Alec's age?

I read the manga and thought he was 20 years old, then I came to MAL and the character page says he's 14. I re-read the manga (chapter 1, page 14) and thought "well, he might be 14, but it doesn't fit". And everytime I read the dialogue I got a different impression, so please, can anyone tell me how old he is? I thought I might have missed something because English isn't my first language, but I checked another forum and they never got to a conclusion (and now I feel like sending canon to hell and make myself happy saying he's 17 years old).

I read this today and it does say that he is 14 in the manga, though he looks older and I really can't see him being 14. I just think he's 20 even though thats a 10 years gap between him and Justinia, lol. Well thats my opinion on what his age SHOULD be. :) (For some reason I can't see him being 19 or younger or older than 22... so in my mind he is somewhere between 20 and 22)

He's 20. It says in the first chapter that he's turning 20 and that he has to get married.

Alec is 20....in the first chapter Frad asks him about his age he says i'm 20....
then Frad says if we were hi majest the King we would have married at 14...
aslo it's doesn't make sense if he's 14 for the reasons you mentioned...

he's definitely 20 yrs old. they show him as a 14 year old, i think, in the flashbacks when he was with samael. honestly, i luv this manga lots <3 but the thought of him doing it with a ten year old is... *shiver* i think he loves her, but he wants to wait till she grows up. i wish we could see that! (the grown up euti)

14? O_O that is just so wrong...his reaction on their wedding night and experiences from the battlefield . anyway doesn't it say that there was an incident 16 (or so) years ago? that would make him at last 18-20....and truthfully 10 years difference is not so much... my classmates parents have a 13 years difference...so...it's not too much ...>-<
