Well, if it isn't Novice Hans, again.

Have you been keeping up with your training?

What'd you say? Oh, I see.. so you're a Contender now...

It hasn't even been that long since you were promoted to Warrior, has it?

Hmm... Could it be that you have some powerful connections?

...Or did you manage it all on your own?

Well, either way, having good connections couldn't hurt...

But you know, connections can only get you so far!

You should slow down a bit before you really get hurt, you idiot!
