To wake up to justice

From Devil May Cry (a video game).
Two millenniums ago, there was a war between the human world and the other, the underworld.
But somebody from the underworld woke up to justice and stood up against this legion alone.

Doesn't it sounds a bit awkward? The point is that he believed in justice, right? But justice doesn't seem to be a right word.
And what do you think about 'this legion'. is it OK? Because I don't like it either.
Hope I'm wrong.

Sorry, I hate this, but I should ask. It still bugs me. Does he became aware of the concept of justice (i.e he realized that everyone should receive what they deserve and treat others fairly), or something else? I just want to get it straight.
