Arai-san Mansion ■ Minmi
Please refer to the hell area about how Minmi came to be.

・When a life is fed to the king, the vessels increase in number and a "Minmi who has no intelligence" is born.
・When one takes the opportunity to leave the floor and escape from the king's thrall, it will gain intelligence and become a normal Friend.
・However, it will continue to have a strong sense of homesickness for the Minmi floor or the savannah.
Something like that...
The idiot king can grant wishes for an equivalent price, but if the thing offered isn't sufficient, then it will be no good. Thus, if you want a wish granted for sure, then you must offer something of the highest value, like the hell area Raccoon-san.
The vessels have inherited the experience of when the first person was turned into a Serval a long time ago, so they aren't acting under the king's orders when they capture a person and feed them to it. Like how things get passed on in monkey cages at the zoo from previous generations, this is some sort of strange, local game that is inherited. An odd game like poking an acorn with a stick that's inherited.
The Serval-chan-likes that regain their intelligence randomly have the memories of other people who were eaten mixed in. Or something like that.
