Within typical setting of the genre, no not really. In basic fantasy the monster is always stronger than the average soldier. That's why the town guard has to rely on the wandering adventurer to save the day.

As to the corruption, it never gives a timeline as to how long the corruptive power takes. I sincerely doubt that you could corrupt an object just by handing it to a devilbug and calling it good. Hell corruptive power is a way KC has demonstrated immense power. It's one of the ways that shows lilim are overwhelmingly strong in that they could corrupt a region instantly where as in most species it likely takes decades to centuries for a population to corrupt an area. Species like lilim a baphomets are already nerfed, not due to a lack of power but due to rarity and general inaction. Druella, while among the most vocal lilim, has only ever taken action against Lescatie and that's over centuries of her lifespan. If she actually tried she could probably corrupt the planet in a couple of months but she doesn't, for several reasons.

The corruptive power is also within genre as it gives the heroes the reason why their heroic deeds are urgently needed.

You're wanting a fair playing field Jorge. Fair playing fields don't make heroes or legends.
