"if he orders the head of the Bael Clan to do something"

Why in the world would Sirzechs do that?

"what makes the Bael Clan so special to have this much power because this privilege should belong the members of the Lucifer Clan"

 * Maou clans - not part of the government. Considered as outcasts/exiles.
 * Bael
 * Agares
