We suffer, while they rejoice.
We cried, while they laughed.
We lose, while they gain.
We ran, and they chased.
We suffer, while they are satisfied with the baskets of food that is never spent.
We were buried, and they provided the coffin.

“Heh, so these depraved ones have already destroyed one city, huh ?” silvia gumam.
He lay on his bedroom bed, sliding his tablet, which showed Bulwark's success in invading Arthurians. Not the actual Arthurians, but one of the cities, namely Pendragon. The longer he read the good news, the more disgusted he was to the invaders from Bulwark mentioned by the news. In the end, he threw his tablet to the left side, and he then stared up at the ceiling of his room.
If I live here, does that mean I'm one of them too ? Those voracious pigs ?
The daydream continued for some time, before it was finally dissolved by a notification sound from his tablet. Silvia lazily turned to her tablet for a while, before then retrieving it and reading the contents of the notification. Just reading a few opening sentences, it had made Silvia snort loudly in annoyance.
Congratulations to the mechanic Silvia Ashford, your admission to Stargazer Academy has been accepted !
In the span of 7 days starting from this message delivered to you, you will officially become part of Stargazer Academy. School supplies will be delivered to your residence soon.
Based on the statistics from the Mechanoid Basic Skill (MBS) test, you have been classified as a : Frontline Fighter.
Thus the announcement from us, Stargazer Academy, thank you.
Principal of Stargazer Academy, Lylia Berthoud.
“(Sigh) Who else signed up, damn it. Really surprising, the redhead witch did not insert her mutiara message in the slightest here. Waw.” Silvia told herself.
Again, he put his tablet on his left side, after which continued to reflect back. His mind was filled with news of the occupation being carried out by Bulwark at the moment, that was all. Silvia began to think, what were the people from that world feeling ?
For more than a week he stayed in his room, lying down like a critically ill man in his bed. He had not seen for a long time what Bulwark was like now. After rolling around for a moment on her bed, Silvia finally decided to take the intention of walking out of her room again, as on the first day after she was expelled from Militus. As usual, he changed his clothes, changed his appearance, then walked out of his room only to be greeted by a crowd of citizens passing by in front of his room.
Maybe, I'll take a look at that fucking academy for a second.
And that was the plan this time, going towards Stargazer academy that had not even been opened at all. During the journey to get there, as usual he began eavesdropping on the conversations of citizens in Bulwark secretly. Some are happy with the success of Bulwark to take over the city, but there are also those who feel the suffering of humans from other worlds there. Silvia paid no heed to the Bulwarks' empathy for 'them', because what she cares most about right now is how she can change those inhumane people, including the soldiers of Bulwark and its Mechanoid-mechanoid.
Upon arrival there, at Stargazer academy, all Silvia saw were the academy staff who were busy preparing for the welcoming ceremony. Looks really annoying to Silvia. For him, education is not important. As long as he had above average fighting abilities, for him it would be enough as a mechanoid. Silvia was still watching the busyness of the staff, until suddenly, a little girl dressed in purple typical of English nobility came from behind and poked herself from behind. Silvia almost shouted loudly and destroyed the atmosphere like before, but this time she still managed to control herself. Silvia looked back, and when she saw it, the girl was not much different from the 7-year-old girls as usual, just that this one looked a bit different, just that, or looks a little annoying to be precise.
“Bokah, who are you?” silvia asked, in a friendly tone but also with a mixture of vexation so deeply and hiddenly soaked.
The girl simply looked into her eyes with a plain face, and then began to cover part of her face with a purple fedora hat smoking her. The girl snorted, while posing strangely anime-style.
“You don't know me, young man ??”
What the fuck is with this rude and presumptuous boy ?
Silvia had expected this to happen. The little girl with her strange and disgusting clothes in her eyes was truly a very annoying figure and also above average level of human sanity.
“Hmph, as if everyone here would like to know an autistic boy like you.”
“You dare call me autistic, Silvia Ashford !? I am Lylia Berthoud, the principal of this academy, know !!”
What the fuck is this !? He knew my name clearly, and this bastard boy is also the principal here !!? The world is definitely being attacked by an anomaly !!!
“Already expected, you will be surprised, right, boy ? Better go back to your room, or your registration will be canceled right now. After all, I am the most powerful in this academy, understand ??”
Fucking 7-year-old boy. If it wasn't for that red witch who always haunts me, I would have hit my otaku boy's head earlier, motherfucker !!
“Cih, alright.”
Forcibly, Silvia left Lylia grumbling along the way back to her room. Again, Silvia passed through a crowd of citizens who talked about the occupation of Pendragon. Most of them looked up, watching television that displayed the state of the environment there. Of course it was not the city of Pendragon that had been charred in flames, but the green and colorful nature around it. It really looks very beautiful, and Silvia is difficult to imagine what it would be like if the scenery would be destroyed all by the Bulwark occupation. Will it recover ? Or will it still be destroyed thanks to the hands of Bulwark who robbed everything that the magical world has ?
So they're sending drones there ? It was their intention to colonize the world.
Forgetting about Bulwark's news broadcast, Silvia continued walking back to her room. A few moments had passed, and as soon as his eyes could see the door of his room from afar, he also saw a familiar man leaning against the wall not far from the door of his room. She was filled with frustration, and Silvia walked past the man pretending not to recognize him at all. His hand was just about to open the door, and the man immediately bothered him by talking to him.
“I feel sorry for you, Silvia. Must change appearance every time out of his room.”
“Not mind me. You're no longer my teacher, are you?”
Silence hung between them for a moment, before finally being broken by Silvia's breath as she walked into her room. No answer or other speech could be heard from Tamashi's mouth, making Silvia finally stop at the doorstep for a while.
“You participated in the destruction of that city, didn't you ? You guys are really more worthy of being called dogs than humans.”
The door to the room was closed hard. Tamashi's mind was immediately rattled by the words of Silvia just now. His heart hurt, but it was true what he said. Tamashi can feel the misery of the humans in the other world, and all their suffering, caused by none other than himself.
Tamashi then walked out of his student's room. Maybe it's time for the two of them to separate. I don't know until when.

Long Zhen Kingdom, Eastern Arthurians.
“Inspector Gong Jing, I heard the city of Pendragon was destroyed by being colonized by something. Is that true ?”
The long-gray-bearded old man nodded in agreement, while folding both his hands in front of his chest. He bowed respectfully, then turned to look at the other three elders. The old man named Gong Jing was currently inside a palace meeting room, with its walls all red and several yellow seals affixed to its walls.
“True sir, what a terrible news in this very peaceful and serene age. There is some bird news as well that the opponent they are fighting is not a human, but rather thousands of giant flying objects that shoot explosive magic!!”
“For Great God Huang On top of Pole Zu !! Why haven't we given any help to our alliance in the past !!? What do we do by sitting quietly on this throne while they are all suffering !!? Gong Jing, how long has the bad news been here !!?” said the old man on the left.
“Calm down, Deng Mao !! We also have a big problem in our homeland !! What about that attack from that Guan Yu bastard, Gong Jing !!? said another old man who was to the right of Deng Mao.
The four elders were arguing with each other until their voices filled the entire spacious room. So fierce was their debate, that Gong Jing was unable to follow the topic of their conversation, and finally could only remain silent. Even if he intervened to appease them, all he would get was a disrespectful mention loudly spoken by the four of them.
Suddenly, a warrior dressed in sea-blue armor with dragon patterns everywhere came and opened the door of the meeting room violently. The entire attention of the five immediately stared at the soldier in blue armor sharply. There was once a harsh word that the four elders were about to say, but they soon realized that the person was carrying a bad news along with him.
“Speak, Zhang Fei !!” said Cheng Yuanzhi, an elder who sat on the far left.
The man named Zhang Fei then took a few steps forward, after which saluted the four elders. They looked extremely nervous, panicked, and felt impatient to hear the unknown bad news. After a moment of silence, Zhang Fei opened his mouth.
“Honor to all four elders. The invaders who destroyed that Pendragon city, they came here !!”
