Iron Mask (CV: Yuichi Nakamura) is a Devil Summoner who belongs to the Phantom Society and serves as the leader of the “C” project. He is known for his ruthlessness, and few within the Phantom Society have ever seen his face.
Zenon (CV: Kazuyuki Okitsu) is an artificial demon who was created by Iron Mask. However, despite his artificial creation he is still categorized as a devil. While Zenon is excellent at fighting, he lacks intelligence. At the command of Iron Mask, he kills Ichiro Onda and steals his Covenant.
Ichiro Onda (CV: Kentaro Ito) was a world-famous computer engineer before he was murdered by Iron Mask and Zenon. However, before his death he managed to complete the program known as the “Vanishing System.” He was previously a holder of a Covenant.
