"Of course I'm not some almighty pin head kid. There's plenty of folks who can take me here. There are also plenty whom I'd stomp into the ground. And there are many here who wouldn't even see Zaku's blade before they felt it sting them. Only a fool seeks to show off power. If you boast too much you're only going to fall all that much harder when you fall too ground and you will eventually." Jiro said as he decided on a small bronze necklace for Isabelle as he stuffed it into his pouch and shoved the money he owed to the shop keep into the man's hands. "You know first blood isn't fun at all. All it takes is one slip of the finger and you're out of the game. Better to go for KO Matches. Solid and the fighters are actually tougher and give you better ideas on how to fight others like them. The arena battles though...no battle is worth your life kid remember that. Unless you specifically said you intended to give your life to finish it then well go by all means and do so." Jiro said as he turned around and left the stall area seeing as there were people lining up and he was blocking the way. He tossed his mug over to Zaku who put it inside the back pack that he was holding for whatever they decided to purchase. "If you're really intending to recuit us in your little money making scheme kid then have a walk with me and tell me why exactly this is worth my time besides money. I have plenty of money to get from body guard duty. Ylisse nobles are pissin' their breeches trying to find a way to protect themselves from pissed commoners. Why should I get my hands dirty working with you and how do I know you can hold your end of the deal?" Jiro said as he started to walk away and Zaku followed him without speaking.
