I think Hiruma might be a bastard.

And illegitimate, too. (Sorry, couldn't resist.) In fact, I think he's the child of someone high up in whatever his walk of life is, possibly even someone known colloquialy as God ("Devils don't ask favors of God.").

It would explain why, in a story that takes some trouble to include parents and homelives, we see /nothing/ of his; the way his father seems to be pleased with him but knows Hiruma won't want to hear it; Hiruma's choice to engage, not just in deliquency, but actual criminal activity; the way he's parallelled with Kid; the amount of ready cash and capital he always has; and possibly even his taste for blackmail--maybe he learned that tactic first with dear old dad.

If this is the case, I expect his mother is either dead or very embittered.

I have hopes we will find out one way or another, eventually.
