He wanted to experience the satisfaction of seeing despair, shock, fear and finally begging to be spared.
Michel Voight wanted to break Nathan before finally eliminating him. Taking him down while he stood so tall in a majestic form was.. somewhat pointless.
He wouldn't be able to enjoy his victory.
Which was why he tried time and time again to trigger an emotional response from Nathan but despite his efforts… Nathan remained calm and his expression tranquil to a fault that seemed quite strange.

Michel shook off the thought as he thought it to be absurd. What kind of a person would be smiling when faced with the wrath of so many cadets?
