I dunno. Despite his connections, Jared just seems like the sort of guy who only goes as far as he thinks he has power over others, then sees no reason to further refine that power. Like, he probably found an arrow that can do really powerful damage in the right circumstances, and he'll spend the rest of the time patting himself on the back rather than doing anything productive. He delights in having power over others, but we never see him like in the gym. So my impression is that he felt super powerful after getting powers and has taken that to mean he's back on top of the food chain, so he isn't doing anything productive on top of it. Otherwise he would've absolutely taken the free hit on the MC back at the Battle of Diamonds more seriously. We know it's strong cause it one shot Laurie, a Level 2, but it also dinked the MC.
Put together, Jared imo is the guy who cares more about appearing strong rather than being strong.
