"It's the opposite to spirit energy, akin to light and darkness. Darkness is bad in a swords and sorcery setting." On what basis can you tell that light is good and darkness bad? As natural forces, both are neutral. It's what people decide to do with them that is good or bad. One could use light to do evil just like one can use darkness to do good. The world of Monster Girl Quest is a good example of such setting. Saying that one is evil and the other good is like saying that water is good because it doesn't hurt (at room temperature) and fire is evil because it burns stuff while completely ignoring the fact that both can kill and save lives.

"A minority of monsters enjoy the arts and cultures, the ones more "humanized" than the rest. Monsters stop working and become lax once they obtain a husband. They really only work so they can obtain a mate." Why do you sound like you take the hyperboles in the monsters' profiles literally?

"Last I checked, rape is a crime, regardless of species." Last time I checked, we don't send lions in prison for having sex with another lion without conscent.

"The Order is not lying regarding the extinction of humanity due to the spread of demonic energy and they honestly are trying to protect humanity from the monsters' corruptive influence."

"You want peaceful resolution? Have a demilitarized zone constructed in a no man's land between the demon realms and the Human lands. Any entity, whether human or monster crossing this border will shot and killed." Whatever involves threatening each other with instant death is not what I call peaceful. If you want to solve a problem, tackle its source, not the effect as those will persist as long as the source remains. Humans and monsters are just the pawns, but the source of the problem lies within the players: the Demon Lord and the Chief God. If we want peaceful coexistence, they are the ones we have to get to, be it through reason or by force.
