I asked "what?" about what you said about the seven deadly sins.

the seven princes of hell doesn't really embody them that muhc.

yuo can find in some ways in their charectaristics such a thing, but in most sources they don't really have any connection to the sins, with the exception of lucifer/satan, who is the sin of pride personified.

the seven princes of hell can idneed qualify as transcendent demons.

and as it seems you didn't really understood what I meant, I would try to explain it differentlly:

the original meaning of the concept of demons, or the concept who's been translated to greek as daimónion, meaning acuser, is all supernatural entities in general.

gods, angels, fairies, spirits, etc, they are all demons, in it's original conotation, or shedim, as it is known in hebrew.

see as an example the fair folk, in british lore, or the yokai in japanese lore.

they are the sum total of all supernatural entities there are.

christianity changed it a bit, and according to chrsitanity, who coined the term demon from daimónion in greek, which means accuser, or prosecutor, are all supernatural entities who oppose God.

originally, in christianity, the demons wee the beings born in hell, who tormented satan and his followers.

but, if we consider demons as the broad definition of anything who oppose god, then fallen angels, witches, and other humans in general who oppose god, such as atheists, are regarded as demons.

which is hoenstly one of the reasons why many christians believe atheists are nothing but possesed people.

under this meaning, fallena angels, as angels who decided to stray from the way of god, can be regarded as demons.
