i believe i explained it sometime ago here (too lazy to scroll down) but

the coming of age is basically that he is considered an adult. at what age depends on the culture

in the US for example you can argue it is either 18 or 21 while in some countries,cultures (or hell even religions) it could be as early as 13 or 15.

Examples

Mexican girls have their coming of age at 15 (quinceneras, which is the equivalent of the american sweet 16)

The jews have their barmitzvah's (i know i murdered the word lmao) at 15? (I don't know I'm not a jew >.>)

I remember once on National Geographic they were covering a tribe in Africa (I think it was in Ethopia? )  where you aren't considered a man until you have completed a trial (part of what I remember was running across the backs of a herd of bulls, could be completed as early as 13 but of course if you failed you could re-try this way into what other places would consider you an adult)

so really how old Luka is depends on age he is considered an adult so he can be any age really for sure is less than 21 (or at least months younger) since Alice says she is older than him and she says she is 21
