Ssulal can't be the worst Demon King because her name isn't Avel.

Before Chaos and Nikkou were created, the only things that could pierce the IF and potentially harm the Demon King were gods and Escude. And Escude has its own set of enormous drawbacks that make it circumstantial at best.

Kkulf Kkulf was significantly stronger than every Demon King that followed him, but he still ended up dying just through sustaining a lot of damage over time. Ssulal was apparently unusually weak by Demon King standards, so it's not hard to believe that she was made paranoid precisely because people kept coming to kill her and gradually weakening her power.

Without the IF, Demon Kings like Nighcisa likely wouldn't have been able to be nearly as terrifying as he was, as he'd have been forced to be more cautious about attacking humans and risking getting hurt. And if Ludo got bored with that cautiousness, then Nighcisa'd be wiped out in an instant regardless of how much time he was allowed to reign for.

Ssulal may not have done much in her reign, but she made it so that her successors had the freedom to accomplish a lot more.
