The Divine Summoner: Godson of Altima

by Antony W. F. Chow

"What are you doing?" Luka asked as he avoided staring at her twin peaks.

  Hanna lifted her left palm and showed him the glass vial. "This is a love potion." She uncorked the stopper and drank half the fluid in one gulp. She handed him the remainder and stared deep into his eyes. "I will devote my body and soul to you. Will you accept me as your woman?"

  Luka was fully aware of his maid's feelings of love toward him; it was evident how she took care of him. Occasionally, Luka pondered having Hanna as his mistress or concubine but never found time to pursue this matter with his mother.

  Luka realized his error because Hanna could not afford the love potion on her meager maid's wages. His mother must have passed it to Hanna. Also, Juliette was making an implicit demand: if Luka rejected Hanna, the duchess would dismiss her service.

  Since Luka appreciated Hanna's loyalty and assistance, he refused to let her go. Besides, the young master also felt a strong attraction to his exclusive maid, and Luka occasionally fantasized about taking her to bed. Hence, he could not let this chance go to waste!

  Luka calmly took the potion and drank it in one gulp. The young man felt his loins stir as the medicine began to take effect. Luka took Hanna in a princess carry and gently placed her on his bed.

  Hanna's body felt hot, and her master's touch made her sensitive. She spread her legs in an "M" shape and invited him to enter.

  Luka crawled onto his bed and slowly climbed on top of her. They began to kiss passionately as their bodies intertwined and rolled around.

  Her hands roamed his back while Luka kneaded her soft breasts. He cupped them and gently twisted her nipples, eliciting gasps from his victim.

  In response, Hanna's legs wrapped tightly around Luka's waist. She reached for his hard cock and guided it into her sweet spot. As it plunged deep inside and broke her hymen, she bit his right shoulder to embrace the pain.

  Luka felt hot, sticky fluid drip out of her and stopped moving immediately. He ignored the bite and stroked her hair to soothe her pain of losing her virginity.

  After a minute, she released his shoulder and rolled her tongue deep inside his mouth. Hanna's hips shook as she urged her lover to move.

  Luka obliged and began to ram his hot rod in and out like a runaway piston. The love potion gave him extra stamina, and he maintained his erection for hours. The bed rocked and shook the floorboard as Luka furiously made love.

  The couple reached orgasm a half dozen times before their youthful bodies expended their pent-up sexual desires.

  At dawn, Juliette quietly unlocked the door to Luka's bedroom with her master key. She entered and crept up to the bed while ignoring the pungent smell of cum.

  The mother saw Luka and Hanna naked and entangled. She nodded in satisfaction upon seeing the bedsheet soiled with bloodstains from Hanna giving her first time to Luka. Juliette placed a heavy blanket over their bodies.

  The mother had mixed emotions upon confirming that his son had lost his virginity at her behest. Juliette originally planned to have Luka learn about the bees and hives when he graduates from the academy.

  Aristocratic families customarily arrange for their sons to have experienced teachers before their wedding nights. Thus, Juliette did nothing wrong in pushing Hanna to have an affair with his son. And if Hanna ends up having a son, that would strengthen Juliette's hand with the church because the child would carry the divine Heavensfell bloodline.

  The duchess believed that the pope pressured the king to permit his daughter to become Luka's fiancée out of fear. If Luka chose to marry a demihuman as his official wife, citizens would regard this marriage as a rejection of human partners within the kingdom.

  Moreover, such fear wasn't farfetched considering Luka's popularity with the beastkin and demonkind at the academy. Also, Luka lived in an elvish village and became an Honorary Elf for his feat of eliminating the miasma threatening their new homeland. Thus, he could conceivably marry the elvish princess and build stronger ties with the elves as well. By pushing Luka to accept Hanna as a mistress, Juliette arguably preserved the human race's precious bloodline.

  While Juliette stood near the bed, Bel and Gripper slowly approached her. They generously gave up the mattress last night and watched Luka fornicate with his partner until the crack of dawn. Thus, their master overslept, and now the two animals were starving.

  Bel jumped into her chest and hugged the woman tightly. Gripper pulled on her shirt and gave her a pitiful stare.

  "Oh, you guys are hungry, right?" Juliette whispered. She carried the furry rabbit in her arms and quietly left the room with the gorilla following along.

  The duchess brought them to the dining hall and ordered the cook to give the pets their usual portions of meat. She drank a potent brew of coffee while watching the animals eat.

  When Juliette finished her drink, she motioned for James to approach. "Inform everyone not to disturb my son. And his exclusive maid is also excused from her work for today," the duchess ordered.

  The steward bowed. He walked out of the room and relayed her command to the head maid.

  The more astute people in the house started putting the clues together. Many of them heard the bed shaking and cries of joy from the young master's bedroom; they all knew what Luka was doing last night. But they were clueless as to the identity of his lucky partner.

  Duchess Silverblade's instructions helped solve this mystery. More importantly, the noblewoman gave her implicit approval for this affair. Therefore, the workers resolved to cozy up to Hanna and improve their relationship with the young master's new mistress.

  Some of the maids were jealous that Hanna caught Luka's eye and wished they were younger. The servants also began to explore ways to bring their daughters and nieces to meet Luka in hopes of catching his fancy.

  Spies embedded within the Heavensfell household began to disseminate this vital information to their handlers, and soon, Blanche learned this news and notified Princess Camellia.

  Luka's fiancée made a sour face and sighed. Camellia didn't expect the duchess to react immediately to her engagement with Luka. The princess didn't care that Luka cheated on her because Camellia understood that boys needed their sex toys. Her royal brothers engaged in similar behavior at the castle.

  The problem was that the princess must adhere to royal customs and maintain her purity until her wedding night. Thus, Camellia must use proxies to satisfy her fiance until then. "Pour us a cup of tea," she ordered.

  Leah quickly complied. She had a hot pot of camellia tea ready to serve because the princess enjoyed drinking a cup of her namesake tea throughout the day. Princess Camellia suffered bouts of dizziness as a young child, and the royal doctor recommended she drink this tea to alleviate those symptoms.

  Camellia followed the doctor's advice and eventually stopped suffering dizziness. From then on, the princess developed a daily habit of drinking the tea regularly every few hours. All four maids learned to brew the tea to suit her particular taste.

  The princess savored the hot tea because it brought comfort and helped increase her mental concentration. Camellia determined that she must have a loyal and reliable person accompany her fiance. Duchess Silverblade's machination made the princess realize her grave mistake in this regard.

  Camellia considered giving this task to one of her four maids but rejected it because Luka didn't bring his exclusive maid with him to the academy. Therefore, he would decline Camellia's offer of her maid even though Luka could use one for his expansive suite.

  However, he often traveled with a male escort on the school campus. Thus, Camellia decided to give him a second bodyguard out of her contingent of flower knights.

  The princess quickly settled on Orella to accompany her fiance. Camellia chose her for several reasons. The flower knight was a commoner; therefore, the nobles often harassed her with verbal abuse at the castle.

  Second, male chauvinistic pigs disregarded her strong martial ability due to her gender, and they mistreated her in t
he knighthood. Many noble sons sought her as a night companion or mistress. If Orella became Luka's exclusive knight, then she would be safe from these tormentors.

  Camellia placed her teacup on the table. "Summon Orella," she ordered.

  The flower knight had stood guard outside her room and soon entered. "What is your order, Your Highness?" Orella asked after she bent a knee and lowered her head.

  "Please rise, Orella," the princess replied. "Have a seat." After the knight sat on a sofa, Camellia began to talk. "You probably heard that we are now engaged to Luka Heavensfell, the heir of the Heavensfell duke family and the Godson of Altima."

  "Yes, Your Highness. Congratulations on being engaged to a fine, reputable man," the knight replied.

  Camellia's brows arched. "What do you know of him?" she inquired.

  "The young lord entered the royal academy as a co-valedictorian while acing the written portion of the admission test. He defeated a B-rank examiner and showed off his tremendous magic power during the practical exams. He led his elite class to the top of freshman grade during the field trip inside the Morninglory Dungeon."

  "Luka fought an exhibition match against Llewel Elorshin and won. The demonkind and beastkin regard him as one of their own, and he has a fan club at school. The only knock on Luka is that he is socially withdrawn and lacks close friends," Orella quickly recited from memory.

  "And why are you so well informed about Luka?"

  Orella saluted. "I am your flower knight and responsible for your safety. To discharge this duty properly, I must become alert to all possible threats at the academy. If Luka Heavensfell ever decides to rebel against the king, he would make a formidable enemy. My heart is thrilled to learn that you will marry him," she explained.

  Camellia grinned like a cat, and the knight immediately felt a sense of doom. "Our fiance just started an affair with his exclusive maid. This princess fears that Luka would soon seek other bedroom partners. We require someone trustworthy to watch over him, and this princess decided that you are perfect for this assignment."

  Orella immediately dropped to her knees. "Your Highness! Please don't abandon me!" she pleaded.

  The princess reached out with her hand to caress the warrior's cheek. "You're mistaken. We are entrusting our future husband to you. In our name as a member of the Morninglory royal family, we command you to protect Luka Heavensfell. This duty extends to sharing his bed at night -- do you understand our meaning?" Camellia glared at her.

  Orella stood up and saluted. "I hear and obey! I will depart at once!"

  Camellia raised a hand, and the maids blocked her path. "You don't need to leave now. We will hand you over to Luka when we see him in school. In the meantime, this princess will lend you some instructional guides on how to pleasure a man," she grinned.

  Orella trembled with fear. "Yes, Your Highness."

  Chapter 103

  Second Semester (Part 1)

  Luka entered the school grounds with a sense of relief. The past two months were extremely tumultuous. While he expected to serve his church apprenticeship quietly during the winter break, Luka somehow made powerful enemies within the organization.

  Although he accomplished his goal of revitalizing the Izan province, the heir had a hunch that the land would face more difficulties in the future. Moreover, his engagement with Princess Camellia might bring more trouble to him than benefits. Thus, Luka hoped that his return to the royal academy would provide a brief respite from his problems.

  Luka just walked past the front gate when someone accosted him. Luka saw a woman with straight, raven hair, dark brown eyes, and a tense-looking face wearing a full suit of chainmail armor missing the helmet. Her equipment was dyed red, and Luka immediately recognized the person as a flower knight serving his fiancée. "Does Camellia have a message for me?" Luka gamely guessed the warrior's intention.

  "Her Highness wishes to see you. Please follow me," the knight requested with a salute. She turned sharply on her heels and marched straight toward her liege.

  Princess Camellia stood under a tree. A maid held a parasol to shade her body from the sunlight. The royalty motioned with her hand for him to come closer. When he obliged, she looped her right arm through his left. "This princess missed you, darling!" Camellia said in a loud voice as she kissed both his cheeks in greeting.

  The students gawked at the couple and began to gossip. "I heard they just got engaged!" "No way!" "What a lucky bastard!" "Is he going to become our next king?"

  Luka frowned because he realized that his fiancée was purposedly making a scene for the students to spread the news of their new relationship. "Are you done?" he asked in a stern voice.

  Camellia giggled childishly and stuck out her tongue. She pulled his arm, and the two walked across campus while shaded by the maid's parasol.

  Luka accompanied her until he reached the hallway. "My homeroom is that way," he pointed out.

  His fiancée pouted as she released him reluctantly. "From now on, Orella will be your escort. This princess is worried that other girls will try to seduce you; our flower knight will stop them on our behalf." Camellia drew closer and whispered in his ear. "This fiancée knows you're having an affair with Hanna. You may use Orella for a threesome." She saw his blush and felt satisfied at his loss of composure. "Let's meet up for lunch!"

  Luka felt a hand gently shove his back toward his homeroom. "Okay," he agreed reluctantly. He entered the classroom with exasperation.

  His classmates exploded into applause and hollering. "Congratulations on your engagement!"

  Luka waved his hand in acknowledgment and quietly sat in his seat. He groaned inwardly as the students mobbed him. "When did this happen?" "Who made the first move?" "How far have you gone with the princess?"

  The last question earned Wickkuil a slap from Terrwyn. "I will NOT permit any rumor besmirching Princess Camellia's chastity!" the class rep declared with a raised fist.

  The other boys in the room quickly closed their mouths. They forgot that Terrwyn was the second princess' best friend. If their insults to Camellia reach the king's ears, the monarch could declare lèse-majesté and execute the offenders. Thus, Terrwyn held their lives in the palm of her hand!

  Terrwyn noticed their fear and grinned. "Go back to your seats!" she growled.

  The male students quickly went back as if their lives depended on it.

  When the class representative turned around to face Luka, she felt awkward. Her father once broached the subject of a political marriage with the Heavensfell family, but Terrwyn rejected it.

  She didn't expect Camellia to leap at the chance or that the king would allow it. Terrwyn assumed that the Divine Church of Light blessed this union; thus, she couldn't object to the engagement without offending the powerful organization. "Congratulations on your engagement, Luka," she said politely.

  "Thank you, Terrwyn. I know that Camellia is your best friend, and you are worried about her treatment. Frankly, she was the one who pursued this marriage, and I'm not privy to the reasons behind it," Luka admitted honestly.

  Terrwyn nodded in sympathy. She knew that Camellia was calculative and rarely revealed her true motivations to others. The princess became this way due to her mother's influence.

  The homeroom teacher entered the classroom, and Terrwyn quickly returned to her seat.

  Tannyll surveyed the room to confirm that no student was absent. "Welcome back, everyone! I hope you had a wonderful winter break because the second semester will be much more challenging. All of you possess the talent to be here in the Elite Class, but the other students are working hard to kick you out. Whether you remain here or not until you graduate will depend solely on your efforts."

  "This semester's schedule remains the same. You'll have a field trip to the Morninglory dungeon in four weeks, followed by mid-terms and then semester finals. The dungeon setup will be completely different from your last visit, so you need to practice and improve your teamwork beforehand. You will receive one class a
llotment at the training grounds, but the other practice sessions will depend on your private arrangement." The teacher gave Luka a knowing look.

  "Okay, that's the end of my homeroom announcements. See you later!" Tannyll chirped and strolled out of the room.

  The classmates all turned around to look at Luka.

  "Yes, you can visit my shadow realm for afterschool practice," he agreed.

  "I will go over the scenarios we should train as a party," Terrwyn added.

  The students groaned because she possessed a fiendish mind in conjuring ridiculous terrains and situations for the class to overcome during their training sessions.

  The first teacher entered and began his lecture on history.

  When the class finally broke for lunch, they saw a commotion in the hallway. "How could you engage with someone else? I won't allow it!" a male voice shouted.

  Luka felt someone grab his arm and pull him toward the fight. He saw the red armor and recognized Orella immediately.

  "You need to step in and defend your fiancée," the flower knight growled. Although Orella wished to leave her post outside Luka's classroom and intervene on Camellia's behalf, the knight couldn't abandon her duty to guard him. Thus, Orella decided to prod the fiance to do it in her stead. Besides, the fight broke out due to his engagement. Therefore, Luka must publicly defend himself to save his noble pride.

  Luka saw a senior student glaring at Princess Camellia. He stood even taller than Luka and possessed the muscular physique of a warrior. The upperclassman had a beak nose and neatly combed, light-brown hair; also, he seemed to be a noble.

  When Camellia saw Luka standing nearby, the girl rushed over to his side and squeezed his arm between her breasts. "This princess is glad that you're here, darling! That creep is demanding that the cancellation of our engagement!" Camellia complained and pouted.

  "I'm very hurt at being labeled a 'creep,' Camellia. I'm your childhood friend, and we made a pinky promise to marry. How can you break our engagement?" the boy protested.

  "I'm Luka Heavensfell, a freshman. And you are?"
