Hiruko

Hiruko is a highly respected demon, serving as the vessel of despair.

Genesis
Hiruko walks through the woods and ponders over the different kind of relationships between species. Afterwards, he coincidentally runs into Lilith, who has been abandoned by Adam. In order to cheer her up, he talks to her and eventually convinces her to eat a rotten fruit by eating one himself. At the time, he is unaware the two fruits they had eaten were contaminated by the moths of hope and despair. After returning home, he tells Hikari and Lucifer of Lilith. Encouraging to treat her kindly, Lucifer dismissed himself, leaving Hikari to warn Hiruko to come home earlier for Lucifer's sake.

The next morning, Hiruko leaves again into the woods for Lilith, only to find her undressed in a pond and assumes she is bathing. After scolding him for watching her naked, Lilith reveals she was trying to fish. Shocked by her ignorance, Hiruko offers to bring her to his home and teach her how to fish with a pole.
