The task was extremely tedious.
He was also hungry. Taking a short break to hunt in Cyclops Canyon, he only encountered various demons, either inedible or unpalatable.

Lacking an appetite, but the task was so exhausting he forced himself to eat more, even saving the leftovers.
Water wasn't a concern, as he always had an ample supply of mineral water stored in the "Servant's Book."
