First of two Industrious chapters!

I anticipate getting to the end of this arc, which should be around chapter 40/41 by the end of the month.  This will leave things off on a good note, not a cliffhanger, while I put this story on hiatus next month.  Just for one month.  I've been writing Industrious for a solid half-year at this point and I need some time to sketch out the next couple of arcs before committing to stuff in the future.

Another chapter should be out by the end of the week, with The New Ron taking the weekend slot this time around.

Rock on and know that I appreciate all of your incredible support!

Industrious 31-40

Chapter 31: Satsuki watched as Yakumo and I prepared another series of canvases and metal frames for the tertiary testing of a new gate. While the project had been officially taken over by a group from ANBU's research and development division, the body language that the masked individuals had g...

….What? I can tell it’s a genjustu but it just kinda came out of nowhere and I have no idea what’s going on, you did a good job of making everything feel off enough to highlight the dream logic but I don’t know what caused this vision

Matthew Robar

I got that, or well it was implied enough that I was thinking it. But the only thing I can think of as a reason it happened is that interacting directly with Yakumo’s chakra caused this hallucination, although the Implication of Ido knowing ninshu while yakumo doesn’t could be intriguing and imply something about bloodlines

I very much like where this went an where it looks like it's going. I would find it hilarious if he checks Naruko seal him using Ninshu gets Kurama attention an he ends up having to Talk to him

Robert Krol

That was jarring as fuck. I'm gonna guess it's a genjutsu of some kind. Problem is it came out of nowhere. . .

Link gose to chapter 31 instead of chapter 37

Huh so it's not repressed trauma and negative thoughts/feelings like we were led to believe (Nor is it an it since they seem to have settled on the female gender).

My first thought on hearing that name was this https://overflow.fandom.com/wiki/Kokoro_Katsura

Personally I think that the explanation is more evangelion-like. Kokoro (Ido) basically is chakra currently, without even a body. Her way of interacting with the world is genjutsu, that is basically the most bastardized direct use of Ninshu between the ninja arts. As such for her ninshu is really easy to learn

Basically he made a deal with Yakumo's "dark side". Which translates into him getting a daughter, lol, when he finally has time to get his ducks in a row. Poor dude started this fic wanting to discover the secrets of the universe and chakra but the Harem call is too strong.

tbh, I started skimming when he was going through his illusory future life, but tuned back in for Kokoro. The whole scene makes sense with how she's involved, and it implies some interesting things about the metaphysics involved. Not sure if I'd enjoy a description of those metaphysics, but knowing that they're still there beyond the reincarnation is good by itself.

Kerrus Magrus

Oof, this one got me right in the Kokoro.

Hmmm, I'm painfully reminded of a Superman comic where a psychic traps him in a perfect illusion of living his life on krypton complete with family. It was such a beautiful dream.

What gets me on this...is he knew it was an illusion almost right away, and played along with it, which has to be the first time I've seen that sort of response to this. Usually it's just "Seal it" or "Kill it", not 'play along'. Surprise Daughter Get! Yakumo is going to be surprised, then supremely embarrased when she finds out...and it'll be worth every moment to see this at the end.
