[The Day Of The Apocalypse - Tifa’s POV]
Tifa jumped over the gate, tears falling down her face as she ran away.
Just like Miriam, she knew that if her father were to catch her, her life would beco a living hell. Nothing would end well for her if she were caught by her own father.
So, she had to run, and she did—running as far as her legs could take her. Her only concern was whether Miriam would be okay. Of course, she knew her sister wasn’t a zombie, but she still worried about her.
If only she knew her sister had already left the family in search of her. But since she didn’t know that, she ran until she reached a point where she couldn’t see any humans or zombies in sight.
That was when she relaxed and examined her body. She felt strong—much stronger than before—and her speed had already reached a level where she could outrun the fastest athletes several tis over in a 400-ter race.
However, that didn’t stop her from thinking about her sister. And due to this realization, she made up her mind to grow stronger and faster, so she could one day find her way back to her sister sohow.
Of course, she still couldn’t shake the fact that she had scared Miriam to the point that she couldn’t even make a sound. That was just too horrific.
But first, she wanted to grow strong so that even if she couldn’t face Miriam again, she would at least have the ans to protect her from the shadows.

[5 Days into the Apocalypse - First Zombie Vampire]
The mont Miriam’s blood entered Tifa’s body, she beca aware, and that was when she saw what had happened to her. She had beco a zombie vampire, which ant she wouldn’t have to eat humans or beasts to keep growing.
Her source of strength ca from three angles.
The first source of her strength was through kills. She learned this after killing the guards. The second ca from the core dropped by most monsters and humans.
Lastly, of course, was the blood of her kills. This made her significantly superior to humans, as, aside from killing or absorbing cores, she could grow stronger by drinking the blood of her kills.
The revelation made her decide. She decided to ignore the obvious and use her three power buffs to grow stronger...so strong that she can one day et her sister again without anyone having a say in how she does it or who cos against her.
Tifa went all out, and within five days, she rose from the ranks of an Awakener to a Master, gaining more than she could ask for.
When she beca a ’Master,’ she acquired a passive skill called [Zombie Vampire Queen]. This skill allowed her to use her blood to transform zombies into a new breed known as Zombie Vampires.
Of course, she had no plan to go around turning zombies into a more vampiric form. So, she continued to grow stronger until one day, a few weeks into the apocalypse, she ca across two zombies.
At first, when she saw them, she thought they were humans because they bore no resemblance to zombies. It wasn’t until they attacked her that she realised not all that glitters is gold.
She fought with them fiercely, and in the end, she overpowered them. However, she couldn’t bring herself to kill them.
So, she gave them her blood instead, hoping it would work...and it did. The zombies adapted to her blood, and just as Miriam’s blood had done for her, they regained their sanity.
They chose to follow her, and Tifa didn’t reject the offer. Having two remarkable warriors like the two siblings wasn’t a bad thing.
If only she knew they would beco her strongest warriors in the future, she wouldn’t have beaten them so severely when they attacked her.

[4 Years into the Apocalypse]
Four years passed in the blink of an eye, and within these four years, Tifa reached the Sovereign stage and managed to expand her warriors from two siblings to eight powerful zombie vampires.
Two of them had been soldiers before the apocalypse, so combat-wise, they were a serious threat. One had been a CIA spy before everything went awry.
Her infiltration skills allowed Tifa to learn more about her sister, who, from what she gathered over the past four years, had disappeared, and no one knew her whereabouts.
However, that didn’t discourage her; she continued to look. In fact, it was her search for her sister that led her to et two more zombies, whom she converted to join her side.
Both worked in the construction industry, specifically in talwork. Thanks to their experience with tals, they awakened the tal elent, making them an invaluable asset. The mont these two were added to the original five, she was able to move much more freely.
Later, she t the last person who beca one of her key subordinates, soone who walked through thick and thin with her.
They fought many battles and went on countless adventures. Thankfully, through it all, they had only one purpose: to locate Miriam, who, while her sister was looking for her, had chosen to enter a forbidden zone filled with overpowered monsters.
When Tifa finally found her sister, Miriam was fiercely locked in battle with dozens of monsters, realms above her. In fact, if not for Tifa finding her and secretly ensuring her safety, Miriam would have succumbed to the onslaught.
But she didn’t, and Tifa, who had finally found her sister, was both happy and sad. She was happy to know her sister was well, but sad not knowing how to reveal herself to her.
How they had parted was just so grim that she didn’t know how Miriam would react. So, she followed her, and for 12 years, she did her best to protect her from the shadows, until Miriam reached the stage where she no longer needed her help.
That was when Tifa left and started gathering strength for when her sister would need her help. Her motivation for establishing the vampire city was to gather strength for the mont when Miriam would face a challenge she couldn’t face alone.
She built everything for her sister, and for 54 years, she held herself back from approaching her. However, she could no longer do it. She had to let her sister know she was alive and free her from whatever pain she had suffered all these years.
So, watching Miriam cry was both a heartbreaking mont and a hopeful one, as Tifa, the Zombie Queen, finally reunited with her sister, Miriam, who had believed her to be dead all these years.
