Short Answer:
So, remember how it is a literally universal agreement here that Lucifer = Lucemon? Lucifer is a mere discarded fragment of YHVH which is played by him like a fiddle. Lucemon loses.
Long Answer:
So, let's talk powerscaling for a bit.
First we have Kagutsuchi who maintains a multiverse with
infinite universes,
of which billions are created every second, and every universe has an infinite cycle of birth, death, and rebirth; rinse repeat. Furthermore,
Kagutsuchi maintains the Universe's Sangai, which is a Buddhist concept for the three aspects of time - Past, present and future.
So he is simultaneously in all points of time maintaining the existence of infinite universes, each of which have infinite iterations due to their cycle of conception.
Also, in the Vortex Worlds which is where the conception occurs, the "Demon World" and "God World" which exist in parallel to the real world,
are merged with it.
If you are keeping count. That is (infinite universes * 3 ) * infinite iterations of each of these.
And what happens when the Demi-Fiend kills Kagutsuchi?
The multiverse, alongside the very concept of time, freaking dies.
Other Avatars which should be at least comparable to Kagutsuchi are Elohim, Shaddai, Sabaoth, and the Ancient of Days.
Then there is Metatron, who is in the same game recognized as explicitly above Kagutsuchi, as it is
"The strongest warrior of light".
And its mere voice is compared to the Amala Universe, which is the infinite multiverse that Kagutsuchi maintains.
This same Metatron is held up as pathetic by the Demiurge, another Avatar of YHVH. To the point where Metatron is described as YHVH's mind and the Demiurge as YHVH's power in the same game.
Which brings me to the Mother Goddesses, which sealed Metatron and Demiurge in the first place after YHVH was split.
The Mother Goddesses include Ouroboros Maia, Tiamat, Maya, Kali Ma, Anahita & Maria (I think), and potentially Amaterasu and Mother Harlot.
Of this it is worth pointing out that Mother Harlot is generally considered to be the most powerful of the Fiends. Who are Lucifer's enforcers.
And Ouroboros, the first Mother you fight in the game, is the embodiment of Infinity & Eternity, making it a Kagutsuchi-level entity.
All the Mothers are aspects of Mem Aleph, the Primordial and Archetypal Earth Mother Goddess.
Why is all of this important. Well, after you defeat the Demiurge in Strange Journey, if you are allied with Law it will
absorb Metatro, and will claim it regained a portion of the Creator's power and it won't be long til it returns to its "True Form, full of Light"...
But if you are allied with Chaos, a Female Voice (Almost undobtedly Mem Aleph) intervenes and
seals this empowered Demiurge casually.
This same Mem Aleph, btw, is comparable to the Shekinah, another Avatar of YHVH. Namely, its female aspect.
Lucifer is more powerful than Mem Aleph, as it is outright stated to be the "Strongest power of Darkness", and the Embodiment of all Chaos, and Mem Aleph is a Chaos-aligned deity. However,
Lucifer outright states that he is nothing but an aspect of YHVH as well.
He also dismisses the Demiurge as worthless,
"a mere Godly Spirit".
Indeed, if Lucifer is the Embodiment of all Chaos, then YHVH is the Embodiment of all Law:
God says, "I am Alpha and Omega." This is the beginning and end, in other words, everything in the world is God's work. Lucifer, the king of the dark, embodies all of the dark side of the world. If creation is the work of God, destruction is the work of Lucifer. The two may be related to each other like personas. So the concept was an intellectual-looking child seeing from the beginning to the end (the future), an old man who views the present in a considerate manner, and, depending on the player's choice, a sinister demon.
In the game he is there to tempt the player and give him trials to test him. I previously called him the king of the dark, but that was just to make explaining him simpler. In the world of the Megaten series, I don't consider him as evil; he is just a character that tests the player. So visually I portrayed him as elegant and gentleman-like.
According to one theory Lucifer is said to look like a beautiful angel with 12 wings, but in this game he is portrayed as demonic with 6 wings. This is the style I picked to represent the dark side. In Megaten 1 and 2, he appears as an angel with 6 wings, so combining them you'll get 12 wings. Throughout the series, he has appeared as a child, and old man, a gentleman, an angel and a demon. This is to show that he is omnipotent. I believe there will be a time when he will reveal his true form, a combination of all his other forms, to the player.

In fact, everything is a part of YHVH, as all Creation is a manifestation of the Creator.
Here's a transcript of a scene from SMT II (Couldn't find it on Youtube):
Zayin: Why...me...To save the people...to save as many as possible...isn't this what God wanted...? Where...is God? Is he nowhere to be found...? Or is this...his will...? The center abandoned those that believed in God and worked for his sake...the Elders...Did God choose them...and abandon me...? God...
Voice: There is no God!
Zayin: !? Who's there!?
Voice: If God will not interfere no matter what happens to you, then God will not interfere no matter what you do, either.
Zayin: !?
Voice: Don't force yourself to obey. Were you not born in the name of God?
Zayin: ...Well...
Voice: By definition, is not whatever you do God's will?
Zayin: ...Whatever I do...
Voice: Do not try to obey something. Do not try to obey someone. Do not think of God as having just one face. God is not good. God is everything. Everything is God. You too can become a face of God.
Zayin: Become...a face of God...
Voice: You are not one to be judged and punished. You are the ultimate Temple Knight. As the one closest to God, obey his commands and become the one to mete out the judgment and punishment.
Zayin: The judge...and punisher...
Voice: Fulfill your role, as the one closer to God, closer than the Center and closer than the Elders.
Zayin: My...role...Punisher in God's stead...
Also stated by
YHVH himself.
As further proof of this? Look no further than what YHVH does in SMT Apocalypse: When going through YHVH's Universe,
you fight Beelzebub and Lucifuge, and then Lucifer.
Stephen explains that as he works through the Observation of humans, YHVH can recreate anything observed by human eyes as many times as he wants.
What is
Observatio? Well, to make a long story short, in SMT all reality is subjective and defined entirely by the shared Observation of humans. Humans observe a phenomena, and assign an answer to it, be it scientific or supernatural, and through this Observation it is real. The more something is collectively Observe, the more "real" it is.
For example, let's take the phenomena of rain. People in our modern world will Observe it as a natural phenomena, and explain it scientifically. But in Ancient Greece people would assign Zeus as their answer to it, while in Ancient Scandinavia people would assign Thor as their answer to it. Because of this, rain will be a phenomena that is simultaneously caused by the natural laws of physics, but also by supernatural entities like Zeus and Thor. All are real at the same time, and yet neither are real.
YHVH can control the Observations of humans and use it to his favour.
Oh, and in Apocalypse YHVH also
spams infinite Metatrons through the same principle.
I could also talk about YHVH is pretty much nigh-impossible to be killed due to how Observation works. But I think you get the gist of it by now.
There
IS a reason why YHVH is considered the undisputed, absolute King of the 2-A Tier and why you should never, never make matches against him. It's not just favoritism and hype. It's fact.
