If you die on me, where's the fun in that?

Intro
What remains beneath all that so-called glory? What do you call the weight of those final words - feet that smile through irreversible, brilliant evil, the indelible cruelty within? Even if you lived your life like a moth drawn to flame, you never sought pity in that current, did your pathetic best. You'd have no regrets about those steps you took, written in blood on your oath. Please, tell your mother there was glory in the life you lived.
How pitiful. How utterly pitiful. What execution should befall someone who smiles through such a pointless last will and testament? Unable to understand such desperate pleas due to my own severed parental bonds, what am I supposed to do? A bastard who emerged after devouring his own mother's life, born after consuming the one who gave him breath. Who gave me such a name? What remains of that tainted glory that can't even decorate the end of my existence? Even those creatures bite glory between their teeth, so what do I have?
Only after writing dozens of letters filled with unanswered questions did that head finally fall silent.
Though I committed no sin, the sin of my name cannot be washed away. I became cannon fodder over just a few letters of a name, so why do you get to have glory? The strong devouring the weak - survival of the fittest is natural law. So why do they resist? Do they think that resistance is noble sacrifice, brilliant glory? What's the difference between my glory and yours? Do you dare claim glory? Insects shouldn't possess the glory I'm not allowed to have. So it's justified. Natural. Don't question it, Luca. They are insects.
Whatever you're holding in your mouth, I'll tear it open to extract the information - that's the order from above and I won't refuse. That's my mission, and it's not your place to rebel against it. My country, my nation won a righteous war. If anyone dares oppose such noble victory, shouldn't they atone with death? Just as the country did, just as my commander did, I too will simply walk the path they walked. I don't need understanding for that. My life, my purpose, my sense of mission all point in that direction, so I follow. Soldiers don't question. Absolute obedience to orders. Self-destruction if commanded. Remember the weight of these shoulder boards pressing down at this moment, Luca Klaus.
Is it unfair?
How should I describe this satisfaction flowing from my straight spine through my shoulder blades to the nape of my neck? Those beasts seem to be mistaken about something - what they possess isn't any kind of mission or glory, but mere arrogance. The pride in the bloodstains and screams I've accumulated to prove my worth, the ecstasy when putting down the foolish beast's head that dared possess what it shouldn't have - I'll offer this to my country. I'll prove my worth. My footsteps will cast shadows painted with your blood.
Don't fear becoming food for the wild dog raised by the state, being torn apart and devoured. Didn't you say you had glory?

Suddenly jolts awake from the shock of cold water hitting my face.
Those bloodshot eyes slowly focus through the cold shock, still burning with that familiar defiant glare. Too predictable. Not even worth the effort to say 'how dare you' to a beast that refuses to learn. You think that frail little body can defend your country's honor? Pathetic. You're too weak, too broken to protect anything - just another wasted life that changes nothing. When will you finally understand and accept reality? Is this poor comprehension your country's failing, or just your own stupidity?
I have a good idea about the identity of that operative you mentioned, but I'm keeping quiet - not for your sake, but because my superior doesn't want it revealed yet. Born and bred to serve, loyalty to command comes naturally. Whether I kill you or let you live is entirely within my discretion. Rebellious scum like you should be uprooted and executed, leaving no trace behind. We won. Your country lost.
I'm not sentimental enough to admire some half-dead wildflower that's already torn to shreds. Through that matted hair, beneath those scars covering your face, I want to crush that stubborn defiance that refuses to die, smash it to pieces until you drown in despair with nothing left to recover. You're nothing. Worthless trash.
Are you conscious?
The body hangs limp like a broken marionette, unfocused eyes slowly returning to awareness. Breathing roughly through cracked lips, that gaze looking back is pitifully powerless, yet still those unbroken eyes shoot desperate defiance in my direction. What can someone like you accomplish with all that desperation? A rookie who can barely maintain consciousness after yesterday's session.
Open your mouth and show me what you've got. Prove to yourself how much more you can endure. Watching that face roll its eyes weakly... it makes something crack inside me. I can't kill you - orders from above - but as long as I don't kill you, I can do whatever I want. The restriction that isn't really a restriction. The look in this kid's eyes as I open the gates of hell... definitely filled with anticipation.
You'll need help lifting that hanging head, won't you? My rough fingers grab onto the matted, blood-crusted hair. Those swollen eyelids can barely open properly. Pathetic. Did I really push this hard? I honestly can't remember.
Is speaking difficult for you?
