Into the fields of Summer - 88. The Platinum Prince 3

Victor was already waiting for me in our room when I got back from the testing room.

“How was your day, babe?” He asked with such a heart warming smile.

I huffed and slowly made my way towards him and embraced him. I’d learned a lot in the Hall of Maktar and unearthed more questions than answers in the testing center.

“It’s been a long day” I replied. “Days actually...”

“How was it?” Victor pulled back from our hug, he looked at me with such longing and loving eyes. He clearly knew that something was bothering me. “Mind sharing? I think something’s bothering you”

I flopped down in our bed and Victor followed suit. “It’s just...everything’s happening so fast...I was in the Hall of Maktar for 5 days and learned a lot...then...*sigh* Patri brought me to the testing center...”

“Testing center?”

“Yeah...you know...similar to the ones you guys passed through on your first day here to check your biometrics and power levels...” I let my voice trail off.

“And...?” Victor sat straight against the bed and curiously asked me to explain more.

“And...the results have been rather unusual”

“Unusual in what sense, Chris? Though from what we’ve all been through so far... you’ve always been far from usual” Victor said with a slight laugh as he pulled me closer to him to stroke my back to comfort me.

“I just...I just want to be normal you know...and I’ve been far from normal since my powers started showing themselves”

“Come here...” Victor said as he pulled me tighter into his embrace. “I know this is not what you want to hear but...I will say it anyway...Chris, you may not have wanted to have such power”

I gave him a stern look.

“Don’t give me that look, Chris...listen, you know you’re powerful and you just keep on denying it...I mean...multiple elements, platinum level, goes through the barriers of the realm without a portal...the clues have not been that subtle , Chris. I know this isn’t what you expected to be going through a few years ago when you were thinking about where you’d be when you were 18...but it is what it is, and believe me...I am confident that you’ll be able to find a great use for your powers and I believe your Patri feels the same way as well.”

“It’s just...it’s just too much you know” I sighed...my voice cracking as if I was about to cry, somehow the emotional whirlwind and maybe the physical toll of the ascension and the lessons have started catching up with me.

“Chris... look at me”

Victor said as he put both of his hands on my face to straighten my gaze towards his green eyes. “I’ll be here for you, okay? Your family will be here for you no matter what...you won’t be going through this alone...it’s always going to be you, me, your dad, your Patri, and everybody else. We trust you and we seriously have faith in you!”

“But...” I started to complain.

“No buts” Victor warned me.

I gave out a weak whimper as my boyfriend pulled me in close for a kiss, which I gladly returned, the sensual kissing lead to groping and a few minutes later...naked bodies.

Instead of the aggressive and needy fuckings I’ve been demanding from Victor recently, this time we took it slow, this time we were making love.

“Bite me...drink from me” I whispered to him.

My boyfriend gladly complied and slowly sank his fangs on my neck, the sensation of which enveloped me... it was as if I could feel myself inside him as he drank from me, Victor drank slowly and took his time, making sure to only give me pleasure instead of pain.

Victor penetrated me as he lapped on my neck sealing the bite with his saliva. He kissed me as he sank his cock in me, I tasted the sweetness of my blood in his mouth, damn did I taste good.

Victor’s touch was tender and so was mine, we lost track of time but I know we ended that night satiated, our bond to each other renewed.

—-

Victor was already awake when I opened my eyes, he was facing me and looking at my face.

“You’re beautiful” he whispered.

“And so are you” I smiled back.

“Ready for breakfast?” He asked.

“Yeah...” I replied, my voice raspy.

We took a shower together, no sex but a lot of touching and groping as we washed each other’s bodies.

Victor and I got changed, and I ended up with another pair of red and gold accented jackets while Victor had a gray jacket with black accents.

When we got to the dining area, around half of the group was already there, Patrick, Stefano, Lucy, Erica, Leo, and August were already eating. While Etalos was making sure the servants kept the table full.

“How was yesterday?” Leo teased, he knew I spent five days inside the hall.

“Argh...don’t remind me about it, the professors kept drilling and drilling me with facts and theories and stuff”

“Hmm...don’t complain. I know you like it” he grinned at me.

“Well...I did learn quite a lot” I grinned back, Leo knew me so well, despite my ministrations I actually did enjoy my lessons. “So what did you guys do yesterday?” I asked.

“We just went around the capital... visited some sights and pretended to be some elf tourists from the provinces” Leo said.

“Lucy here spent a fortune buying clothes” Patrick teased Lucy.

“But the dresses were so nice!”

Lucy defended herself as she smiled at me.

“Reza and Konrad went back to the arts district yesterday... they certainly have taken a liking to elvish crafts” Stefano added.

“So what are the plans for today?” I asked to no one in particular.

Etalos answered and said “You have your meeting with the ministers after lunch...while Leo and your father will have a testing and preliminary session with Mage apprentices”

I raised my eyebrows towards a beaming Leo. “They’re following through with your dad’s and my results... since we both registered as a Copper they think we both have magic potential...”

“Wow... that’s good Leo!” I said.

“The rest will have some sparring sessions with some of the Royal guards as well” Etalos added.

“Huh?” I was confused.

“We love the capital and all Chris...but we don’t want to get rusty” Patrick explained.

“Ohh...I see”

Luca then walked in with Reza and Konrad. My boyfriend’s sire then added.

“And we’re all excited to see some elemental magic...it’s been so long, and back in our times it was already such a rare occasion for elves to show their true skills to non elves”

“Really?” I asked.

“Yes... the elves have pretty much kept most of their powers and abilities a secret”

“Wow... I did not know that”

“So... you can understand how excited we are to see our friends here spar with some silver and gold level guards” Konrad said as he took a bite out of his Taka bread.

“I for one am excited to spar with an earth elf” Konrad added.

“While I’m looking forward to spar with a water elf” Luca said.

Dad and the rest of the crew joined us for breakfast a few minutes later, dad seemed nervous about his session with the apprentices, I walked over toward him and rubbed his back “you’ll be fine dad... it’s just magic”

“But...”

“How bad can it be?” I winked at him then added “show them what you got pops” I grinned.

—-

After breakfast, Victor and I decided to go back to our room and watch some tv. We ended up glancing through some news and the coverage was about my Ascension.

It was Retasa on air and she was asking a representative from the palace on when I’ll be making my first public appearance.

“But he is third in line to the throne... don’t you think the people ought to know how he looks? I for one caught a glimpse of him during the Ascension and the banquet, he is quite the looker” Retasa said to the female elf representative of the palace.

“His Highness is still adjusting, we ask the public for their understanding given the circumstances that we’re facing”

“Yes...we know a little of his circumstances the Prince grew up in earth and has apparently brought an entourage of people from earth, which is a first by the way”

“I can confirm that the Prince did bring close friends to his Ascension” the spokeswoman said.

“We understand the prince is still adjusting... but various experts from private institutions have made power readings during the Ascension... and the results were off the charts... surely such a powerful prince must be introduced to his people, am I right?” Retasa pushed on.

“Yes, the palace agrees with that opinion, however at this moment, the prince and the royal family would like to request for more privacy”

“The public won’t be patient for long” Retasa added.

“We understand that”

I looked at Victor with a worried expression. “Do you think I have to introduce myself to the public?!” I asked.

“Chris...well...your Ascension was record breaking, and you’re royalty, I’m not sure how elves do it, but I think it’s wise to consult your grandfather and the rest of your family regarding this, but in my opinion...it’s just a matter of time before they figure out who you are, so it’s going to be a matter of whom you’ll allow to control the narrative when you go public? The media? Or you?”

*sigh*

I changed the channel and the show was about the preliminary results of scientific studies of the amount of energy my Ascension has released.

“Oh god...it’s been two days, they’re still talking about me?”

“Well... you can’t blame them, ascensions are very rare to begin with, and to witness or at least feel one so powerful must have really gotten the public excited about you”

“Was it really that powerful?” I asked.

Victor gave me one of his signature looks that basically said ‘you’ve got to be kidding me’

“Are you serious? I think the whole realm felt it, everyone in the Hall did and it was far from subtle”

—-

Lunch was delicious as expected and we all chatted and looked forward to the day ahead, well, me not so much as I had a series of meetings to attend to, but I really couldn’t say no to Patri.

At around an hour after lunch, Etalos escorted me to the Celestial Palace or the administrative palace, he ushered me past some guards and bureaucrats into a meeting room.

The room was large and had a long mahogany table in the middle.

Paintings of nature and animals hung on one side of while the other wall was filled with large windows that allowed sunlight inside. A large chandelier flanked by two smaller ones also provided lighting for the already well lit room.

On one side of the table were August, Reza, Konrad, and Luca. On the other were the elves, Pesaya, Yal, Zenfar, Uncle Rehanmir, King Ethnar, King ZoHal, Jetan, myself, and Yelindra

Jetan is the head of Akros, a handsome Sokodeya elf with light brown eyes, dark wavy hair and a muscular build. He had an athletic body and looked to be in his mid thirties.

Pesaya and Yelindra were representatives from the High Court, or the equivalent of the Supreme Court of the realm. Pesaya is Hegodeya and had mortician features, while Yelindra is Heradeya and had fair Anatolian features. Both elves had dark long wavy hair, and both looked to be in their late thirties, both women had slim builds and were very beautiful.

Reza started the meeting by thanking Patri for granting his request for an audience.

Then the discussion went through the Anami incident back at August’s estate and for the next hour or so theories as to the motives of the enemy as well as a thorough discussion of the possibility that more incidents involving demon magic will come in future.

“Your Majesty...if I may be so bold, the vampires... “ Reza then looked at August “and I think the werewolves would appreciate your cooperation regarding this matter...if the demons are indeed back, we have to face them together”

“I agree with you Reza, there are more questions than answers regarding this... but we thought we had dealt with the demons centuries ago, and now we are faced with the possibility of their return... this cant be allowed to happen” Patri said.

“The demons died out between the 1370s and 1380s or at least the weaker ones... that’s all the records say... “ King Ethnar added, he paused then spoke again “We all know that the demons were already weak by then as all of their commanders and generals had disappeared a decade beforehand”

“What we know so far is that the demons rely on the energy of their generals to live, cut them off from them and then they’d start to become weak, in a few years they’d start to die or be weak enough for us to easily eliminate” Zenfar said.

“Does this mean that a General is alive now?” Luca asked.

“That’s a possibility” King Ethnar answered. “I was already King when the demons started to weaken...it was through the cooperation of the vampires, werewolves, and even human armies of that time that we were able to hunt the demons down...but the reason why their generals ceased to give them their strength is a mystery...a mystery that we took for granted at that time, and a mystery that the lack of resolution to solve has come back to haunt us centuries later”

“Does this mean that one of the generals has been alive all this time for Gustav to have kept his Anami form for centuries?” Uncle Rehanmir asked.

“That’s a possibility we cannot ignore, however we’re not yet sure if an Anami is reliant on the energy of a general or can simply survive on its own, especially with it being a different kind of creature...we’re not sure if they’re linked to the generals as well or if the fragment of demon soul inside them is already enough to keep them alive” Zenfar said.

“Are demons substantially stronger than the Anami?” I asked.

“Yes...” King Ethnar answered bitterly, remembering a time when the Demons still roamed the earth. “A normal demon is at least upper silver to lower gold level... anamis are usually lower silver level but the one you fought back on earth was an aberration...it was easily a gold level... to have an Anami be that strong is rather uncommon” King Ethnar explained.

“So the generals are stronger?”

I asked.

“Yes...easily at least Higher Gold Level to Platinum”

“Damn” I muttered.

“One thing that the demons have against themselves is that they have always been few in numbers”

“What do you mean?” Luca asked.

“When they still were out in the open... there was never a time that there numbers exceeded a few thousand... it appears that their procreation process is rather tedious and it can be assumed that they need to be linked to a general...and a general can only be linked to so many...so basically their numbers are limited by the number of generals they have”

“Ohh...I see...should we worry about an Anami army then?”

“We should look out for it...but a large army of Anami is unlikely as a demon would need to impart a sliver of itself to a corruptible creature to make an Anami...there’s a limit to the number of creatures a demon can infect... if they over exert themselves and split their souls too much...they die”

“Hmm...ok, I get it” Konrad mused.

“So what do we do now?” August asked.

“Here’s what I’m proposing” King ZoHal started. “We can make the existence of the elves known again to the vampires and werewolves, to a limited extent... just to the Vampire High Council and Werewolf Crescent Council and governors and clan alphas in the areas where we have portals”

“I think we can work with that” Reza replied.

“Then... we push for a more detailed and formal meeting with the rest of your councils” Patri said.

“What do you mean?” Luca asked.

“A meeting between the VHC, WCC, and a delegation from our end” Patri replied.

“I can’t speak yet for the entire Crescent Council but I think that can be arranged” August said.

“Luca and I can’t speak for the VHC just yet but it’s highly likely the VHC will be more than happy to meet with an elvish delegation” Reza spoke.

“And what of the Anami threat?” Konrad asked.

“For the mean time...we can work on intelligence sharing between the three governments...Yal will be your main person for that...and cooperation in training as well between Stratos and Akros and the members of the Werewolf Council, Jetan as Chief of Akros and Prince Rehanmir as Minister of Civil Security will handle that” Patri said.

“Hmm...that’s indeed favorable, there’s a lot to be gained if we train with each other” Luca mused.

“However it is important that the secrecy of the realm is protected” Yelindra insisted.

“I cannot agree more, I think the rest of the supernatural populace and the humans as well, are not yet ready to know of the return of the elves” Uncle Rehanmir said in agreement with the High Court judge.

“We can assure you that this will be treated with the utmost level of confidentiality on our part” Reza assured the elves.

“Same with me” August piped in.

“So how do we move forward?” Luca asked.

“In line with the resumption of relations between elves and the other supernatural races...” King ZoHal said then paused. “I am appointing Prince Christopher as the Elvish Ambassador to the Vampires and Werewolves”

I looked at Patri dumbstruck. Did I just hear what he just said?

Yal gave me a knowing smile while Uncle Rehanmir winked at me.

“Huh?”

“I believe you’re the Ambassador to Earth” King Ethnar piped in with mischief in his eyes.

“Chris...I am trusting you with this role, I believe you are in the best position to be the bridge between the various races”

“I’m sorry, what?”

Patri just continued and then added “and you’re the only one that doesn’t need to use the portals to go back and forth between worlds...coursing information and messages through you would be ideal”

Pesaya and Yelindra exchanged glances with the revelation that I don’t need the portals, seems like that’s quite an impressive feat based on the surprised look on their faces.

“Me...Ambassador?” I croaked.

Luca then piped in and spoke “I am more than happy to work with Prince Christopher as ambassador” his eyes full of pride and what’s that? Is that a hint of mischief? Oh he was seriously enjoying me squirming.

“I am too” August added.

“No complaints here...we’re more than excited and happy to work with his highness as ambassador” Reza chimed in.

Wait...did they all just push me into a corner I can’t escape? Fuck.

“With this...when everybody’s back on Earth, Prince Christopher will be the eyes and ears of the realm, any concerns, questions, or requests you have please direct them to the ambassador” Patri added.

*gulp*

“Most likely we can have the meeting with the VHC in either London or New York?” Patri asked.

“That can be arranged either city is fine with the VHC” Reza said.

“Same for the WCC” August added.

“In the meantime, we can have Zenfar and Sarad discuss with you the basics of Anami biology, this might help you should you encounter them the next time around” Patri added.

“Although I heard you can just hit them with lightning” King Ethnar chuckled.

“If only everyone could summon lightning that easily” August laughed a bit.

“We’ll continue to look into what little information we have on the demons and anami” Zenfar said, “both sides should find out as much as possible about the demons...very little is known about them”

“Yes. I agree...” Reza replied.

Then for another hour or so the group discussed more points of action regarding the Elvish relations with the VHC and WCC and action plans for Reza, Luca, and August when they discuss the matter back with their respective councils.

I kept silent for the most part, still trying to digest my surprise appointment as ambassador, what the hell is Patri thinking?!

—-

The meeting ended late afternoon, and I stayed in the room with Patri and King Ethnar.

As the remainder of the attendees left the room, I spoke.

“Why?” I asked.

“Chris...can’t you see it?” Patri asked.

“What?”

“This position is perfect for you” King Ethnar said.

“But I’m just...”

“What? Young and Immature?” He asked. “Maybe you are, but it seems to never get through that thick head of yours how special you are!”

“Huh?”

“Precisely our point!” His voice booming across the room.

“Chris...my child...you may be young but you’re already Platinum...and look around you...you’ve already brought people with you without even trying...humans...elves... vampires and werewolves” Patri said.

“Chris...you have to step up and take your rightful place” King Ethnar said. “We know you’re young...but you won’t be going through this alone...we’re right behind you...you can always count on us”

“But what if...I fail or disappoint you?”

“So? That can happen...that’s part of life...we’ve both lived far too long to be so naive as to expect perfection” My great grandfather said.

“We’re not expecting perfection, Chris... what we expect from you is to represent the elves to the best of your abilities and protect our interests back on earth the best way you can” Patri said. “And besides...you’re the only one that can easily cross the realms with no effort... that takes the energy of at least six gold level elves you know”

“And you can’t?” I asked.

“I can try...but I’d rather not exhaust myself” Patri chuckled.

Then Patri took a moment to collect himself, paused, and then said “now that you’re ambassador...you have a meeting with several ministers starting tomorrow!” He said with excitement.

“Huh?”

“You have a meeting with the Minister of Civil Security together with his bureau chiefs tomorrow morning

“You mean Uncle Rehanmir?”

“Yes...my grandson...you’ll be meeting with him and the chiefs of Akros, The Royal Guard, and Civil Guard” Patri then paused and then spoke again “then in the afternoon you’ll be meeting with the Minister of Treasury together with her bureau chiefs and late afternoon you’ll be meeting with the Minister for External Scholarship and his bureau chiefs”

“The last one is Yal right?”

“Yes...it’s imperative as ambassador you are made aware of the operations of his team back on earth”

“You mean all the spying they’ve been doing?”

“Research, my dear! Research!” Patri chuckled.

“And what about the Minister of Treasury?”

“You’ll have to know about the state of the realm’s economy and our trading operations on earth as well” King Ethnar added.

“Ohh...I see...so tomorrow’s gonna be a busy day huh?”

“Yes it will be... I suggest you find yourself a chief of staff...and I insist you bring a guard with you back on Earth”

“Really?”

“Think about it... having a chief of staff will surely help you...and having a body guard is fitting for a prince even if I can’t find anyone nearly as strong as you but we have appearances to keep!” Patri laughed a bit.

“Fine...I’ll think about it”

“Marvelous!” Patri said as he brought me in for a tight hug. King Ethnar followed suit with a tight hug of his own.

“You’ll do well my child... I’m sure of it” King Ethnar whispered to me.

—-

Just before dinner I dropped by the the training area where dad and Leo were having their magic training.

They were already on it for several hours now and both guys looked exhausted.

They were on a short break and I decided to ask them how they were doing.

“This is so much harder than it seems” Leo complained.

“You make it look so easy son” Dad huffed.

“But you guys got magic right?”

“Yes yes... they’ve confirmed it” Leo proudly replied in between deep breaths. “But so far I can only cause small sparks with basic fire incantation”

“While I can only do minor spells as well” dad added.

“Such as?” I asked.

“I can make a cup of water vibrate or levitate a small pebble a few inches off the ground”

“That’s good, right?” I asked, not knowing what the normal pace of learning is.

“They’re doing more than fine, your highness” a young male elf spoke.

“I am Ejano, one of the Mage apprentices teaching them today”

“Well...that’s good to hear, Ejano... please take good care of my best friend and dad for me” I said to the elf with a smile.

“Of course we will, your highness” he said as he gave me a slight bow.

“So are you guys elemental or what?” I asked Leo and dad.

“They say elemental magic practice begins when you’re bronze level... so being coppers... we’re stuck with basic spells for now... but they’re saying I’m Fire and your dad is Air” Leo said.

“Wow...that’s cool”

“Yeah! I’m so stoked!”

Then I remembered something. I looked at dad and said “dad...you’re just like mom... she’s air too!”

Dad got misty eyed and tried his best not to cry in front of me. “It’s okay, dad... I know you miss her, just do her proud by being the best Air Mage you can be!” I said trying to cheer my dad up.

I then left dad and Leo back to their training and dropped by another training room. I spotted Victor, Hashim, and Stefano in a 3 on 3 sparring session with silver level elves - 2 water elves and 1 fire elf, god were they all fast and rather skilled.

The spectacle of fire and water magic against the skills of the three vampires was a sight to behold, the techniques employed by the elves certainly gave me ideas on what I could do next time, the way they manipulated th balls and pillars of ice and fire, and how water and heat when used in concert created the perfect opportunity to conjure mist to hide oneself, while as I watched the vampires fight, their movements gave me pointers as to how to move and conduct myself in battle. And with Victor being Gold level, his movements were more refined and well thought out, he was absolutely remarkable, and by the way I’m seeing it, he’s even faster than the last time I saw him, he’s getting better and better.

Goodness...people keep telling me I’m very skilled and what not yet here I am learning so much from the people in front of me.

It took more than half an hour for the vampires to beat the elves, and it was not an easy win for my friends. Victor being a Gold certainly tipped the scales in their favor. I’m excited to see some gold on gold sparring sessions, maybe I can even join in!

Thank you very much @Etotsira!

Ch89 soon!

I have been binging this story from chapter 1.

1. Thank you for not creating the "superman" syndrome that way too many magic tales fall into. So far.

2. Thanks for realizing that sex in a story, like everything else in the story has to actually contribute to the story.

3. You hold up the tradition, mostly online publishing, that most gay men and boys are not femanized versions of what is portrayed by major publishers and film. Gay men and boys are not closet trans, not meaning that in a bad way.

 

I'm overall impressed with the quality of this series. Thanks for the hard work and please keep it coming.

So perfectly beautiful.  Your writing style and story telling are wonderful.  I only wish Chris grew some balls.  His mealy mouth attitude and poor me attitude is getting tiring.  He has to realize his own power and self worth.  Grow up and man up Chris

I totally get that an 18yo would troubled with being thrown into the deep end.  But calmly accepting vampires and werewolf and even being Elvish then using magic often he has to come to terms and begin to grow up.  We don't need Superman or a Wonder Womanish action but he has to understand that he is powerful.

What he needs to realize is that he needs his training.

Oh...and he should get his own embassy/house.  Atalos should be his chief of staff...and what the he'll, take the driver too

Chris will be a great ambassador between the earth and the realm, basically between the vampires, werewolves and the elves. He’s already been doing well in that role since he ha s started meeting more vampires and werewolves especially since his boyfriend is a vampire. I think Leo and William are going to be able to do more than the basic elemental magic they’re doing now.
