Night, the time when many people are in their homes.
But even at night, the city remains lively.
Skyscrapers propping up the sky, beautiful streets and eternally shining lights decorated the city.
In one of the skyscrapers there was a handsome guy about 25 years old.
He was wearing a strict black suit with a white shirt.
In front of him was a holographic chess board with pieces.
He was playing a game with artificial intelligence.
"I made a Battery 1, I wonder what you will do?"
The AI eliminated the bundle called the Battery and began to advance.
"There's a trap here."— The guy smiled expecting such a move.
Once trapped, the AI begins to think through a strategy.
When the AI made a move, the guy decides that it's time to dominate the field.
"How do you answer that, Atlantean?"—The guy rearranged the pieces and went on the offensive.
A cheeky smile played on his face.

Competition, an event that many USP students were waiting for.
At this event, they could prove themselves.
So people from poor families could rise in society and gain fame.
They could show the world their inventions that previously seemed impossible.Abilities that tear the earth apart.
Everyone could watch the contest.
Only Atlant, the country with the largest number of supers, could afford to show off their young talents.
In a world where everyone can find information about any super, it's useless to hide something.
Atlant not only boasts, but also shows its military and industrial power by deterring states from wars.
Formed after the end of World War II, Atlant recruited all the supermen who wanted to get freedom.
The founders of the country had only one goal.
A world in which supermen and humans can coexist.
The wall in the form of superpowers will always stand.This problem cannot be solved.
Envy and anger.That's what ordinary people experience in front of the stars.
But the Atlantean showed that the supers are the same people and broke prejudices over and over again.
The anger of the people decreased, replaced by admiration.
Heroes and Rescuers are the key projects of Atlanta.
Supers protecting the people, supers saving the people.
Each of these supers is subordinate to the state.
They are their strength, they are their support, they are their shield.
Heroes and Rescuers have become an integral part of the country.
The founders' dreams have come true.A world in which supermen and humans rely on each other to rise higher and higher.
Therefore, a competition is held every year in USP.
Nothing is hidden from people.
For trust, you need to show the sincerity of your actions.

Orion walked through the campus of students.
Each building was decorated in honor of the competition.
Many people flooded the USP to see the young talents of their country.
Soon Orion came to an open platform where the best technological projects were selected.
The jury consisted of representatives of different companies.
The most famous were the representatives of the company O.A.K.
Kevin Pierce was one of the respected researchers in the field of gadgets.
His achievements have saved the lives of many supers.
Orion looks around looking for Ei with his eyes.
"She performs at 10:30.So it's her turn soon"
Looking at the smartphone clock, the guy thinks.
— The next speaker is Kurosaki Ei from the SP23‐7 group, which specializes in creating supernatural equipment!
Ei wore a white coat, as if to say that she was a scientist.
Through the robe, you could see her project "Booster".
— And where is her assistant, who will show the device's abilities?One of the spectators asked.
Hearing these words, the rest of the people also whispered, discussing why she went out alone.
Meanwhile, Ei tapped the microphone with her finger.
An unpleasant sound went through the whole area.
People hearing this sound were looking for its source and saw a girl holding a microphone.
— Hi. — She said standing on the platform.
— My Booster project is designed to perform various quick maneuvers.Even while in the air, it shows good efficiency.
The girl began to present her creation.
— Let's omit the theoretical part and start practicing right away.— Ei smiled looking at the jury.
Then she took off her white robe, showing everyone her slender figure, which was wearing tight sportswear.
"And she dared, since she decided to show the device's abilities on herself."
Kevin, the O.A.C. representative, thought.
The platform had an area of ten by ten meters.
There is enough space to show the Ei project.
Using mana, Ei presses the right button of the Booster.
Strong pressure from the Booster allows the girl to instantly fly a few meters.
Spinning her body, she literally flew all over the platform from side to side.
Her eyes were calm, and the maneuvers she did were graceful.
Thinking that this is a great demonstration, the girl during the flight down reduces the speed thanks to mana and sits on the splits in front of the jury.
Seeing such an incredible acrobatic performance, the crowd was delighted and applauded.
The jury was also surprised by such an eccentric presentation of the project.
Only one guy thought differently.
"Yes, this is pure ostentation!And the twine, why the twine at the end?Isn't it too vulgar!?"
Orion in his thoughts lamented this "show".
