"Yes, I am old."
"If it were the old you, even if you needed weapons, you wouldn't need them so early."
"That was indeed the old me, but..."
"But what?"
"But now when I think back to the old me, I realize I was an idiot back then."
"Haha... you've successfully made me laugh."
Owen got what he wanted, and that's enough.

"Hey! Our next opponent is pretty good!"
"Who is it?"
"It's a guy from France, his name is Steel Egg."
"Steel Egg?"
"Yes, haha... you must be thinking of that Japanese cartoon with the same name."
"The one about robot fights?"
"Wow! You've actually seen it too."
"Now it's already the internet age."
"Yeah, true, but this Steel Egg is pretty formidable, I heard the Lopez Clan bet on him last time."
"Who cares about that."
