The Cult of Science (科学崇拝, Kagaku Suuhai^?, lit. "Science Worship") is a small and bizarre cult that was formed inside Academy City, belonging to neither magic side nor the science side of the Index universe and apparently is bent on investigating as much as possible about supernatural forces regardless of what side they belong to.

BackgroundEdit

They have shown absolutely no true knowledge about either "Magic" or "Espers", nor even "Hard Science". Due to their lack of knowledge, they are sometimes treated with mockery by those who truly hold a grasp of the powers they pursue.^[1]
