Instructor Targiot Fabarossa is dead.

“Keuuu!!

It doesn’t mean he actually died.

The superpower card used by Cho Ki-jeong, ‘Sealing Spear of Light’, only pierced Targiot’s body as he became a demon, and blood did not flow from his entire body.

“The ability to seal magic power. Among ability cards, it is a power that can only be used in very special situations.”

Jo Ki-jeong patted the shoulder of Targiot, who had been pierced by the spear of light and had now clearly become a ‘monster of a megalith.’

“If you are overcome by this spear of light, you will die. As a person with special abilities.”

“Oh….”

Do Ji-wan stuck out his tongue.

Although it is a sight I have never seen before, it is said that the magic power of the Light Wing Gong is extremely effective against demons.

“Are you doing genloss?”

“Okay. From now on, it will slowly become genloss.”

The sight of a Class A person with special abilities standing still, unable to move, and slowly dying ‘as a person with special abilities’ was meaningful in many ways.

“Don’t blame yourself. This is what happened because I behaved unbecoming an instructor and had a mindset unbecoming an instructor.”

“I don’t blame myself.”

Do Ji-wan stretched out his hand towards the former guardian of Florence, Italy, who was emitting white smoke with a ‘push’ sound.

“It’s just a pity. If Italy had not sent this person to the academy as an instructor, he would not have come here and committed such acts and degenerated into a devil.”

“Everyone has no choice but to change when their environment changes.”

Jo Ki-jeong pointed beyond Targiot, which was going into decline.

“I don’t know what’s waiting for you there, but let’s go in quickly. This person is…”

“Arrived!!”

Sigh.

With a roar, three police bikes flying through the air on hovercraft stopped next to Tarziot.

“Targiot Fabarossa! Florence Guardian! We caught the whole situation through your Taegeuk Watch!”

“The ruling is that you are the one responsible for becoming a devil! Arrest the genrossed Tarziot Fabarossa!”

“Tie it up!”

Those who got off the bike were talented people wearing Korean police uniforms.

“Platinum’s Poseungjul, open!”

“Wow!”

The magic power that came out from the hands of the three supernatural powers began to glow brilliantly in platinum color.

Soon, a long whip-like platinum-colored rope was flowing down from their hands, and the police officers riding the bikes slightly bent the handlebars.

“Arrest ㅡ!”

Whirling.

When I threw the end of the rope, it bent like a snake opening its mouth.

Sigh!

The end of the rope caught Tarziot in an instant.

One for the wrist, one for the forearm, and one for the thigh.

“Kaaaa!!”

Targiot screamed and resisted, but the sealing spear of light that pierced his body confined him tighter the more he resisted.

Pushyyy.

The white smoke escaping from Zenroth grew stronger, and the more Tarziot resisted, the more mana escaped from his body.

“Turn it—!”

“Spin, start ㅡㅡ!”

The moment the rope was wrapped around Tarziot’s body, three police officers grabbed the handlebars of the bike, holding the rope with one hand.

Buaaaang ㅡㅡㅡㅡ!!

The bike rotates using Targiot as the axis of the circle.

At the moment of one turn, the rope wrapped around Tarziot’s body, and in an instant, Tarziot’s chest, abdomen, and thighs were tied with the rope.

Round and round.

After a few more laps.

“Arrested, complete!”

The sealing spear of light that pierced Tarziot’s entire body seemed to have fulfilled its role and dissipated into fog, and instead, only a platinum-colored rope wrapped around Tarziot’s body.

“…….”

thud!

Tarziot stumbled and fell sideways.

He was wrapped in rope from his arms to his legs and could no longer move, and Tarziot was completely arrested.

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

Each person had a nameplate that read ‘Dominopolis’ and an unidentified phrase that read ‘Lv.6 Inspector Kim’ engraved on their chest.

“The two of you are definitely…”

“Academy new student Jo Ki-jeong.”

“…….”

“It is called Jo Ki-jeong.”

“Ah, huh, um.”

Inspector Kim’s hand, which was trying to salute while stopping the bike in the air, waved above his head for a moment.

“…Anyway, are you hurt anywhere?”

“Yes, no.”

“Okay! The situation has already been identified through Taegeuk Watch! Although I am taking the place of someone who is no longer an instructor!”

Inspector Kim pointed to the door and saluted like a soldier.

“Congratulations on your admission, you two!”

Saaaa.

The door blocking the two opened.

[Welcome to Domino Academy.]

A mature woman’s voice rang out from the speaker, and Do Ji-wan was mesmerized by the scene unfolding beyond the door.

Beyond the vast expanse of grassland.

In front of the stone bridge stretching straight ahead.

Between the majestic buildings that look like they are replicas of Gwanghwamun.

Visible beyond the doors that open to the left and right is a huge ‘high-rise building’ that resembles a royal palace from the Joseon Dynasty.

“That place is the learning ground where all mankind will learn new abilities in the future…”

“Domino Academy.”

The lofty foundation of learning that slopes towards the sky.

“That’s a goblin bat…?”

“It’s just an informal statement.”

It was high, huge, and majestic, rising as if it would pierce the clouds in the sky.

* * *

Late evening.

Domino Academy’s landmark, [Goblin’s Tower].

Around the pagoda were several 10-story buildings with a variety of architectural styles unique to the Joseon Dynasty, and in the middle of them, instead of a royal palace, there was a pagoda facing the sky.

“That place is the new home of learning for humanity.”

Do Ji-wan, who was assigned to the temporary dormitory [Room 1204], clicked his tongue as he looked at the goblin’s tower beyond the window.

“I can’t believe they made that in one morning.”

Just one day.

The tall tower rising into the sky from an empty plain was the landmark of Domino Academy itself, and it was so high that its top could be seen even from the coast of the Korean Peninsula far away.

The ability that created such a tower was also an ability, but the ‘purpose’ of the tall tower made the listener laugh out loud.

“It’s not some kind of tower climbing game.”

All students are ‘newbies’.

The newbies can refine their abilities through ‘education’ one by one, starting from the lower floors, and increase their grades as they move up to the higher floors.

And if you reach the 100th floor and pass the 100th floor exam, you will graduate.

There are eight more floors above that, but someone said that goblins live on the 100th floor.

“…….”

Do Ji-wan sat with his body halfway on the window sill and looked down.

Wide square.

Many academy freshmen, including Do Ji-wan, are socializing, holding plates, laughing and chatting with each other under a placard that says ‘New Student Welcome Party.’

“Hey, you too?!”

“Wow, me too! It’s been a while!”

“Do you have any good cards? Do you want to trade with me?”

Some people search for cards they have with someone they haven’t seen in a long time.

“Among the freshmen, those with special abilities….”

“Tsk. Why are there more incompetent people than expected? Are you really trying to organize that class together?”

“No matter how much you have a cybernetic world, if you can’t use this ability in reality…”

Some people are trying to make their own differences based on common sense and prejudice outside the academy.

“Wow, that guy is S-rank from Greece! A freshman?!”

“Why are you a freshman…? By any chance, is your intention to complete graduation as quickly as possible to obtain the ‘right to wish’ from the goblin and then receive the goblin’s seed?”

Someone else finds famous people and then tries to find out their purpose for being new students.

“…….”

Do Ji-wan quietly looked down from the 12th floor temporary dormitory building.

They were talking so loudly that the noise could be heard all the way up to the 12th floor, but the stories of the countless freshmen were not in vain.

“Academy, how will it be operated? I heard that classes will be organized for the opening ceremony tomorrow, March 2nd.”

“Don’t they usually tell you the schedule before school starts…?”

“So. First of all, I know that there are five and a half…”

Because everyone doesn’t know.

“Damn. Does anyone among the instructors know anything? This is not to say that professors participated in the CSAT, but how can there be so little information?”

“No matter how goblin-created the academy is, it’s okay to tell them the specific curriculum they plan to teach on the first day of school…”

“You can guess. The goal is to create a world where even non-talented people can make a fuss to the S level in the electric world. Heung.”

“Well. How about that?”

While everyone’s guesses and inferences are rampant.

“Ha.”

Only Do Ji-wan quietly drank canned coffee and lamented alone.

“It seems that none of the new students are aware of the true purpose of this academy.”

Do Ji-wan mutters lonelyly to himself.

“I tried to watch the newbies while watching them alongside them, but there are a lot of them whose brains are more rotten than I thought.”

Unlike the appearance he showed from the outside, he looked down with an extremely cool and cold expression and voice.

“You’ve already created factions and divided ranks. We’re holding a welcome party for new students to get to know each other, before anyone gets started in earnest…Tsk.”

Do Ji-wan turned his head to the side.

“I feel sorry.”

“Oh my, what?”

“I think I will be sent to the ‘infirmary’ a lot from now on.”

“Oh my. If there is a lot of work, I like it.”

Do Ji-wan’s room.

“I was waiting for the academy to open.”

The white-haired woman sitting gently on the bed laughed lowly and knocked on the bed.

“You can dedicate yourself to the country even in a 6-person ward, but I’m afraid it won’t work in a 1-person room.”

“That’s not what I’m saying.”

“It doesn’t matter if not.”

The woman gently pulled the lapel of her gown towards Do Ji-wan.

“Anyway, those friends will learn that the answer is to be patriotic instead of fighting. That’s right, Dojiㅎ-”

“Wan.”

Do Ji-wan picked up a can of coffee again.
