Kanet decides to become a shion
 
"Aren't we friends?"

Ok, so there may be some kind of risk to being a shion, though I am not sure what risk. What so bad about submitting? You give over your soul or something when you do, but what does that mean? 
Seems like there is some risk traveling with him and NOT being a shion. And how come they go separate ways, he already got his revenge.
 
But more importantly, why is he questioning their friendship for even a moment? If there is risk, its his friends to take, so why does that put their friendship in doubt?
 
"You bastard!!"

What is he so upset about? Because some unnamed bad guys got killed? It was his friends important revenge, one that he already knew about well ahead of time and never questioned it.
 
He didn't seem to mind much when some random citizens got murdered.

Sure he's been ripping the MC and company off left and right this whole time, but he had fun while he did it, so he's OK, "good person". 
And never mind the random citizens he murdered in cold blood by turning them into inanimate objects, it was their fault for wanting money falling from the sky.
 
So to recap,
  • Becoming a shion and killing murderous thieves is bad, tragic even.
  • Ripping someone off constantly and killing people at random is all in good fun.
