Genis didn't mind Mithos being brought up. Granted, it still hurt that Mithos eventually betrayed them, but at the same time, Genis had had time in advance to figure that out. When Yggrasil had dropped those pan pipes, the seed of doubt had been planted... and it was well germinated by the time they encountered Mithos again. That's not to say that a lot of who Genis had come to be wasn't shaped by Mithos and his betrayal; on the contrary, much of Genis' own ideology was an attempt to unpervert the ideals that Mithos—the original Mithos before he formed Cruxis during the great war—stood for.

"If you're talking about if Mithos regretted me choosing Lloyd over him, I'm not so sure about that," he says a little more directly. Genis had realised after enough time that Mithos had tried to drive a wedge between him and Lloyd, to bring him into his conclave of half-elves ruling over the world. Regret was definitely not a feeling that Mithos had in abundance, though there's probably a similar word to what Raine actually means. "But that's ancient history, and I think we both know enough who Mithos actually was.

"Still, even if Bakura is like Mithos in some ways, I still want to give him a chance. And if you need me to promise to be careful," he continues, now in something of a sing-songy voice, "I'll promise it." Genis would like to think he's learned the lesson from Mithos enough not to fall into it again.
