Personality; Hizumi is something akin to a performer. With a bright and cheerful outward personality, he has the effect of drawing people to him. He gives off the feeling of someone who wears their heart on their sleeve; one moment he can be exuberant due to a pleasant surprise, only to go into a sulk when things suddenly stop going his way. And yet, he always seems to recover phenomenally quickly, giving the impression of one who has very simple likes and dislikes who never really dwells on things for long. It’s the type of basic honesty that makes him appear completely harmless to those around him.
It’s also not very honest at all.
Although Hizumi is the devil of his world (or, more precisely, a clone of the original devil and expected to take up the same role), he doesn’t really mean any particular harm through this deceit. He acts cheerful and happy because it’s better than giving into his true feelings – namely, the utter despair knowing that his time is short and his hands may as well be tied. He was once told his fate would be to turn into a horrible devil who would seek to wipe out humanity; after pouring all of his effort into finding a way to avoid such a fate, he only discovered that the cloning process was imperfect and he would die before he came of age anyway. Due to his devil’s blood, he couldn’t even kill himself to end it quickly – he claims to have “experimented” with it around fifteen to sixteen times, and each attempt led to a narrow survival by luck that was nothing short of a miracle. He is very much aware his existence is more or less pointless, and with no one else on his level who could possibly understand his feelings of helplessness, he wants only to end it as soon as he can.
However, more recently, these feelings have become complicated. There was one other who was in much the same position as him, having been cloned from God. As it was, this boy was also the only one in the world who could kill him, and Hizumi would never be able to raise a hand against him. Hizumi considered this boy, Ayumu Narumi, to be his very last hope – either by ending his suffering, or becoming his one and only friend, able to understand the full weight of their unique situations. Although they met only briefly, it’s enough to prove just how easily they are able to interact with each other right off the bat. It is because of this that Hizumi acts most warmly around Ayumu alone, though he certainly won’t just snub others for no particular reason. He just finds it impossible to form any real empathy for ordinary folks due to his rather bizarre situation, which is why, despite his overall friendliness, he may seem somewhat distant at times.
In general, he does have a certain amount of confidence in his skills. The original devil was mightily talented at anything he tried, and as his clone, Hizumi has inherited that vast ability. Unfortunately, his failure to do anything worthwhile with those skills has caused him to give up on trying to do much of anything with them at all. He may lend his skill to a basketball team if he’s promised dinner out in return for a win, but he’s hardly about to pursue anything world-changing. He simply sees no point in it after his initial failure.
This is in part due to how utter that first failure was. As a child, he grew up talented and loved by everyone. Life may as well have been handed to him on a silver plate. Even when he learned he was supposed to be a devious figure, his first thought wasn’t of fear. Instead, he took it as his first true challenge, and hoped not only to prevent his own transformation into this terrible fiend, but to find a way to save those who also suffered from the devil’s blood – namely, those referred to as the Blade Children. He wanted to defy his fate and become a hero instead. Rather than evil, he wanted to do good… but the blow caused by his inability to do anything crushed his motivation to ever try very hard again. As far as he is concerned, there is absolutely no hope for himself or the Blade Children, and he sincerely doesn’t care if he is killed or finds the friendship he so longed for. Either one counts as a win to him, and he is so desperately seeking a conclusion to this that he could well be driven to murder if it would help speed the process.
However, let it not be said that he’s a cold hearted killer by any stretch of the imagination. Though he has staked out a potential victim, his justifications paint a very different picture – his target is none other than the most dangerous of the Blade Children, Kanone Hilbert, known for skillfully killing a vast number of people. Much like Hizumi, Kanone had all but given up on survival, coming to the conclusion that none could be saved and that death was preferable. With these in mind, Hizumi seeks to mitigate the weight of murder, reasoning that if Kanone desired to die, killing him – even if it was in order to further Hizumi’s own plans – would somehow be more acceptable. He understands that becoming a murderer is not something one does lightly, but currently, he’s been pushed into such a corner that he’s desperate enough to do it if it means getting out. The fact that he tries so hard to justify an action he clearly knows is wrong speaks multitudes about his true attitude towards it all.
He is highly intelligent; by the age of thirteen he had gotten into a prestigious college in the US and majored in genetics. His knowledge deals specifically with cloning, having chosen the field after finding out he himself was one of the very first examples of a human clone. He may act simple, but in truth he is a fairly analytical individual. He weighs his options carefully and, should he feel it necessary, adjusts his own actions to achieve whatever objective he may have. Manipulating people based on what he knows of their personalities and behavior is something that comes easily to him, though he may not necessarily do it out of any real malice. He’s good at getting reads on people, so getting them to move in whatever way benefits him the most is what comes most naturally.
