Master was having a difficult time understanding Jack's telepathic message. He thought perhaps the fool had lost his mind and was being delusional.
"You know, before this fight ends, I want to express my admiration," Master heard Jack's voice in his mind again. "Make no mistake, I still think you are an a*shole. You are a selfish, narcissistic dude who does not care for the suffering of others at the expense of your goal. The world will be a better place without a person like you. That said, you are also a very capable and determined individual."
"I care not for your praise," Master replied.
"It's not praise. I'm simply getting my opinion off my chest before our rivalry ends."
