He understands this, but lives with it, and finds that he cannot understand how the minds of these spiders work, who can apparently fight and kill without feeling anything. This results in a complete lack of empathy for the guy he just killed. He didn't enjoy his little killing spree, but it did bring him closer to his goal.

In the fourth episode, Kurapika mentions that his goal is to only "capture" and imprison the Phantom Troupe. If you recall, in the previous episode, Leorio explicitly had a line that said "Maybe he's already captured a couple!"
No one expected Kurapika to murder Uvogin, but that's how deep his rage is felt. He didn't kill reluctantly...he
tortured and killed a man, then buried his body in the desert. There's nothing pure or innocent about it.
