He stares at the night sky, for an instant, and then sighs.
“We believe what we want to, in the end, isn’t it so Luthor? I can tell you all day long that the world is a wonderful place to be in, but in the bitter end, it is easier for you to be what you want to be, a mindless tool in the hand of another, rather than act with your mind and will.
It is easier for you to see the world with the eyes of your master, rather than be bothered to accept that you, yourself, are to blame for your shortcomings. And not the world you live in. Sure, the reality is tough and cruel sometimes, but if it wasn’t it wouldn’t be Mother Earth, it would be paradise. And paradise it is not, Luthor Carbrey.”
He shakes his head and leans back.
“It is not so that I refuse to see. It is not so that I can´t see with my eyes. The reality we live in; I sure know it. I have been wandering around since I was a whippersnapper. I suffered pain and betrayal at the hands of those I called friends, but I never lost hope. I always believed in myself, in the world I live in, and in my Dreams.
It was tough, tougher than choosing to be a tool in someone else's possession. But it was my choice, and in the end, I prevailed. I win more times than not, I am a champion more times than not, and a Hero in the eyes of those who love me and whom I love back.
And that, Luthor Carbrey, gives me hope and makes me mighty. You chose to be a good Soldier rather than a bad General, and I can accept that. But that doesn´t mean I am the same and do the same. I chose to be a General because I know my talent and limits, and you Carbrey, chose to be merely a Soldier because you know what you can't do. “
A smile
“That is a declaration of failure when it comes to facing me. Do you want to be a tool? Merely a knife in someone else's hand? Fine and dandy. But a weapon can’t usually act on itself, it can't think, and when it comes to facing me? To face a former World Champion? That is a hindrance and a shortcoming.
What will you do without orders? Without someone who orders you to act; how to do it? When you find yourself in that Squared Circle facing me, Luthor Carbrey, you will need all your might and intelligence you possess. And you, yourself, admitted you are a weapon. Does that mean you can't improvise and do not possess in-ring intelligence?
How will you act without someone giving you directions and telling you what to do? Or will you, in the end, accept that you too are a mere human and need to think on your own when it comes to overcoming big hindrances?
That is your mission, in the upcoming fight, Luthor Carbrey.
Find the might to act and think on your own.
Or you will Fail and Fail Miserably.
See you in the Ring, and may the Deities of Combat give you Intelligence and Wisdom”
