Even if he does have the mindset of not harming innocents, his priority of keeping Nazarick NPCs safe outweighs everything else. Even if he does find himself in sticky situations from time to time because of how contradictory his actions and NPCs' actions can be, he would always try to talk his way out rather than order them around. Letting the NPCs learn self preservation is biting him hard in this case but he would rather sacrifice the world for Nazarick's safety.

This train of thought is most prominent after the Blood Valkyrie incident. He's not going to put a solid stop to Demiurge's plans any time soon until he eliminates the culprits that brainwashed Shalltear. He may alter certain prospects like how he set the orphanage plans in action but even then I doubt he would bat an eyelash (not that he has any) if he would need to sacrifice any orphan in there just to keep a minor Nazarick NPC safe.
