Yeah, in the WN he solo killed a lone orc later on before eating a bit of its heart. I should catch up on the WN one of these days, looks like it's at chapter 564 and I stopped at 522? I kind of want more story pertaining the mysterious history of the world, and when I stopped it was spending a lot of time on anti-royalty/nobility rebels instead.
Apparently their world used to be a lot more like modern-day earth, except with magic-based technology. Beast people weren't a thing back then either, instead it was basically just humans without personal individual magic. But from the point where I stopped, we still don't know what caused the destruction of the past civilization and rise of the current one.
