.

"Its too late!"

I threw the rock straight at the guy running at me. Maybe it was because I wasn't as experienced as Jung Yi Joon, I couldn't perform a headshot, but because I hit its torso, its large body stumbled. The moment it fell, I ran like crazy.

My plan went like this. Trick it into thinking that Jung Yi Joon wasn't the only one with abilities and that we were after the dimension stone. 

When it falls for the trick, it wouldnt be able to judge when we would attack, so instead of chasing us, it would stay next to the dimension stone to defend it. Since one of us may break it whilst it chases another.

I returned to my senses and threw rocks at the dinosaur that was chasing me. They missed by a narrow margin, but the rocks were broken by the impact and the debris seemed to have splattered over its body. Watching it stagger, I ran to the point where the dimension stone was.

The quick-witted one realised that my target was the dimension stone and ran frantically.

I pretended to throw a rock at the dimension stone. Of course, the dimension stone had a glass-like appearance, but I knew that it wouldnt be scratched that easily, even if I had thrown a rock the size of the ones Id thrown at the dinosaur. 

In fact, my goal was not to break the dimension stone, but to lure the dinosaur to protect it and run away after, so I pretended to break it.

It ran to me,  with eyes moving around frantically in agitation. 

Bam! Bam! Bam! The ground shook. I kept the dinosaur in check as I slipped away from the dimension stone.

If I ran away too quickly, it could probably catch on, so I threw rocks or trees at it and continued to pretend to aim for the dimension stone.

This tactic seemingly worked, as the dinosaur was wary of me with its back against the dimension stone and it didn't come closer.

Let's leave now.

I thought that would be enough, so I didn't delay any further and took a step back. I was staring at it, and it stared at me.

As I tried to hide myself in the forest again, I moved my body as if expecting it to suddenly run, and tried to protect myself by lifting a tree that fell reflexively.

Darn it!

That's when the time limit ended. The dinosaur's expression changed as it saw the tree that was rising following my hand gesture lose its strength and fall to the floor with a Thump!"

It seemed to recognise that I was powerless.

As soon as I knew I was caught, I ran without hesitation. It was heartbreaking. The dinosaur, who ran toward me, smashed the place where I was previously standing with its body.

"Argh!"

I was pushed to the ground by its destructive force. It was shaking off the broken wood debris and was turning to face me.

I had to run away, but I couldn't stand up because my legs were shaking. Damn it! I managed to pull myself up, and that was when it tried to rush at me again.

Suddenly, a huge bull appeared from behind and began to run towards the dimension stone. The dinosaur, which was staring blankly at the sudden intrusion, stopped approaching me and ran to the bull.

"Yoon Jae!"

"Eui Yeol?"

After the monsters disappeared, it was Jang Eui Yeol that appeared in front of me. When I scolded Jang Eui Yeol, asking him why he was here, he just chuckled.

Meanwhile, the bull and the dinosaur were facing each other. Of course, the dinosaur was bigger in size and had more strength, but the dinosaur seemed to be concerned that I might use my powers again.

Then, something even more surprising happened. As Jang Yeol gestured, I could see the bull facing the dinosaur slowly retreating.

You?"

When I stared blankly at the scene, Jang Eui Yeol chuckled again. The bull withdrew and approached us, and we hid in the forest with the bull.

The dinosaur just stared at us, next to the dimension stone, as we disappeared.

"Oh"

"Yoon-ya!"

When the dinosaur was no longer in sight, I relaxed and lost consciousness. In my darkening field of vision, Jang Eui Yeol called to me, but I couldn't answer. It was dark.

* * * (Eui Yeols POV)

After Yoon Jae disappeared saying that he would become bait, I was distressed by my helplessness.

When I first arrived here, I had relied on Yi Joon's power, and now I hated myself relying on Yoon Jae's power.

"Me too I wish I had power."

Normally, it wasnt something Id wish for. It would be good if I had power or money, but I didn't think it would matter if I didn't. However, the moment I needed it, it was not there, and it was too inconvenient.

I want to have a strong power.

I wanted to have power so that I didn't have to watch helplessly. It was the first time, when the dinosaur displayed its power, that I had ever felt so helpless. The power to protect my people!

It was this earnest desire which awoke the power inherent in Eui Yeols body, a power that would have originally only manifested when he turned 20.

"Ah

My eyes widened at the explosive power that came from my chest. Naturally, I realised my power. I could feel a thin thread connected to my body.

It was a thread that led beyond this place to the outside and I could see what lay at the end of it.
