Why no companion?

The fact that he does not have a companion is, because it would restrict him in his actions.

Imagine sneaking into a castle. He as a ranger (Rogue-ish) can easily sneak past most guards or take them out quietly. If he had a companion like a knight, he would have to bother with the noise said knight's armnor made. (Which is Loud if you've ever worn it IRL. (>w0)/

If he had a mage with him he would have to account for clumsiness. (Well, also with the knight, but with the knight the armor-sounds are worse.) A rogue knows not to touch weird buttons or to avoid the suspicious cord set up on the floor. A mage though would not notice this and set off any traps or alarms making stealth a no-go.

Furthermore, the rangers are not a goodwilling organization. Instead of helping the Order or the DemonLord they work to keep the war going. Slowing down the radical monsters while keeping up the Order's steady supply of soon-to-be-husbands to the monster-lands. Thus if he would try to kill a certain criminal, murderer or plain innocent, he would have to deal with his partner possibly disagreeing to his choice, which is the worst possible case you can have for an assassination.

Why no pet?

Again that comes down to adaptability. Sometimes he has to infiltrate a castle full of hostiles. The sound of a wolf's nails on stone is sneaking-wise pretty dang loud. On other cases when needing to climb a wall to get to an elevated position, what the hell do you do with the pet. Leave it there and possibly have it discovered or do you make the horribly troublesome and slowing work of finding an alternative route?

More stories involving the DemonLord?

This is the same case why I don't write any of the Fallen Maidens into my stories. Those characters all have their own page and thus an already set out personality. This is limiting to what you can do with them in a story. As for involvement, I personally can't stand reading in other people's fanfics how the main character gets 'very friendy' with such a Canon-character, so I try not to irritate others by doing the same.

Take for example http://monstergirlencyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Flodoomable/6:_The_Levarage#. In this story the DemonLord hands Florandus his own ass 'in manner of speach' in a duel after which she then helps him save his family. At the end she even goes as far as to cuddle him on his bed after his awakening. Not everyone would like to see a writer write how his/her character gets pampered by the DemonLord herself, since with a 100+ children, why on earth would she cuddle or even care for a random male that is in her massively huge family tree just because her daughter marrying said male's mother.

I can do more stories involving her, but due to her having to lead an empire of monsters she would always play a background role.
