Web Novel
Kai is a quiet person, she only responds to orders from her superiors with short sentences or only responds with nods. She behaved like that not because she was disobedient to her superiors, but because she was a social phobic person.

She has great anxiety and fear when interacting with other people. This was proven when he was ordered directly by Shadow, Kai responded with her body shaking in fear. However, Shadow immediately overcomes this by having a relaxed conversation containing advice for her.

Background
Like the other girls descended from the heroes, Kai had contracted demonic possession and was discarded and abandoned by society until she was forgotten. She was found and rescued by members of Shadow Garden sleeping alone in a trash at the end of the alley, malnourished with the curse spreading over her body. Shadow Garden cured her, elaborating the truth, earning her loyalty and subsequently recruited her into the organization, being among the earliest recruited when Shadow Garden began their membership expansion.

At some point later, she rose through the ranks to become one of Shadow Garden's double-digit Numbers because her ability and strength are recognized by the Seven Shadows, to which she earn a "Named" Rank no. 22 and becoming Named Numbers when she would identify herself as Kai. Also, Kai established a strong and direct relationship with Epsilon, one of the original Seven Shadows, and worked together with Omega to become Epsilon's direct subordinates.

Sanctuary Infiltration
As the "Goddess's Trial" commenced in Lindwurm, Shadow Garden prepared for an infiltration mission, and Kai was present in the city. When Shadow suddenly made himself known to summon the memory of Aurora and concluding their battle with the result of Aurora's defeat along with the opening gate to Sanctuary at the same time, Kai was among the Shadow Garden contingent that followed Alpha, Delta, and Epsilon into the Sanctuary. Before entering the Sanctuary, Kai joined Omega by Epsilon's side as they taking Natsume Kafka a "hostage" and entering the Sanctuary, along with the Acting Archbishop Jack Nelson.

Inside, Kai and Omega followed Epsilon with a unit of Numbers to collect and gather all intelligence from the memory world they found within the Sanctuary, confirming some theories on the Cult's origins, learning new details, and understanding their motives much better. While the Slime Bodysuits were malfunctioning due to proximity to the core, Kai and Omega apparently imagined that Epsilon's (fake) breasts fell off and reattached, but when Epsilon was looking at them, they said nothing.

As their investigation mission are complete along with the information they collect from the Sanctuary, Alpha ordered all Numbers to leave which Kai complied and following her order to leave the Sanctuary, leaving Acting Archbishop Nelson to battle Shadow. Then, Shadow Garden's team was outside and Kai saw Shadow erased the Sanctuary using his "Atomic" spell. With the city flooded by the Sanctuary's destruction, Kai and Omega helped escorting Alpha and Epsilon out of Lindwurm with the intelligence they collected.

Trivia

 * According to the director's tweet about Kai's illustration, the symbol to represent her name is χ, which is the 22nd letter of the Greek alphabet. In fact, the very first sentence from the Wikipedia page for the letter is already explains how to pronounced it.
 * Despite being women, Kai and Omega like to dress up as men occasionally. According to the two, this is so they can have other means of information gathering, unlike other Shadow Garden members. Although sometimes, they crossdress their clothes for fun.
 * Originally, according to some words from the author, when he was writing the characters of Kai and Omega, he had thought of making them the only men in Shadow Garden. But the idea was discarded, seeing the strong controversy that would arise with the story developing in the community. This is why the characters wear men's clothing, reflecting in some part of the author's discarded ideas.
 * Erroneously at the beginning, Kai and Omega were mistranslated as men in the Web Novel, before the anime premiered, which caused strong controversy in the Latin American and partly North American community when it was announced that all possible characters would be taken from the 3 versions of the story: the Manga, Web Novel, and Light Novel. But that would follow the Light Novel story route to which those translated were not fully corrected, until the full release of the anime and the game release.
