Ace and Izu are at the newly established company and are ready to kickstart their operations. They have made all necessary preparations, and now it's time to officially commence their business activities. In the last month, they have successfully developed 20 worker-type Humagears to handle various operational tasks within the company. Furthermore, three specialized Humagears were created with their data fully intact.

“It is nice to meet you, Ikazuchi, Naki, and Shesta. I hope you three will do your best for the company.”

“Leave it to us, President. We will grow this company at least to the size of Hiden Intelligence.”

Meet Shesta, a Humagear designed for secretarial duties, much like Izu. She is dressed in a grey outfit with striking red highlights, complemented by vibrant red stockings and sharp, formal attire. Her icy blue eyes and neatly slicked-back hair exude a sense of professionalism. Although Shesta may come across as cold and indifferent, there is no denying her exceptional skills and capabilities.

“Don’t worry, you can count on us. With us here, nothing can go wrong.”

Ikazuchi is an Astronaut-type of Humagear. He is a member of Metsubojinrai.net in the world of Kamen Rider Zero-One. He has dirty blonde hair and red eyes. He wears a black jacket with black baggy pants. Ikazuchi has an aggressive and passionate personality, but he is very reliable and like a big brother to the group.

“Let us help achieve your dream, President. I’ll handle all of the company's systems.”

Naki is a System Engineer-Type Humagear who is also part of Metsubojinrai.net in the world of Kamen Rider Zero-One. She has an androgynous form and wears a black trench coat with a white collar shirt underneath. Although she may seem cold at a glance, she is caring and supports people's dreams.

(A/N: Naki is genderless in the show. I made her a woman in this novel.)

“It is nice to meet you again, Izu.” said Shesta.

“It's nice to see you, too, Shesta. You will be the company's vice president. I expect you to do your duty.”

“Of course, I will accomplish my duties. If you are so worried, becoming the vice president is not too late. I will be President Ace’s secretary.” Shesta said, her voice void of emotions.

“That will not be needed. I can only be with President Aruto as his secretary,” Izu persistently replied.

The intense gaze and imaginary sparks crackled between the two. The air was tense as they sized each other up. Ace was about to intervene, but Ikazuchi reacted first.

“Oh, you two are really going at it. Why don’t we all calm down? We are all comrades here. It is nice to see you two are competitive but no fighting.”

“...Very well, this fight is meaningless.” said Izu

This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.

“I agree.” said Shesta

The tension returned to normal, and Ikazuchi was satisfied.

“You’re amazing, Ikazuchi.” said Ace.

“Call me Raiden. As long as I am working in this company, Raiden is my name.”

“Okay, Raiden. I’m counting on you. That goes to everyone as well.”

The Humagears nodded to Ace. “Okay, Destiny Star is finally in business!”

Everyone clapped at Ace’s declaration.

(A/N: credits to ManicBubls_31 for the suggestion for the name of the company)

Destiny Star started by creating its first products, emphasizing the next generation of computers with enhanced processing power, graphics, and more. This was achievable thanks to the technology of Humagears and Kamen Rider Zero One's world. The level of technology in that world is higher and more advanced than in the present era. However, the resulting products would only provide slight improvements over the current ones for a few years.

Destiny Star will also release AI software products. The software can translate languages, summarize texts, engage in chatbot interaction, and more. Hidden Intelligence specializes in AI development and is part of Ace’s inheritance. By leveraging Hiden Intelligence's knowledge and technology, it should be able to dominate the market for AI products.

Naki's role involves supervising the company's systems and managing all computer operations. Raiden is currently responsible for maintaining equipment. Looking ahead, Ace intends to establish a space development center and launch the satellite Zea into space, just as it was initially in Zero-One’s world. Raiden, who has prior experience working in space, will be crucial in maintaining Zea once it is in orbit. However, Raiden's primary focus is on maintaining the company's equipment.

The Humagears are working hard in the factory to create the first products. After a month, the computers are ready to be shipped out to stores nationwide. Izu has already made the necessary connections while Ace was in school and doing his Rider activities. She was so competent that Ace couldn't remember if she was ever this good in the show, but he couldn't really complain since everything had gone smoothly. Ace only had to look over and sign documents, which he did not like very much because of how tedious the process was.

After a few months, Destiny Star's products became incredibly popular and sold very well. The computers were highly praised for their performance, leading to a surge in orders and requiring the factory to increase production to meet demand. Additionally, their AI software gained significant attention, with many users opting to purchase the monthly subscription, substantially increasing the company's revenue.

{The graphics are insane! I have never had such a smooth experience with this PC. Destiny Star is the best!}

{Their AI software is legit! Saved me some time to do my homework. I immediately bought the one-year subscription!}

Many reviews have been written, and 95% of them are overwhelmingly positive. This has made Ace happy. He did not expect the company to be so successful just a few months after starting, but not everything was perfect. Because the company is a small startup, Ace has received many notifications from Naki about their servers being hacked. She manages to block the hackers and prevent them from accessing their servers. She even discreetly stole some of the attackers' data, which could be used to trace them. In case Naki could not stop a hacker from getting past her defense, Ace had Ark on standby.

…

It is a school day, and Ace attends Midtown High as usual. He saw his friends and went to greet them. Ned runs him and shoves his phone into Ace’s face.

“Ace! Did you make this company!?” Ned shows Ace news articles of Destiny Star.

“Yeah, that’s right.”

“How come you did not tell us! I thought we were friends!” Ned cried comically while hanging onto Ace.

“Well, everything moved so fast I did not have time to tell you.”

“Your company has been getting a lot of attention, Ace. Everyone is using your AI software, and it is unbelievable. Even I’m using it.” said Gwen

“Hahaha, thanks.”

“Think you can hook us with some of your PCs” said Gwen, nudging him a bit

“Mmmmm… maybe if you ask nicely.”

“Hey Ace, do you mind if I interview you about your company?” asked MJ.

“Sure, I don’t mind.”

The group of friends continued their day, asking more questions about Destiny Star.
