7th Agency

The Seventh Agency (第七機関) is an organization composed of multiple smaller groups that has existed since before the Great Dark War. They specialize in doing research on magic element and Magic Formula, and mainly focus on using science, as opposed to the World Void Information Controlling Organization who focus mainly on Magic Formula. Seventh Agency considers the Controlling Organization to be their main adversary and polar opposite. It is run by the Committee.

Information
The Seventh Agency was established with the aiding of Yūki Terumi. The main goal of Seventh Agency is to control Magic Formula through science. They view them as powerful, unstable and dangerous tools. They believe that a tool that can’t be controlled by people is incomplete, and that as long as it remains so, they will be at the mercy of mages. In order to complete their own version of Magic Formula, they need to study and utilize the Blue Grimoire that Ragna the Bloodedge possesses. Another of their goals, in case the main one fails, is complete obliteration of magic element.

One time, when word went out that the World Void Information Controlling Organization has discovered and excavated the Arch-Enemy, Machine God: Nirvana, which was buried under the 4th Hierarchical City “Naobi”, and that it is meant to be transported to the Controlling Organization’s headquarters. The Seventh Agency sent a mercenary troop to retrieve it before it is transported. They successfully claimed Nirvana, but the troop was mostly annihilated by Azrael, with their commander as the only survivor and in critical condition. The events in Naobi were eventually came to be known as the Event Weapon Dispossession Operation.

In the short story That which is inherited, Relius Clover came to ask Kokonoe for help in an experiment pertaining to creation of an Arch-Enemy Event Weapon, offering in exchange a Dimensional Boundary Contact Prime Field. Kokonoe originally declined the offer until Relius implied that the method of smelting the Arch-Enemy is a bit different than what she thinks it is, and that the truth will be clear when she herself witnesses it. Later on, the word go out that Controlling Organization has discovered and excavated the Arch-Enemy, Nirvana which was buried under the 4th Hierarchical City “Naobi”, and that it is meant to be transported to the Controlling Organization’s HQ. Seventh Agency sent a mercenary troop and Azrael to retrieve it from Naobi before it is transported. They successfully claimed Nirvana, but the troop was mostly annihilated by Azrael, with their commander as the only survivor and in critical condition. At this point Relius was awaiting in the laboratory and had started analyzing the Arch-Enemy right away, stating that it was missing its core. Over a month of being missing, Relius returned and started his experiment with Kokonoe before the opened Kiln, bringing along the Dimensional Boundary Contact Prime Field, as well Ignis and Nirvana, then equipped with Kokonoe’s mechanical powertrains, which were prototypes of the Event Weapon Imitation. The events in Naobi were eventually came to be known as the Event Weapon Dispossession Operation.

During the experiment, the Controlling Organization’s Imperial Guards attacked, and TR-0009 Tager was sent to intercept them. Suddenly, the Black Beast appeared from the Kiln, and using its “Soul Eater”, it began to absorb souls, starting with those belonging to the Controlling Organization soldiers. Relius then revealed that the Black Beast is the core of the Arch-Enemy, and that Nine created a Black Beast to defeat another. In order to save Tager and everyone else, Kokonoe was forced to use her mother’s spell, the Infinite Gravity, which compressed the Black Beast to the size of an apple (while seemingly simultaneously Nu grew a soul then), leaving her tired out. Relius then ordered Ignis to retrieve the black sphere, as it was meant to be her soul. Kokonoe then, presumably by magic (though Relius was wondering if it wasn’t an Intervention), managed to move Nirvana and successfully landed a hit on Clover, after which she collapsed. After this event, Relius, Ignis and Nirvana couldn’t be found along with the black sphere, the 13th Prime Field was believed to have been taken by Controlling Organization, and the 11th and the 12th Prime Fields were found in Relius’ lab and sent to the 5th Hierarchical City “Ibukido”. Tager managed to survive his encounter with the Black Beast, but some of his memories were damaged, effectively erasing all his memories of the event and his previous life.
