Jacques twitched slightly when Cloud said that he had survived several stabbings, but gave no other visible reaction.
"As have I. Among many more severe injuries." He said. "And as I said, I am sure that you must be able to wield the weapon faster than its size would suggest, else you would not have survived in battle. I grant you that I would be cautious when facing such a weapon, but I have faced a zweihander in the past, and triumphed. It is a matter of timing and persistance rather than precision and finesse as with a fellow fencer. Any weapon can be defeated by any other, for the most part. You must simply understand what you are doing, and of course, must have the competence to wield your weapon."
