Chapter 3 - On a very Ordinary Evening

In the twilight hours, Cyrus found himself enveloped in the mundanity of another ordinary evening. Clad in his customary attire of jeans, a sky-blue shirt, and flip-flops, he moved through the routine motions of his day with practiced ease. Little did he know that the tranquility of his existence was about to be shattered by an unexpected call—one that would plunge him into the heart of a clandestine world of intrigue and danger.

Suddenly he received a ring of his phone cut through the stillness like a blade, an anonymous call from the organization he works for secretly.

It's a black alert.

That means regardless of where you are you have to assemble at the organization headquarters. The organization I work for is called "The Silver Dawn".

Well, this needs no introduction. It's an organization dedicated to fighting against oppression, corruption, and injustice perpetrated by the aristocracy and other nefarious forces within society.

Comprised of individuals from all walks of life—nobles disillusioned with their class, commoners tired of suffering under tyranny, and skilled operatives seeking to make a difference—the Silver Dawn operates in secrecy, working to undermine the powers that seek to maintain the status quo.

Upon entering, I saw the organization's emblem, a silver sun rising over a horizon, symbolizing the promise of a new dawn and the hope for a better future. Members of the Silver Dawn often wear discreet silver jewelry or carry small tokens bearing the symbol as a sign of their allegiance to the cause. As soon as I entered the reception, I was given a veil and mask to allow us to see through but can't reveal our faces. It's to respect the member's privacy and also for security reasons.

Except for a few people on the top, like the Chairman, President, and Vice President, and a handful of people. No one knows the faces of agents. It's to maintain discreet and if anything happens it will not traced back to the Organization.

I reached to the main meeting room. with has a big screen That's where usually chairman and the president talk from and assign us tasks

And of course, they can't disclose their faces.

So we'll see them wear a veil too.

Well, That's how the Silver Dawn works. It may have our relatives, wives, or husbands we may never know. Until or unless they agree to disclose their face and information willingly.

It is the most reputed organization.

Everyone knows about this organization.

Still, nobody can touch it.

I have a speculation, Though it's only in my head

I think that someone from the royalty is helping the organization. Otherwise, it's nearly impossible to function considering the situation of the kingdom.

That's another tragic story. Let's not think about it for now.

I know it's a lot. Like how can someone from royalty help us to dig sand on themselves?

Oh lord! I might get crucified if I say this out loud.

So it's gonna be our little secret

I reached for the chair that had my name on it. on the huge meeting room that has 20 tables. almost 80% is filled.

They all looked at me I bowed my head. They also did.

That's our way of saying hello and how are you.

I don't particularly sense any animosity from them.

Oh, by the way, you might wonder how I know that.

Well, I have Pathokinesis, often referred to as emotion manipulation, which is the psychic ability to influence, control, or manipulate the emotions of oneself or others.
