Actually Astrumratio it was stated from the start that chaos monsters were always true monsters (or "kin to all monsters" as the original info about them stated) and this is why the Scholar stated it was likely they all had become monster girls. They're "just" a special subset of monsters, not truly eldritch beings in a literal sense (the true chaos monsters were introduced as monsters that once shared rule of the oceans with Poseidon).

Course all you need to be considered a monster in the setting is to produce only mamono mana. Hence why the designation "monster" covers such a wide range of beings and why non-monsterized elves and dwarves are considered species of humans (they all produce human mana).
