He is arrogant... he is the most powerful being in the league and he knows it.

So he is cocky by nature but it's also his downfall, he thinks he is above everyone else and thus no one is worth his time but this causes him to make mistakes which in turn creates a weakness... the only reason he is bound to serve targon is because he was arrogant enough to accept the crown and was showing off which proved his downfall.

It's quite a common trope in this situation... if you have an all powerful God having to fight mortals and the mortals are gonna be the ones who are victorious you've got to give the God their own kryptonite in order to create a weakness and make the victory look believable... a common one is to make the God's ego massive which causes him to underestimate his opponents as he thinks he is immortal and immune to them. That's why aurelion sol is so pretentious, so that he can be realistically bested by lesser beings.
