Whew! Made it...probably! It's 11:54 as I type this, so it will either be just barely on the 15th that was my target, or a few minutes late! Well, one way or the other its here. Just over 10,000 words, with a bit of a twist for the story that I'm not sure how most will feel about it? I kinda made a liar out of past self, though in my defense, my past self very much believed what he said. The only reason it changed was because you lot voted for us to shift gears towards pushing the industrial/engineering aspect of the story instead of the Guild, which had been my originally mapped intention. Anyway, more on that in the comments as an Author's note, don't want to spoil it before you read the chapters, after all! As always, the new chapters are attached here in various formats. While you can find the Master Files containing the entire story in the Pinned Post. Enjoy!P.S. Don't forget that this story now needs to win the monthly poll to progress, make sure to vote if you haven't yet.

You literally tried less than a minute after publication. Try again? They are working for me.

Chapter 137 Author's Notes: AN 1: So, this chapters was an ATTEMPT to zoom out a bit, and show the greater effects of the Invasion and Izumi/Momo/2B's efforts on humanity. I'm not quite happy with how well it went, but it does at least do the job of showing that their old/current efforts are spreading through other sectors and causing a general uplift effect. Along with showing through Akira a common woman's perspective on the changing world. Not all takes are nearly as positive as hers, of course, but I wanted to show that at least SOME people aren't depressed or isolated, actually considering some of the changes as positive things.

Chapter 138 Author's Notes: AN 1: Ah, and here we have where I made a liar out of myself. Originally, back when I first started, I made it absolutely clear that I did not intend to bring any additional characters from Nier over to MHA. Something that was, at the time, 100% true. But the original path this story was supposed to follow was Canon Divergence->Invasion->Guild->Guild Counter Invasion->Victory->Story Epilogue. My original outline was invalidated when I put the story's focus up to a vote here on Patron and you all surprised me by wanting me to focus more on the engineering and industrial buildup. That caused a massive rewrite to the outline and, eventually, I realized I was going to either need a LOT of OCs, or else to source some support characters from one series or the other. Given their sheer capacity, sourcing that help in the form of the Nier characters made the most sense to me. It's actually the OPERATORS that we'll be seeing the most of, as they support Izumi and Momo's efforts at building up industry. None of the characters will become primary focuses for the story, only supporting cast, with me having ultimately come to the conclusion that using them was better than a flood of OCs. MHA itself just doesn't have that big of a known number of background characters to pull from, unfortunately.

Chapter 139 Author's Notes: AN 1: Lots of setup for integrating the new characters here, really. Along with a small lemon to break it up. Next update will see a return to some action to break up the monotony of the worldbuilding bits a bit more...

Daemonioros

Adding more Androids really is something I was hoping to see so I'm glad it's been added. And yeah activating 9S seems like a gargantuan mistake, best to never do that. Shame the updates will slow down on this now. Really want to see this to the end.

Wolf rose

Izumi wouldn't technically have to lie in saying that her sentient Quirk awakened and now she has more sentient like beings that were stored in her that were unable to come out until she reached a certain point to awake in them

Novus's Fanfiction Works

Sort of. Since they are no longer connected to her Quirk, though, it would be a massive stretch that would entirely too probably be caught eventually.

Novus's Fanfiction Works

Yeah, still kinda bummed about that, since this story had a solid chance of wrapping up by the end of the year with regular updates. As is, who knows...

Artemis

I loved Kiyomi's retrospective on Momo's life. Also, 6O 100% needs to meet Kiki and Akira (mostly Kiki so they can drive Akira nuts together).

Novus's Fanfiction Works

:-p. I'm not sure I can write those two in the same place without the computer exploding to save itself ;-). Glad you liked the different viewpoint. I thought it was both a good way to get an outside perspective on just how gigantic what they've actually done already is (since Momo and Izumi both treat it is normal), while also building up one of Momo's parents a bit. Since we don't even have names for them from canon, I haven't done much with them directly.

So I had finally time to read the new chapters....... I like the outside pov it makes me almost want a pov from some people more removed from the mcs but higher up in military command or politics to see how they are perceived from that kind of view Ah new androids I was seriously surprised as as you stated in your notes that you said we would 100% not get any other nier characters but it kind of makes sense how that came 2B ....... Also I wish 2B had full backups of Devola and Popola somehow ....those two would really help and deserve a second chance ...... I look forward to seeing more also perhaps 6O should date 2B ...... Mh 2B or not 2B.....that is the question

Novus's Fanfiction Works

As to the other androids, check Chapter 138 Author's Notes - AN 1 here in the comments for an explanation :-). As for the possibility of 6O and 2B, I actually am considering that possibility, but haven't decided if I want to explore the idea or not.

Hope…a simple but powerful Force. And something that’s been enough to turn the most ordinary of men and women into the most extraordinary heroes.
