Operation Strix

Operation "Strix" (オペレーション〈〉) is "Twilight"'s current assignment as a spy for Westalian Intelligence. The goal of the mission is to maintain peaceful relations between Westalis and Ostania.

Summary
After completing his previous assignment, "Twilight" is tasked with Operation Strix. His orders are to stop Donovan Desmond, the leader of the National Unity Party, from harming truce efforts between the Ostanian and Westalian governments by getting close to him and probing for any seditious activities. However, since Donovan's only public appearances are at private events held by the prestigious Eden Academy, Twilight must marry and have a child who can enroll at the school.

To this end, "Twilight" takes on the alias of "Loid Forger," securing himself an apartment in Berlint, Ostania, and adopts Anya Forger from a rundown orphanage with little paperwork. After Anya passes Eden's admission exam, he receives a letter saying both parents will need to be present for a family interview. At a tailor shop, Loid and Yor encounter each other and decide to form a partnership out of convenience, and later agree to marry to protect their secret identities.

After Yor joins the family, they prepare for the Eden Academy interview. On the day of the interview, the Forgers make a great impression on housemaster Henry Henderson, who lends a hand in getting Anya into the school. After Anya is successfully enrolled, Loid meets with his Handler, Slyvia Sherwood, who briefs him on further orders on Operation Strix. Loid is instructed to ensure Anya becomes an Imperial Scholar by earning eight merits called Stella Stars. Seeing Anya's intellect, Loid creates a Plan B: Anya will become friends with Damian Desmond, Donovan's second son, which will eventually lead to Loid making contact with Donovan. Loid's "Friendship Scheme" does not go well at first, with Anya punching Damian in the face on her first day of school. From there on, Loid tries to help Anya earn Stella Stars.

When Yor encounters Melinda Desmond and has the chance to get close with her, Loid devises a Plan C: The Mommy-Friends Scheme, which is along the same vein as Plan B.
