Thinking of the name he had chosen, Aldritch could feel the legend rise within him... if only he knew that he would become a vampire, he would have chosen a more befitting name for his status.
He looked around and realized that he was in a monster abode, and a low ranking one at that, so the name didn't quite fit the environment, but Aldritch was thinking of the future when he chose this name.
"I'll get to work when you wake up..." He looked at the goblin queen on the bed passed out. For a sturdy female monster, she looked more human with some soft features than goblin which was a bit unnatural, so Aldritch thought she was some kind of special breed. Regardless, she was still eye catching.
He placed his palm on her naked breast to fill on them a bit, then he stopped shortly after to continue his plan. He didn't want the horniness to return, he wished for the effects from the aphrodisiac to wear off so he could think clearer.
...
Some hours later, the goblin queen regained herself, standing up in shock. She looked at Aldritch for a while, then her scrunched up face relaxed and she immediately went to her knees and bowed her head so that her temple forehead touched the ground.
"Master."
'What? I can now understand goblin language? Am I turning into a goblin? Or did she somehow magically learn to communicate?' Aldritch wasn't sure, but it was convenient. Also, the system didn't tell him anything, but he left that for later.
"Raise your head." The moment didn't give that dominating aura Aldritch was going for, after all... both parties were naked.
"What is your name?" The way Aldritch saw it, he couldn't' just keep calling her servant from now on or something like that, so there had to be that.
"I don't have a name, master."
"What? You just move and exist without a name?" It was a bit unexpected to be honest. One would expect that since the goblins had a language to communicate in, that they would name themselves, but wrong!
After a quick search through his memories, Aldritch confirmed that indeed, these goblins didn't name themselves, they just ate, hunt and sleep until they die or get killed. Well, he could understand, they were more wild than civilized.
"I will give you a name then... Goblin, Goblina... Your name from now on will be Lina, and the name of our family is Hellsing. Never forget it."
'I see... It's not much of it, but it certainly makes a difference.'
"Hmm..."
"Queen! I have brought what you requested!"
"Why is he so noisy, tell him not to shout next time."
"Yes master. Master, may I stand up and bring the clothes?"
"You may." Aldritch resisted the sly grin that crept its way to his mouth. The servant's loyalty was really absolute. Even though it gave him some happiness momentarily, he couldn't help but attribute it to the fact that she could have just done such basic things on her own.
'If the master has to order every single thing, then what is the use of the servant?' Anyway, there was no need to expect too much. The mere fact that they were this intelligent was enough.
After putting on an old shirt and trouser and Lina a robe, he asked her to take him around the place so he could do a little survey. As far as he was concerned now, all that was under Lina was now his, she was just a manager, a sort of keeper for him.
Aldritch took the lead and exited the chamber while Lina walked behind him. As soon as the hobgoblins outside saw him exit the chamber alone however, one of them struck Aldritch with using his spear's wooden side.
Aldritch had seen the weapon approach, but he didn't worry. It was true that he was weak and physically would not be able to win against the hobgoblins, but he had their queen behind him to protect him. What was there to be worried about?
With swift movement that Aldritch couldn't follow, Lina struck the spear coming towards Aldritch, her hand passing through the broken staff, striking the hobgoblin who had struck in the face, sending a few teeth flying. The other one saw what happened and immediately knelt down and bowed his head.
The iron spear head spun in the air and struck the ground beside Aldritch's foot. He looked at it as he walked by, but it seemed that it may have sent a wrong signal to Lina who immediately bowed, striking her head against the ground a little as she did.
"Master, please forgive me, these... I..."
"Enough, rise... We have more important business to tend to now."
