"Yes, her condition is excellent. At this rate, we might be able to finish today…."
"That's a relief."
When nearly two weeks had passed, the medical officer delivered the news. Hanna's condition was very good, and it seemed she could complete her Awakening with one more dive into the mana spring. It matched what was written in my [Status Analysis], so I nodded gladly.
But as if burdened by the final entry into the spring, Hanna's expression was strangely dark.
"What's wrong, Corporal Hanna? Once we finish this last step, you can return. Aren't you happy?"
"…Ah, yes. I have to return…. Once I return…."
Hanna answered with empty eyes.
That evening, as always, only Hanna and I occupied the vast cavern.
"…Excuse me, Lieutenant. My condition today is somewhat… strange… Could you watch me properly from beginning to end?"
"…? Sure, I understand."
I answered without much thought.
'Her condition is strange…? Status Analysis.'
[Using skill 'Status Analysis (Lv.2)' on 'Hanna Mayer'.]
[Name: Hanna Mayer]
[Status: Mana circulation has reached its peak, making her bodily senses extremely sensitive. Maintained in a state of mild arousal due to continuous mana stimulation.]
[Emotions: Regret that this is the end, a strong desire to show the Lieutenant everything she is, an inescapable shame mixed with a strange excitement.]
'Aha, so that's what this was.'
I quickly figured out her intentions, but didn't voice them.
Having heard my answer, Hanna seemed to resolve herself and stood facing me. She slowly began removing her clothes. Her hands hesitated, but did not stop.
Her military top came off, revealing the outline of her full breasts through her slightly sweat-dampened undergarments. When she removed her pants, the smooth lines of her straight legs and thighs emerged.
When only her panties remained, she paused briefly to catch her breath. Then, as if having made up her mind, she pulled those down as well. The panties slid down her legs. And then her pussy, covered in dark brown pubic hair, was visible.
Completely naked, she did not immediately enter the spring. Still facing me, she opened her mouth.
"…May I enter?"
When I nodded, Hanna slowly walked into the spring. With a splashing sound, the emerald water wrapped around her smooth thighs and buttocks, rising past her narrow waist to just below her full breasts.
She no longer hid her body. She spread both arms wide, assuming a posture to receive mana throughout her entire body. Her wet shoulders, collarbone, and large breasts floated above the water. The blue light of the magic stones reflected off her wet skin, shining seductively.
It was completely different from before.
The mana of the spring no longer forced its way in. Instead, emerald mana rippled at her beckoning. The rough energy that had surged on the spring's surface was nowhere to be found; only a flow of mana remained, wrapping around her like a gentle river.
'Status Analysis.'
[Name: Hanna Mayer]
[Status: Mana Awakening complete. Internal mana circulation stabilized. Body reconstructed into a mana-optimized state.]
[Emotions: Regret that this is the end, a strong desire for the Lieutenant, an inescapable shame mixed with a strange excitement.]
[Hidden Trait: Mana Detection (Awakening Complete)]
The (Awakening Complete) marker had appeared. She had finally succeeded.
How much time had passed? The light surrounding her gradually subsided. Hanna exhaled deeply and leaned her body against the spring's edge. Then she slowly walked out of the water.
She no longer tried to cover her body. Water droplets pooled in her collarbone before flowing down the valley of her prominently raised breasts. Her nipples stood erect in the cold air, and her pubic hair, darkened by the water.
I couldn't tear my eyes away from the sight, only coming to my senses when she approached right in front of me.
Her gaze slowly traveled down from my face… and stopped at one particular spot.
At the thing straining against my military trousers, blood rushing into it so hard it stood stiffly erect, head held high.
Her face flushed bright red in an instant. But she didn't avert her eyes. Instead, she asked,
"…Lieutenant. Is that… because of me?"
I couldn't say anything. I had suspected Hanna's state, but hadn't expected her to approach so boldly.
"……."
However she interpreted my silence, Hanna slowly knelt before me. Her trembling hand reached for my buckle.
"Corporal Mayer… what are you doing right now…"
The buckle came undone, and my pants zipper slid down. Hanna's hand moved up over my underwear, wrapping around my burning hot cock.
"Please… let me take responsibility."
[Skill 'Indomitable Mind' is active.]
[Suppressing unnecessary emotional agitation and inducing the most efficient thought process.]
[Indomitable Mind] was suppressing my impulses, but the blood rushed to my lower body showed no signs of subsiding. I rationalized. Fraternization within the unit was highly likely to be punished.
'But it's fine if we don't get caught.'
Once I thought that, all hesitation vanished. There was no reason to endure from the start. What reason would I have to refuse when our squad's beauty of a squad leader was offering to blow me?
I silently stroked Hanna's head. Taking that as permission, Hanna's hand moved to the top of my underwear. She grabbed the band and pulled it down without hesitation.
With a soft *thud*, my cock sprang free, radiating intense heat. The blue-veined shaft and the glans glistening with pre-cum were starkly revealed beneath the blue light of the magic stones.
"……Huh?"
Hanna's eyes widened in disbelief. Her gaze swept over my cock from glans to base. The pure shock of a virgin who had never been with a man was plainly written on her face.
Hanna's breathing grew even more ragged. She swallowed dryly, then carefully… as if handling a sacred object, wrapped both hands around my cock.
Then she raised her head and met my eyes.
"Lieutenant… I… I've never done this before…"
Hanna spoke with a face that looked like she might burst into tears from shame.
"…Please forgive me if I make mistakes."
Soon, her red lips parted slightly and her wet tongue darted out.
"Ha-ahp…♡"
The sensation of her licking the tip of my glans made me jerk my hips without thinking.
A lewd *slurp* echoed through the cavern. She awkwardly took my glans into her mouth. A heat contrasting with the cold cave air enveloped my cock.
'Status Analysis.'
[Emotions: Shame about to burst, intense curiosity and excitement toward the unknown act, immoral satisfaction at accepting the Lieutenant's.]
Because it was her first time, everything was clumsy. Occasionally her teeth bumped against the shaft. She had no technique. She merely stuck out her tongue to tickle the tip of my glans and cautiously sucked with her lips.
But her tongue gradually grew bolder. From time to time, she pressed the sensitive ridge beneath my glans firmly with her tongue-tip, or circled it to stimulate me.
"Chu-wap, chu-eup…♡"
Wet sounds filled the cavern. Her mouth was unbelievably hot and soft. Hanna repeatedly tightened and loosened her entrance around my cock. I felt a tingling sensation spreading down to my thighs.
I looked down. Wet brown hair clung to her cheeks. Her round eyes gazed at my cock, shame and desire intermingled.
I reached my hand behind her head. When I gripped her soft hair, Hanna's shoulders trembled. I held her head and slowly moved my hips.
"U-uep…!"
A stifled cry burst from Hanna's mouth as I thrust into the back of her throat. Tears welled up in her eyes, but there was no resistance. Instead, Hanna desperately tried to open her throat to accept me, matching my movements.
"Haa, haa… I'm at my limit."
It felt like all the blood in my body was rushing to my lower half.
"Hanna… I'm going to cum."
Hanna's movements paused briefly. Then, as if determined to take every last drop, she embraced my waist more tightly and opened her mouth wider. Her hot mouth intensely constricted my cock.
I couldn't endure anymore. Putting strength into the hand gripping her head, I thrust my hips deeply one last time.
"Kk-euk, kk-euk…!"
Semen spurted deep into her throat. Hanna's body trembled. The semen filled her mouth and overflowed, trickling down from the corner of her lips as white fluid.
I slowly withdrew my cock. A sticky silver thread of mixed semen and saliva stretched between the tip of my glans and her lips. Hanna coughed, yet *gulp*—swallowed everything in her mouth.
With a flushed face, she looked up at me, and I silently pushed her body back. Hanna was laid down on top of the military uniform discarded on the floor. Her ample breasts, narrow waist, and dark brown pubic hair were clearly exposed.
I positioned myself between her legs and knelt. Realizing my intent, she averted her gaze shyly, yet spread her legs on her own.
Beneath her wet pubic hair, pink inner flesh shamefully revealed itself. Perhaps excited by the act just before, her entrance was already glistening with arousal, pitifully tightening.
I gently ran my fingers over her wet labia.
"H-hieut…!"
Her body shivered. I aligned my glans with her hot entrance. And without hesitation, pushed my hips forward.
