Izumi Kai (Archibald Enzo)
Phantom 03, Kai is a quiet and reserved young adult who rarely speaks. He has friends, but few female friends are interested in him.

He changed his name to Archibald Enzo, also known as Arc, after the incident at The Saint's Cradle. partly to avoid being a scapegoat for an imposter. After Lost Property Riot Force 6 (Riot Force 6) disbanded, he remained with The Time-Space Administrative Bureau(TSAB)under Commander Yagami Hayate, by order of Admiral Chrono Harlaown. His
rank changed to 'Specialist 2nd Lieutenant' under his new name, and his mage rank is AAA (Air).
