Hola lacaya,

It appears I struck a nerve after all, as evidenced by your baseless assumptions about my person. Why should I believe anything you say? For all I know, your Prime Minister was indeed on board that ship, cowering at my sudden appearance right next to her stronghold of Planet New Tokyo.

A word of advice, my dear. Worry less about my face or my private life, and worry more about your safety and the laughably deficient security that allowed me to get so close to your liner in the first place. Music is pleasant, until you are facing a barrage of gunfire because you thought you could get away without paying tribute to us.

And please, spare me the empty threats. We both know the Hogosha would not dare to "send a pipe bomb" straight to Creta. I am much more likely to perish from laughter.

Until next time,
Commander of the Mors Certissima
