|content=The feeding habits of the monsters can be generally split into two different types. One eats ordinary food, like the meat of animals, vegetables, fruit, etc. The other type, which sustain themselves on a type of vital energy called “[[Essence]]” that is contained in the body of humans, and especially plentiful in men, has increased due to the influence of the current monster lord. Those monsters that sustain themselves with essence, gain essence as it flows out together with saliva, semen, etc. Inside of their bodies, it is converted into nourishment and [[Mamono Mana|mana]]. Also, this process will not kill a man. It is also possible for monsters that use essence as their main source of nourishment to gain nutrients from eating ordinary food, but it is comparatively far less efficient. On the contrary, it is also possible for those monsters that mainly eat ordinary food to take in essence as their own mana. A man's essence is delicious and appealing to all monsters. It is their number one treat.

Additionally, in the age of the former mamono lord, the monsters preferred to consume human flesh, but the present monsters instinctively find it disgusting, and to them, it would be unthinkable.}}</div>
