[It's a polite dismissal in return as is his nature, but curt and without room for argument. It's hardly as if he thinks he's perfect at what he does, "Ultimate" or not. But he doesn't really want advice from someone who casually admits to planning a murder without remorse.
He should just take what he can from this. If all this is something similar to the game, somehow, then it's unlikely to be one where the Ultimate titles exist. His age got him brushed off too easily for that. And if it's not something similar, then...he's got no idea what's going on.]
