6 Chapter 6 - Working at Hellsing. (1/2)
As Seras was carrying Basky to Alucard's room, the monster himself arrives in front of her with a curious gaze.
The reason why he is so curious is because the way she is carrying the Hound of Baskerville. It shrunk itself down to the size of a pug and is being carried against Seras' chest. Seras' arms are underneath its two front arms.
”Why are you carrying it like that?”
”What? Oh you mean Basky! Well, I figured he is cute enough to hug, so I might as well do it while searching for your room Master.”
”Basky? You named it, Basky?”
”Yeah? Wait, does it have a different name already?” Seras asks in both sadness and confusion.
”Well yes and no, I just call it the Hound of Baskerville.”
”Isn't Basky just a nickname for that? saying the Hound of Baskerville each time would be annoying.”
As she is saying that the hound roars to reaffirm her claim.
”Hmm. Not that I mind any. Do you want to stay with her?” Alucard asks the Hound.
To which, it nods back and then snuggles into her chest for more comfort.
”Anyway, follow me, we're close to my room now.” He says as he walks away.
While they're walking, Seras is going through her plans in her mind. What people may know from the show and manga in her past life is that the story takes place on earth in 1999.
The reason she is thinking about this is that she might want to make her own money for if and when the Hellsing Organization can no longer take care of her. Maybe she can try to use the Simulator to look for buried treasure that hasn't been discovered yet.
”Hey master?”
”What?”
”Can we eat human food?”
”Why? Do you want to?”
”Not really. I was just asking if I get tired of just drinking blood over and over again.”
”How nonchalant. The answer is no.”
”Really? So what does blood taste like?”
”It's very hard to describe, especially since it's been centuries since the last time I ate human food. Plus I don't want to ruin it for you, your first feeding is a memorable one. I don't want to taint your experience with mine.”
”Hmph! How uninformative.”
As she says that with a pout they arrive at a double door. The doors have many inscriptions on them surrounding a big one that looks exactly like the one on her master's glove. The doors stand at about 8 feet tall and are completely black. After they arrive Alucard opens them and Seras looks inside.
'Wow, how grand. Just like I've seen before.'
The room is completely made out of stone and there are only 2 pieces of furniture in it. A chair that looks more like a throne and a circular table by its side holding 2 glasses and a bottle of wine.
”Master, this is where you sleep?”
”Yes, why do you ask such a stupid question?”
”Well, there is nowhere to actually sleep, don't tell me you sleep while sitting down? Is that a vampire thing?”
”No it's not, I don't usually sleep at all.”
”Oh, where am I going to sleep?” Seras says trying to change the topic.
”Anywhere is fine, you can choose.”
”Ok! Then I choose here.” She says as she points directly next to the throne.
”Really? Why are you so attached to me, Police girl?”
”You're my master, Master!” She says with a smile.
As they're talking, somewhere in the Vatican, a man is sitting in a very expensive looking chair which is sat behind an expensive looking antique desk. He is going through files when an older gentleman comes in disrupting him.
”Father Maxwell, there is something you should see!”
”What is it, Father Renaldo? I'm busy at the moment.” He says slightly irked.
”It's very important, you know that pet vampire housed by Hellsing?”
”Hm? Alucard? Yes I'm aware of that Protestant whore's pet vampire dog.” He says nonchalantly despite the scathing insult.
”Well, Apparently he has sired another vampire. This is what we know about her.” Father Renaldo says as he hands the file to Enrico Maxwell.
As Maxwell starts to read the file his facial expression turns from uninterested to wholeheartedly consumed as soon as he sees her picture.
”Hmmmm. Are those real? How can a teenager have such massive knockers?” Maxwell says while studying Seras' form intently.
”Please Maxwell, read the file seriously.” Renaldo sighs tiredly before speaking.
A few minutes later, Maxwell has a sad expression before coughing and turning back to his normal uninterested look.
”It's sad. Her life has been one bad thing after another. If only she arrived at a Catholic Orphanage. She might have been a magnificent Iscariot member.”
”Sir, let's not focus on what could have been and decide on our course of action.”
”We do nothing, for now.” Maxwell says while throwing the file on top of the desk.
”Sir?”
”At this moment, she is but a fledgling who hasn't even been turned for 8 hours. We have loads of people who can deal with her.”
”But sir, she is a potential threat that we have to eliminate.”
”Don't worry, Father Renaldo. We can deal with her whenever we want.”
”I understand, Father Maxwell.” Renaldo takes the file and then leaves the room with an unwilling face.
'Ah Enrico. You're still but a child. Alucard has never sired a fledgling before, this 'girl' as you call her is able to be the next Alucard.' He thinks as he looks back down at her picture sticking out of the file.
'Such a shame, she had so much to live for. Despite being a Protestant.'
As soon as seras made that exclamation, Walter comes in with four others dragging her bed along. As she sees that there are other humans with him, she shows an annoyed expression and turns to speak to Alucard who just vanished.
'Damn master! Leaving me behind!'
”Oh! Thanks Walter! I'm super tired after everything that has happened today, would you like me to give a hand?” Seras asks.
”Please, Ms. Victoria. This bed is too heavy for any normal men to handle.” Walter says while telling the four men to put it down.
