Messiah is not about the credit. At least not in Touma's case.
He wants to be the one who fight the bloody battle, be the one who shoulders the other's burden, and end up saving the day.
You say he respect other's decision? Have you forget he undermines Mikoto's hard work to to become his comrade all the time? Remember he never once respected her hard work and still stubbornly believe she should night fight? He is so fixated on himself being the one who shoulders other's pain and refuse to recognize the other can do the same. This is messiah complex at its finest.

And that's not the point?
The point is he does not ask for help when he should? Instead of relying on plot armor?
You know that's the only reason he didn't bleed to death this volume right?
And he often gets away with having no consequences?
St. Germain is like the only consequences he had from refusing to accept help. And I am not sure if he learned any lesson from it.
