>Anyway, we still have another one hole in the lore. KC first say that mamono even can't understand how is it possible to cheat and then he is writing that they are able to cheat on their husband.

That's not what is said on either basis. On the first part, its said they are in "half disbelief" (as opposed to "full disbelief") when they hear that some women think nothing of infidelity. In other words they understand cheating on some level, they just can't see themselves doing it so casually.

And as for this "pseudo NTR" look at the context, its a monster being placed under hypnosis to make her think she is married to someone else (most likely by some guy who wanted her as his wife or to set her against her husband).

However, since spells won't be able to change what a monster knows is true in her soul and instincts, this hypnosis only succeeded in making her rationalize essentially that "okay, so this guy I feel nothing for is my 'husband,' but I still know I love this other guy."

Recall for monsters the pair bonding is instinctual, and "husband" isn't even a word some of them use (some only refer to their mate as their slave, food, and such). All the hypnosis did was cause her to rationalize a way to stay loyal to the man she loves.

For monsters, love and loyalty to that love are a lot more important than the words used or even their own memories.

Lastly, we have zero indication that any monster would choose to have such hypnosis used on them (a scenario where a mindflayer makes her think her husband has the form of an orc from the former era is a bit different as it involves nothing that can even be perceived as cheating). All we have is Runya using examples of attempts people used to turn monsters against their husbands, and the way in which those attempts utterly failed.
