Agitate Halation Project

The project was created based on Hypothesized Catastrophe 034: Concerning Damages Caused by the Sudden and Coincidental Appearance of Heroes and a Countermeasure against Them Using a Likely Level 0.

The Level 0 chosen by Yakumi Hisako was Fremea Seivelun.

The project itself was created by the Academy City Board of Directors for use against Kamijou Touma and his allies should they ever rebel against Academy City, as they would pose a security risk.

Resume
This is the information that Touma obtained regarding the project from the Hypothesized Catastrophe 034:

 Uncertain elements referring to themselves as heroes pose a threat to the development of the advanced technology that lies at the core of Academy City. Locating a certain weak individual can solve this problem. It has been statistically proven that an immature girl is most likely to fill the role.

This individual shall be henceforth referred to as the protection target.

This project aims to artificially create a protection target so that the unpredictable heroes will swiftly eliminate each other with a minimum of sacrifices.

Killing a hero with standard means is difficult. They possess a unique ability to suddenly reverse situations where they have an overwhelming disadvantage. However, that ability cannot help them in a conflict between two heroes.

This is not simply a plan to send the heroes against each other to eliminate themselves.

The energy caused by their collision will not always be cleanly cancelled out. It is possible it will instead influence yet another hero.

This can be visualized like a game of billiards.

If the countless heroes are the balls, then the protection target is the cue that strikes the balls. The initial strike can lead to a happy ending, but it can also lead to unavoidable self-destruction.

The balls are already in place. What matters is the cue, the protection target.

A protection target will occasionally appear from within the ranks of the powerful, but statistically they appear overwhelmingly more often from within the weak. An individual who will function as a cue will be chosen from among the Level 0s. This individual must be remade into a spokesperson who will give his or her own opinions as a representative example of all of the weak.

The backup plan using Skill Out, the primary plan using the Freshmen, and the secondary plan using Kakine Teitoku all progressed well. The artificially-created weak individual was confirmed to fill the position of the cornerstone to resolving each of these plans. Details can be found in the corresponding documents.

If “she” is now captured and given a simple card problem that relates to the desired heroes, she will become the cue that hits the balls across the table as we wish.

The protection target’s brain must be destroyed so that she holds no questions about solving the simple problems given. She simply needs the same level of intelligence as a dove so that she can solve the quiz in exchange for food.

Once the project is complete, we can send any and all heroes to defeat each other at the press of a button. With no burden on our part, we can eliminate them to create a world without heroes.

 Fremea Seivelun. Once this artificial protection target has been harvested, this project will be complete.

Objectives
Because heroes act unpredictably and also are able to overcome adversity, especially if they are at a disadvantage, the Project seeks a countermeasure that could not only remove those heroes but also avoid excessive losses, repercussions or vendettas.

Controversy
Not all members of Academy City Board of Directors approve of the project, as evident in the confrontation between Yakumi Hisako and Kaizumi Tsugutoshi.

Agitate Halation Arc

 * Main article: Agitate Halation Arc

The project used Fremea's ability, Agitate Halation by somehow controlling the miniature Kakine Teitoku (Beetle 05) she had strapped to her phone, telling her she was in danger and making her leave the safety of her dorm room in a supposed attempt "to flee to safety". This was the activation of her ability that began calling "heroes", to an affect that almost immediately she ran across Kuroyoru Umidori who was fleeing the trap Yakumi Hisako had set for her to use as Fremea's killer. Her appearance here dubs her as a "dark hero" called through Agitate Halation's power according to Rensa who also appeared to take and kill Fremea. Fremea flees as Kuroyoru does battle with Rensa continuing to follow the White Beetle's false instructions to head towards the Learning Core and then into The Lightning Rod  tower.

By this point Agitate Halation was causing 7500 "heroes" run through the streets causing chaos as they went forth to help Fremea, by stealing objects that could be used as weapons and attacking their owners justifying their acts of "heroism" and also by fighting among themselves as each one believed himself the "true hero" that would save Fremea. Eventually they converging on the Learning Core and started causing a riot there, which caused fires and left their workers in panic. The riot would eventually be subdued when all the Level 5 Espers bar #6 would appear to stop the senseless battle for their own respective reasons.

It was presumably brought to an end when Fremea formed the resolve that she was not going to just hope a hero will appear anymore and decided to stand against those who used her, as such demonstration of courage breaks the set paradigm that she is the "representative of all the weak", therefore causing a massive contradiction that makes the project plummet. This also results in Hisako's ability to trascend to a higher level of existance similar to Dragon as she had planned.

Aftermath
Yakumi Hisako, while not destroyed, remained in a digital form, that was eventually found by Fräulein Kreutune and mostly devoured by her. Members of the Kihara Family Kihara Noukan and Kihara Yuiitsu evaluate the results of the project and conclude there could have been factors not considered or initially seen by Hisako.
