I don't believe he is Chaos at the start, but rather is destined to become Chaos due to the fiends pulling him back after his defeat. If he just needed to die in order to fulfill his role and be pulled back, he probably would just off himself without giving the Light Warriors free experience, the Lute, the king's respect, and the bridge they need to begin their adventure.
