As long as it was merely a barrage of insults and not a barrage of weapons, I think you should call yourself lucky.

[Diarmuid remembers far too vividly how Gilgamesh had attacked Berserker that night. The Mad Servant might have been skilled enough to turn some of those weapons back at Gilgamesh, but Diarmuid doubts Kayneth would have had a chance.]

So I should brace myself for taunts about a bad end when I meet him? I will keep that in mind and make sure to ignore his words...

[Some things may be Fated to happen, but others, those Diarmuid will never give up fighting for no matter what anyone tells him. He does not break the vows he makes and he vowed to win the war for his lord.]
