The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 894: Happy Endings...

It is always good when things come together in the end.

Fifty-four years ago, two sisters were separated due to the horror that befell mankind. It broke them, forcing them to walk a path they never knew was possible.

They went through thick and thin just to survive for this very day, when two sisters held each other in the air, smiling to their heart’s content.

The happiness in the air was something the two sisters didn’t know was possible, but as it stood, they were having so much of it that they couldn’t think of anything except catching up.

”I miss you, big sister,” Miriam said, holding her sister’s hand.

”I miss you too, Miriam,” Tifa said with a smile, looking even happier than her sister. A huge load had been lifted off her shoulders, one she never knew could make her feel this free.

But she was now free of her guilt.

Klaus watched, shaking his head. He had come there to get his vampire army, but it turned out that some things were much more important than his lofty ambitions.

Eventually, the two sisters managed to calm their happiness down, more like putting a pin in it for the time being.

When the Vampire Queen sat back down, she looked at Klaus, now with no half-mask covering her mouth or hood obscuring her face.

”Thank you,” she said with a thankful gaze.

Klaus nodded. ”Before we start anything, I would like to say I was the one who killed your Pops. So, if you have any qualms about that, we can settle it first.”

Everyone turned to Klaus... Even Miriam looked at him with a raised brow. Naturally, what Klaus said was true; he had killed Nabil, the head of the Nabil Great Clan, Miriam’s and Tifa’s father.

Most would be upset about that, so Klaus just wanted to ensure the air was cleared before any negotiations took place. Of course, he also wanted to see if the queen hated her late dad like she had let on earlier.

To Klaus’s shock, her answer was one he never saw coming: ”You weren’t the one who killed him. That bastard was killed by Lin here. The one you killed was just an animated copy of him.”

Tifa said, pointing at the lady who had come to fetch them when they arrived. Klaus turned to her and raised a brow.

”I killed him 34 years ago and animated his body. The reason you didn’t notice was that my ability to animate a corpse allows me to keep their heartbeat going for as long as I want—or until I am no longer alive.”

”I see. In that case, we can continue since I wasn’t the one who killed your dad,” Klaus smiled, and Miriam just shook her head.

”I suppose we can start. First of all, I would like to say sorry for how our first meeting ended. Things could have ended on a more civil note, but I suppose since it’s in the past, we can let it be.”

”Now that we both know the reason for this meeting, let’s get down to business.”

”I suppose we should do that,” Klaus agreed. ”Let’s start with the most obvious. The answer to your questions is yes. I have the means to make you all become vampires. All traces of zombiness will be wiped from your blood.”

”Your race will change from zombie vampires to just vampires, according to what I know. However, there is a catch—one that I believe you will all have to discuss, or you can straight away reject if you want.”

Tifa nodded, looking at Miriam for a few seconds before turning back to Klaus. ”Go ahead.”

”The moment you all become Vampires, you will be connected to me. Meaning I will have supreme authority over all of you. However, before you frown, know that I have no plans on controlling you using my authority.

If anything, you should be happy you are linked to me. Trust me, I am that awesome,” Klaus laughed, and his two wives, Miriam and Queenie, couldn’t hold back their smiles either. Even Jaguar shook his head.

It turns out his master is not only terrifyingly strong, but he is also shameless—very shameless, in fact.

Miriam gazed at her sister, who was also looking back at her.

In fact, one reason Tifa revealed her identity to Miriam was because of this moment. Jin, the sly assassin lady who killed Nabil, was the CIA operative she saved during the early years of the apocalypse.

She was also the one who managed to locate Miriam. She also let her know when Miriam found herself a boyfriend, who now seemed more like a husband.

So, she knew Miriam would make things easy for her. Just like how her blood managed to turn the zombies, she knew Klaus’s blood might have a similar effect. However, she also had supreme authority over the zombies, so she suspected Klaus would have the same over them.

She is too brilliant to the point that, after witnessing the battle between Klaus’s side and the savage zombies, she realised something about the humans didn’t add up.

The reports she received on the humans described them as weak, but what she saw was anything but weak. If anything, what she saw terrified her. So hearing Klaus’s words now made her realise something.

And now that Miriam nodded to her inner thoughts, she knew things were about to change.

However, she was prepared for it... They were all prepared for it. Every last Zombie vampire inside the city heard what Klaus said.

When their queen asked them whether they wanted what Klaus was offering, their answer was that they would support her unconditionally, whatever decision she made.

She had already done enough for them. They were meant to be dummies that the humans were to use to level up. However, instead of that, they had a place to stay and a sense of belonging.

That was more than they could ask for.

So if their queen finally found a way to have her happy ending, then they would want to be part of that too, simply by trusting her and following her every arrangement.

The queen was touched by their unanimous trust in her, so she gave her answer to Klaus.
