Chapter Title: Yuno's Coming-of-Age Ceremony (2)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
"Wh-what? What was that just now?"
"Was that His Highness the Third Prince?"
"No... more importantly, did we actually survive? Right?"
"I really thought we were goners..."
While the Imperial Guard Knights rejoiced at having survived, Viscount Spier and Katrin Aragon rushed underground.
"Yuno!"
"Your Highness the Third Prince! Are you all right? What in the world was that just now?"
"Huh... Master? Viscount Spier?"
In the underground chamber they burst into, Yuno—who had just completed his Body Change—stood naked, at a complete loss for what to do.
Clap!
"Ah! I forgot that my clothes burn up completely during Body Change? I didn't prepare a change of clothes? Hohoho."
"Oh no! Please wait just a moment, Your Highness. I'll be right back."
Viscount Spier hurried out to fetch some clothes, leaving Katrin to approach Yuno.
"You rascal! Congratulations once again on reaching the true Master realm! How did you know to unleash that Aura Blade? And was that even an Aura Blade? The power was..."
"Uh... I don't really know either. The moment I woke up, I suddenly sensed an incredibly dangerous energy coming from above, so I instinctively wrapped mana around my fist and swung it. What exactly happened?"
"I don't know either. I was guarding you all night and dozed off for a second when suddenly a massive amount of mana condensed, and that ultra-high-level magic came flying in. Looked like Hellfire, but there's no mage in the empire right now capable of wielding Hellfire... Someone who hates seeing you become a Master must be behind it."
Yuno had a rough idea of who it might be, but he kept it to himself and just gave a wry smile.
"I... I see... Anyway, thank you, Master. Thanks to your teachings, this disciple was able to reach the Master realm at such a young age. I'll never forget this favor for the rest of my life."
As Yuno bowed politely, Katrin's face flushed bright red. His manhood was fully exposed while he bowed.
"I... I get it, so put that hideous thing away already! Good grief~ I thought you were just a big overgrown kid... How is it that big...?"
At Katrin's words, Yuno glanced down, then blushed furiously and turned away.
Just then, the door suddenly flew open, and someone entered.
Assuming it was Viscount Spier with the clothes, Yuno happily turned around to receive them—only to freak out again and cover his lower half with his hands.
"Yuno~~~ Are you oka... Eek!"
"Oppa~~~ Are you all right? Your body is... Whoa~~~"
Who had entered the separate palace training hall were none other than Yuria, Isabella, Eliza, and Marie. Though Yuno covered himself again, the sight of his exposed manhood was seared into their minds.
'Oh my... How much bigger has Yuno's thing gotten...? The sensation from before is still so vivid... It was utter bliss back then, and now it's even larger♥ Aah... If only I could have that cock just once... Yuria, you crazy bitch!! What the hell are you thinking?! Yuno is your son!'
'Wh-what? Why is Yuno's dick that huge? Am I gonna die taking that thing later? Ugh... I don't wanna go down in history as the princess who died having sex with her little brother... But the maids say the bigger a guy's dick, the better it feels... I wonder how good that would feel?'
'Oppa~ Did it get that big the moment he saw Marie? Hehe, just wait a little, Oppa♥ Marie will come pick you up soon... Hoho.'
'Aah, Yuno, you're so cool♥ I love you, Yuno... Your body really is perfect in every way. It got even bigger down there after the Body Change? Hehe, I see Yuno every day, but it's been a while since I saw you fully naked—feels so good~'
The four women each had wildly different thoughts, but they all shared one thing: they'd stored the image of Yuno's naked body deep in their minds.
A moment later, Viscount Spier returned with clothes, and Yuno quickly dressed before heading over to them and Katrin.
"Yuno, congratulations on becoming a Master. Mommy is so happy... I never dreamed my son would grow up this splendidly... And they say Body Change erases all scars—it's true! I'm so relieved. Do you know how heartbroken Mommy was seeing those scars on your body? And your body was so bulky before... Now you've got such a perfectly sculpted physique."
At Yuria's words, Yuno lifted his shirt slightly to inspect himself. Just as she said, all his scars were gone, and his bulging muscles had vanished too. Yet he felt far stronger than before, brimming with energy, so he made a mental note to ask his master about it later.
"Yeah. At least the scars are gone— that's a relief."
"But don't think getting stronger means you can act recklessly. Got it?"
"Mom, don't worry about danger. Thanks to Master, my body is incredibly tough now? Even if a blade cuts me, I won't be in any..."
"Yuno!! Don't you understand what Mommy is saying?"
Yuno flinched at Yuria suddenly using formal speech. She always spoke casually to her children, but when she was truly angry, she switched to polite language.
"Y... yes, Mom. I'll be super careful."
With Yuria appeased and stepping back, the princesses and Eliza swarmed Yuno with congratulations. As his greatly grown sisters and childhood friend pressed their bodies against him, Yuno panicked and did his utmost not to get erect. Unaware of his predicament, the women were simply thrilled at his growth.
Watching Yuno's family, Katrin suddenly clapped her hands to get their attention.
"All right~ Your Majesty the Empress Dowager and Your Highnesses? I'm grateful you're celebrating my disciple's achievement... but first, I need to examine Yuno's body. If you could please step out, we also need to investigate what happened with the attack on this palace."
At Katrin's words, Isabella, Marie, and Eliza's eyes gleamed fiercely.
"Oh right. I forgot because I was so happy Yuno's safe. Whoever it is... they'd better abandon any thoughts of an easy death? How dare they touch my little brother?"
"Yeah! Sis! Marie will help with Sallist and Undine. We can do firebranding or water torture— just leave it to us!"
"...If it involves blades, leave it to me. I'll tear their flesh to shreds while minimizing blood loss."
Their ferocity made even Spier—who had just reached Master—flinch. He bowed deeply, vowing to hunt down the culprit with all his might, then escorted them back to the empress dowager's palace.
"Phew~ What a madhouse. Anyway, Master, thank you again. Without you, I'd still be stuck at low-grade knight level."
"They say excessive humility is no virtue. Even without me, you would've made it somehow. In fact, your training was far harsher than what I endured. You pushed through it and reached the Master realm. I'm truly proud of you, Yuno."
Katrin pulled Yuno into a tight hug.
Though his master, she was young to begin with, and reaching the Master realm had halted her aging. With the fresh look of a woman in her early twenties, her youthful allure blended with mature sensuality, stirring Yuno.
'Ugh!! I can't get hard in Master's arms... Hold it together, Yuno!!'
With heroic willpower, Yuno barely held back and began discussing his condition with Katrin.
"About that Aura Blade storm you asked earlier... I don't really know... When I came to, I sensed something threatening flying at me, so I just concentrated mana in my hand and swung."
"Then do it again like before. Let's see how mu—"
BOOM!!
Before Katrin could finish, Yuno gathered Aura Blade energy and punched, unleashing a storm of similar devastating power.
This time, thankfully aimed at the underground training hall wall, it only shattered the wall and slightly caved the ground—but Katrin's expression darkened.
"What is this...? Don't tell me you can't control the power right now?"
"Uh... I only gathered a tiny bit of power, but it came out like that. And my body feels overflowing with energy... Ngh..."
"I need to check your condition. Sit cross-legged!"
Katrin placed her hand on Yuno's back and infused mana.
'Ngh... What is this massive mana clump...? The mana lumps in his limbs aren't circulating properly through his body. Looks like during the final Body Change stage, he sensed the threat and unleashed Aura Blade explosively, causing a mana rampage. It seems overflowing with vitality now, but it's dangerously unstable.'
When Katrin withdrew her hand, Yuno turned around. Seeing her grim face, his own expression clouded slightly.
"Master? Is something wrong...?"
At Yuno's question, Katrin explained his current physical state.
"So what should I do?"
"This is a first for me too, so I'm not certain... but there's a method worth trying. It's originally a rite our school performs when a disciple becomes independent from their master... Well, you've reached Master, so you could call it independence."
"A rite...?"
At Yuno's question, Katrin unusually blushed and cleared her throat.
"Ahem... In our school, on the day a disciple becomes independent, the master stimulates the disciple's Mana Core with their own to increase mana capacity and improve flow. It should help you too, with your disrupted circulation."
Yuno's face flushed at the explanation.
"M-Master? As you know, my Mana Core is in my... testicles..."
Thwack!!
As Yuno grew embarrassed, Katrin flicked his forehead hard.
"Hey! How dare you interpret a sacred rite that way? My Mana Core is in these huge breasts, just like my master's was, and I received the transmission while she rubbed them! So you have no reason to be ashamed!!"
But Katrin's face was beet red too, leaving Yuno grumbling inwardly.
'Master's embarrassed herself but yelling at me... Tch...'
As Yuno pouted with his flushed face refusing to cool, Katrin explained in more detail.
"We're not touching skin-to-skin anyway—just through cloth—so don't be so embarrassed! Come on, drop your pants."
Katrin unbuttoned her outer garment, her massive breasts bouncing into view. Though covered by her breastplate, their sheer presence couldn't be fully concealed, turning Yuno's face even redder.
"M-Master..."
"Hurry up! Don't we need to normalize your body as soon as possible?"
As Yuno hesitated, Katrin jiggled her breasts to urge him on. Finally, he dropped his pants, approaching in just his underwear.
Yuno swallowed hard. His master's enormous breasts trembled right before his eyes, demanding every ounce of his focus to resist the temptation.
