The entire point of Loki’s arc in this show is that he didn’t want to be a villain.
To be fair, he never actually has wanted to be a villain, but that’s how he’s been cast and treated by his family, Thor’s friends, Asgard, the Avengers, etc.
He actively wanted to choose to be something else. To prove that he is something else. Kid Loki stated it outright: “Whenever any of us tries to change, we end up here” in the Void, pruned from the timeline.
It may suit Kang’s purposes to have Loki be the villain, but it never suited Loki’s purpose, glorious or otherwise.
