> what do you mean under "roam wild and free"

That, like animals, they wander off into the wilderness never to be seen by their parents again, to survive or perish upon the threats they encounter struggling tooth and claw against the natural world.

> when do you think monster kinds get independent and WHY do you think so?

A week after birth? Two? A couple of months? Idk. Lots of animals run the whole gamut, and monsters are part animal, part succubus, so i would expect them to follow animal methods more than human methods.

> The first sentence indicates that infants are breastfed, which is impossible to do if they are dumped as soon as they can walk.

No it isn't impossible. Breastfeeding for a week is still breastfeeding.

> The third sentence inidicates that during cHildhood they benefit from mother's DE which heavily implies that they stay very close to her.

It would if demon and spirit energies weren't nebulous magical fields that can be transmitted across arbitrary distances and require no physical proximity at all (see: monsters' DE powering up the Demon Lord, monsters being able to sense their husband's energy signature from any amount of distance away). How do you think the mother's DE gets into the child? We've never been told. My working assumption was that it is literally transmitted over the emotional bond, and so requires no proximity whatsoever.

> you state "MONSTERS are evolved species" which is just plain wrong

YOU were the one that brought up r/k in the first place, don't you go disavowing it now just 'cos I've proven it supports me, not you. Monsters can be designed by the Chief God in the first place and then evolved in the thousands of eons since the world was set in motion. If I understand correctly that is literally the position of the Orthodox Church irl. God sets the starting conditions: then evolution.

> For that reason there are naturally fewer individuals than humans, and it is much more difficult for them to multiply."

Well, I never really understood this, because there's plenty of monsters that are plainly hordelings, like goblins and khepri. Also, does it mean that the number of all monster species put together is less than the number of humans, or does it mean that no single monster species outnumbers humans, but if, idk, you add the inaris, the jinkos, and the werebats together, they outnumber humans? It also says there are "naturally" fewer of them than humans, but the situation we're in with monstergirls is very much unnatural. No-one knows how many years have passed since the monster -> monstergirl transformation, but given that they have sex all the time now and are really really interested in getting knocked up, monstergirls could have changed the demographic balance.

> Humans were kept in check(by being slaughtered in thousands) by monsters as well "natural" disasters until they were at a brink of extinction, then CG empowered a hero who actually could(unlike other humans) kill monsters in droves, who then killed DL and monsters decended into in-fighting.

Well, if you only want to look at one half of the situation, fine. But one could just as easily say "Monsters were kept in check (being slaughtered by the thousands) by humans until the humans were too powerful, then the CG empowered a DL who actually could (unlike other monsters) crush human nations in droves, who then defeated all the heroes and the human race was plunged into a dark age".
