If a living creature wants to grow, then it must eat.
Plants needed to consume water and air in conjunction with sunlight in order to provide them the nutrients to grow.
Animals and humans on the other hand has to eat and drink if they want to live and reach the peak of their ages.
Eating is a basic facet of life that had been obvious for all the time that living beings have appeared.
Without eating, there will be no progress for any living beings.
And the same thing holds true for the monsters too.

Alex could only shake his head wryly at his Abyss Sprite's endearing behavior.
