As for his alignment, he is pretty much a neutral person. Besides working as a hero, he would sometimes gets along with an enemy that he likes such as the Summoner, whom someone he had an affection with. He admitted himself that he is beyond good and evil, and cannot comprehend between the right or wrong, and believes that he's just doing what he thinks is the right thing to do.
