I guess animals and plants in Demon Realms still produce SE, despite being heavily infused with DE, or they would be listed as exceptions...

It is strange that DE don't snuff out SE in plants and animals like it does in women, but I guess since monsterization originally was a Succubus power intended to turn women into more Succubi, it just don't work on creatures and objects that weren't its intended victims to begin with (Living Dolls, Living Armors, Obakes...etc., existed as monsters before the current DL changed how DE works).

So... did monsters before the current Demon Lord also not produce Spirit Energy or is that only because of the Succubus thing. I could certainly see pre-Monster Girl monsters (except for Succubi) getting by just fine on spirit energy from food.
