@Demotivator: "For example, Baylord Yama doesn't have any mention of the Zahard Empire or Great Families in his lore." I'm not sure how this supports the point you and Adat wish to make; this is merely an absence of information, not an information in any particular direction. In other words, Baylord Yama can still be targeting a single Family Head that is not and--according to the FUG Slayer setup as I understand it--cannot be targeted by any other Slayer (my point), and it can equally mean that he's targeting no Family Head in particular and simply wishes to take down the Zahard Empire, or that he's targeting more than one Family Head (your point). And the very same applies to the situation with Imort.

The reason why I ponder this question with Lustec but not with Baylord Yama or Imort is because we already know some rather important things about Lustec; namely, he used to be V's follower, and he bears Arlen's family name. Since we know that V and Arlen went against and suffered greatly because of Zahard, what we know of Lustec should be a solid foundation to view Lustec as someone who really wants Zahard (in particular) to suffer and die, and yet the Slayer that targets Zahard (in the setup as I understand it) is Karaka. This I find rather peculiar. One might argue that Lustec realises that he cannot beat Zahard and therefore delegates the task onto someone who might stand a chance, but Karaka--despite any incredible potential--doesn't really seem to fit the role, either. Karaka may be incredibly talented and virtually impossible to kill1, but we have already seen that he's only about a match for a talented Zahard Princess, and it's not like he can deal with Zahard's contract anyway.

1There may be some weakness or shortcoming in Karaka's technique / ability (e.g., instant kill, the "checkpoint" being destroyed, etc.), but at this point it looks like he can simply deploy a "checkpoint" (I assume, since he always returns to a seemingly identical place every time, though it may be merely an ad hoc decision), and then escape there at any point from any situation while fully restoring himself.
