Riezel had never considered himself a good person.
Though he would lend a hand within his means and offer some help to those suffering, if it was beyond his ability, he would not risk his life for people unrelated to him.
If it was necessary to stand by and watch someone die, Riezel would not suddenly be overcome with saintly compassion and throw himself in recklessly, harming himself or those around him.
Simply put, he was compassionate, but not excessively empathetic. Even if innocent people died tragically before his eyes, he would not melodramatically consider it his responsibility, believe their tragedy had happened because he had failed to act, then blame himself and feel guilty over it.
Thus, he could help others in matters he considered trivial, such as aiding the refugees of Maypros Territory, while also turning a blind eye to death and refusing to intervene, like with Yaga Masamichi and that infected knight once contaminated by the Abyss Aura.
In other words, he had his own judgment and considerations. Whether he acted or not was not driven by emotion, but more often by rational consideration.
Therefore, Riezel had never stood on the moral high ground for no reason and condemned the villains he had encountered. At most, when something struck a nerve, he would mock or ridicule them, gaining a little verbal advantage.
Under such circumstances, Riezel rarely displayed such blatant disgust toward someone or a group of people.
Because he knew perfectly well that he had neither the standing nor the right.

Riezel had encountered many evil people.
