Neo Domino City.

It is a name that people commonly call, and the official name is [Domino Special Self-Governing Province of the Republic of Korea].

It is the same as Jeju Island, but it has a different feel from the local government as a subordinate organization of the central administration.

If the Korean peninsula of Korea is a central country in medieval Europe, Neo Domino City is a republic where a specific group manages the entire city.

The President is not involved in the administrative affairs of Neo Domino City.

Korean law and international law apply to Neo Domino City, but there is something called the ‘Goblin Law’ that applies after the Constitution.

In Neo Domino City, all ordinances and rules are determined by the ‘Four Divine Beasts’ under the ‘Minister’ of Domino City.

A very special place where legislation, judiciary, and administration all transcend the central government of the Republic of Korea.

Even taxes do not receive budget support from the central government, but Neo Domino City generates its own revenue and utilizes the budget within the city.

Rather, the profits are left over and are then returned to the central government to contribute to the national finances in the form of ‘donations’.

Where this city’s revenue comes from is difficult to determine because there are so many different areas, but this is definitely not an ordinary thing.

someone said

[Jeju Island is jokingly called Tangerine Country, and Hong Gil-dong is said to have created his own country, Yuldo-guk, but the goblins have created their own country, ‘Domino City’!]

A country of goblins.

An individual took extralegal authority from the government and created his own local government.

How is this possible in 21st century Korea?

The secret is that the people who created this place are the Mangyang Company, and in the past and still today, it is a place called ‘association’.

No one could say anything.

-We will create a special administrative district to educate people with special abilities. Using this ability, I will create an island.

Because the world’s most powerful superpower, a goblin, created this city and island.

-If the existing land is the problem, let’s create a new land. It is not a national declaration. Since the land was created by moving soil from the Korean Peninsula, this is a land reclamation project and is clearly Korean territory.

The goblin took the lead.

-After creating an island at least as wide as Ganghwado Island, an educational institution will be established here, and this educational institution will replace the existing Sejong National Education Institute, which is an existing ability academy.

As soon as he became the president of Sejong Academy, he took steps to close it.

-Faculty and staff will be independently selected through internal tests within the association.

They even declared that the newly opened academy would be filled with new people, from the president to the cleaning staff.

-As a result of consultation with the Ministry of Education, the existing Sejong Academy will be reorganized into ‘Sejong Comprehensive School’, a general education institution, by preparing a university site near Daejeon.

All existing faculty and students will study directly from elementary, middle, and high school at Sejong Comprehensive School, but education here is no longer a special ability academy but follows the general curriculum.

-I would like to send students with special abilities to regular schools, but considering the speed of social change, I will have them teach separately at Sejong Comprehensive School for the time being.

Goblin ultimately wanted to abolish ‘a world where only those with special abilities receive separate education’, but the rapid change was problematic in many ways.

-There will be no discrimination in learning. However, in order to foster the skills of this ability, specialized education related to this ability will be provided. It could be said to be a kind of ‘talent specialized school.’

You only learn more specialized fields in the process of completing compulsory education before university.

Just as students who want to go towards Annie go to Annie High School.

-The newly created Neo Domino City will be a completely different place from the existing one. This place basically has the form of a university, but it will be a place that deals with ‘talents’ in a more specialized manner.

The goblin has already completed the idea of a new academy in Neo Domino City in his head.

-New student recruitment will be conducted through the ‘Proficiency Test’ in November 2027, one week after the College Scholastic Ability Test. The current announcement date is March 2026, so full-scale study will begin next year.

Just as one enters a university by taking the college entrance exam, one enters an educational institution by taking a proficiency test.

Anyone can knock on the door of Neo Domino City’s entrance control office, but even here, entering the ‘Academy’ required a separate test.

-This is not a place where only people with special abilities can enter. Those who want to study this ability, those who want to do work related to this ability, and those who want to lead the industry related to this ability in the future. Anyone who wants to study this ability can apply here.

An era where anyone can learn this ability.

An era where you can use this ability even without magical power.

-Making it possible for anyone to use this ability if they want to, even if they were born differently.

The goblin did not speak carelessly, but those who had already experienced it understood the meaning behind the goblin’s words.

one. Even in real life, special tools allow people who do not possess this ability to use this ability.

two. It allows you to freely use this ability in a world that is not reality at all.

At least compared to the world until 2025, this ability, which was the exclusive property of those born with mana, is no longer exclusive to certain humans.

Although there are some limits.

-As long as they do not abuse this ability, anyone can have the power to protect themselves, their family, and even the world. That is the philosophy of the academy that will be created in Neo Domino City.

Even those who do not possess this ability can use this ability to protect someone.

That is definitely a side of the world that the goblin and the organization company want.

then.

how?

-This is the secret.

The goblin took out a ‘card’ in front of everyone.

-This is my ‘super talented person card’. From C-class goblins to B-class goblins and A-class goblins. This is a card that allows you to use the goblin’s abilities in the cyber world.

Talent card.

It contains the information of the person with the ability, and based on this, the power to use the person’s ability in the war-brain world.

-Currently, the data of people registered with the company, America’s Heroes, and people with special abilities who voluntarily registered through cooperation will be sent to the card. Through this, you can experience the skills of that talented person.

If you have A-Class Snow White’s card, you have the power to freeze the city.

If you have the D-Class Snowwhite card, you have the power to freeze a plate.

– Those with special abilities will register their avatar in the whole brain world. With a level one level lower than their real level.

For those who are worried that their power may be revealed, Goblin said that he has set up his highest level card so that only he can have it.

-Each card will have a different rarity and will be distributed around the world. The penetration rate varies depending on the person with the skill. In the case of goblins, the probability of being a class F to C goblin is 89.2%, but the probability of a class B to A goblin is about 10.74%.

The goblin took out his square glasses and put them on.

-…sonar.

As soon as the goblin muttered something, a crooked, spinning card slowly danced down in front of his face.

-You can also register a card containing all of your power. You are free to spread it.

The card was [Bhyeongrang] of SX grade – Special Extra grade.

-There is only 1 of this card in the world. Something only I can use.

When the goblin put Bihyeongrang’s card in his pocket, several cards immediately appeared in front of him.

-I have registered these cards in Cardpool for you.

S-class. goblin.

S-class. Gentleman goblin.

S-class. Dodge Rider.

S-class. Seonbital goblin.

S-class. Goblin Mk.3

S+ level. Doji Rider-Gunggi.

S+ level. Dodge Rider-Dool.

S+ level. Doji Rider-Docheol.

S+ level. Dodge Rider-Chaos.

EX level. Patriotic master goblin.

Numerous goblin cards that revolve around goblin.

-All of them have S-class special abilities, and you can freely use the special abilities I registered on these cards. If you draw a card.

The goblin’s card soared high into the sky, and countless cards began to fly behind him.

– Just like playing with character card games when you were a child, just draw the cards carefully and then choose. A card you don’t need? Exchange with others. Selling is also possible. It will all remain in one’s ‘history’, but purchasing an avatar in the virtual world with real-life economic power is also an individual’s ability.

If you get an S-class goblin but don’t want it, selling the S-class card to someone who will buy it for hundreds of millions of dollars will be a great help to your real-life economic power.

-It’s all luck.

The goblin bundled dozens of cards into one and put them into the card case.

-There is only one way to get the card. It can be purchased at ‘Company Mart’ across the country, regardless of whether it is online or offline. Only with this card will you be able to enter Neo Domino City.

The era of dictatorship based on ability.

-Gacha! May it be a fun competition of abilities.

“Uh.”

Do Ji-wan, who passed Domino City’s entrance control center, was about to walk forward when his eyes turned to something on the floor.

“Why is the card on the ground?”

Do Ji-wan picked up the card.

That card is-
