Axel, Ethan, and Rachel walked into the CIA headquarters, their footsteps echoing through the secure corridors. They were greeted by Thompson, a seasoned CIA operative with a no-nonsense attitude.
"Good to see you three again," Thompson said, his eyes scanning their faces. "You've been briefed on the mission, but let's go over the details again. Your target is a man named Auric Frost, a notorious tech mogul with a reputation for ruthlessness."
Thompson activated a holographic display, projecting an image of Auric Frost. "Frost's backstory is shrouded in mystery, but we know he was once a brilliant hacker who turned to legitimate business after serving time in prison. He's built a vast empire, but our sources indicate he's still involved in some shady dealings."
Axel's eyes narrowed as he studied Auric Frost's image. "What's his connection to us?" he asked.
"We suspect Frost is selling high-tech computers to rogue nations and organizations," Thompson replied. "But there's something fishy about it. Our sources indicate that Frost is hiding something, and we need you three to find out what it is."
Ethan leaned forward, his eyes sparkling with interest. "What's our cover?" he asked.
"You'll be posing as students at a prestigious university in France," Thompson said. "Frost is scheduled to attend a tech conference in Paris, and we believe he'll be making some high-stakes deals. Your mission is to infiltrate Frost's operation, gather intel, and determine what's really going on."
As Thompson continued to brief them, Axel's eyes glazed over for a moment. Suddenly, a notification flashed in his mind's eye.

"Alright, let's get to work," Axel said, his voice firm. "We've got a mission to complete."
Ethan and Rachel nodded in agreement, their faces set with determination. Axel smiled to himself, knowing that he had a personal stake in the mission. He was ready to take on Auric Frost and uncover the truth behind his operation.
