Synopsis
The Aztec organization infiltrated to the point where they are right next to a Director, all for the sake of eliminating Quetzal.

Kinuhata Saiai carries around emergency nitrogen supplies in case her opponents create a vacuum around her to prevent her using her powers.

The Aztec organization has gone to the point where they modify all ‘normal’ agents to all carry around a ‘original’ grimoire for battle purposes, and it can’t be destroyed by Quetzal’s obsidian knife. The leader of the Aztec organization, Tecpatl, even came himself to eliminate Quetzal (I’m not gonna attempt to spell Aztec names…). The leader and Quetzal battle, and Quetzal manages to make the grimoire turn onto its owner – grimoires have a ‘mind’ of its own and seeks out those who can use them to the fullest, and the leader set up measures to make sure his mind is safe from the dangers all grimoire possess, where the information is too much for the human brain to handle. Therefore Quetzal signaled he’ll take on the burden of the opposing grimoire, and let its knowledge flow through him regardless of the cost, and the grimoire destroyed the leader after deeming him not fit to possess a grimoire.

The ENTIRE dark side of Academy City (minus GROUP) knows about Kamijou Touma and his worth to Aleister, including how no matter what kind of mess Touma causes within Academy City it’s all within Aleister’s margin of error, and Touma’s under Aleister’s personal protection. It’s also known Accelerator have something to do with Aleister’s plans, though Accelerator doesn’t have the protection like Touma. Hamazura Shiage however is an unknown factor which not even Aleister can predict, since according to the plans was Shiage was supposed to have died in vol 15 in the fighting between ITEM, BLOCK, SCHOOL, GROUP and SCHOOL, but he beat Mugino and survived, something Aleister cannot comprehend. Therefore the entire Dark side of Academy city has got the order of eliminating Shiage directly from General Superintendent Aleister, and the whole city is out to attack Shiage.

Shiage was about to be killed before Mugino intervened, saying she’s the only one allowed to kill him and wiped out the pursuers (which were ex-Hound Dog members).

The director that was after GROUP was defeated, and he said unfortunately he does know the truth about DRAGON, and it might have been better if he didn’t know in the first place. When the 4 of them asked him what is DRAGON, he replied “DRAGON is everywhere. Look, right now it’s behind you”. They thought it was a bad joke, but Motoharu, Awaki and Unabara got knocked out instantly, leaving Accelerator to think that’s impossible, the three of them aren’t that easy to dispatch. The director exclaimed the one behind them that did this wasn’t FUSE=Kazakiri like he thought, before being knocked out as well, with a voice somewhere saying of course not – she’s only a piece for DRAGON’s materialization. Accelerator saw ‘it’ speak, but to him there’s nothing seem more wrong than ‘it’ being able to act like a human. ‘It’ had long blonde hair, a slim figure and flowing robes that made it look like a girl. Its face seemed to show all sorts of emotion all at once, but also seemed beyond emotions. It also remarked itself can also be called a ‘angel’, or at least sounds closer to the truth than a ‘extraterrestrial intelligent being’, ‘holy guardian angel’, or ‘the true master of the secrets that shaped modern western magics’, and says he/she’s very different than the angels in the bible. And finally “there are few that reach this point. And it’s because so I’m interested in this, and that there’s value in stating my name… I’m the one who once taught the bare essentials of the necessary knowledge to the eccentric magician Aleister Crowley.”
