I cannot blame you for being surprised, but I've been taught to fight at a very young age. I was a knight for my kingdom back at home, so fighting is not something alien to me.
Y-Yeah... I've been learning how to fight for about three semesters now.
I'm a little behind everyone else, though...

I fight with these! But I don't mind learning other techniques - I guess anything helps, right?
W-Well, it was more like... two semesters in school, plus time I spent here..... [ That sounds even less impressive now. ]
Anyway, that's... like, just a little over a year. Youuu know what length of time a year is, right? Maybe you're from a world where years don't exist. Hey, if you ask me to break this down minutes or something, my head's literally gonna explode!

[ It's not just training, but actual experience that makes someone good with the sword. ]

Thank you, I won't let you down!! I'll be your best student, and one day when you see me slay a dragon or a robot, or some kinda robo-dragon, you'll be able to point at me and say "See that guy? The handsome one doing a victory backflip? That's Jaune Arc, my finest student!"

She nods her head. That's pretty basic weapon wise, but it's definitely proficient. ]
There is no such thing as someone reaching their limit in what they can learn. My own mentor told me that when I learned the way of the spear.
