Chapter 8 - Chapter 8 - Ant Queen's Room

It didn't take long for a pair of ant workers to arrive.

"We'll be the two replacements. You can go now-" Before one of the ant workers finished talking, Rema attacked the both of them with the help of her other clone.

The two ant workers were shocked and Rema quickly took this chance to get out of the ant worker she was currently possessing and then immediately entered the other ant.

Rema successfully possessed the two ant workers, and then felt the headache coming from the huge information she received. She managed to calm her nerves down easier compared to before. She didn't gain new information this time from the two ant workers.

After possessing the ant workers, she then carried the two ant corpses with the help of her clone to hide it inside the room.

'Rema1 create two clones by using this two bodies while I guard the room.' Rema said while quickly leaving her clone.

Rema planned to make two additional clones to be able to eat more ant eggs. She stopped her plan from eating antlings since she noticed that the antlings will immediately leave the room after being born.

Her clone immediately did what Rema told her to do. A few minutes passed, and she then followed Rema.

Rema felt her Spirit Power weakening. She has a total of 6.55 Spirit Power, and when combined with her clone she'll have 13.1 Spirit Power. Since she will be having four bodies, she'll have 3.275 Spirit Power now for each body.

'Ughh, I hate this feeling of being weak. After my two clones are born I'll let them eat 5 ant eggs each. A single day will let me eat 20 ant eggs.' Rema said to Psyche.

The day then passed with the same routine of getting the ant eggs from the other ant worker.

She then felt another huge pain since she felt like her mind was splitting into many pieces. Even though Rema was experiencing an headache, she was smiling mentally since this pain means that her two clones will be born.

She then felt like another extension of herself is created. Her two other clones are currently eating the ant workers' body.

She didn't bother to go there since she knew that her two clones will immediately practice her control of Spirit Arms while occasionally eating ant eggs. She wanted this to happen since she knows that her clones practicing will also be like practicing herself.

Soon she can feel her Spirit Power increase. Psyche said that her Spirit Power increased by 0.05. For each ant her Spirit Power will increase by 0.025 since she has 4 bodies.

For the next few days, she plans to increase her Spirit Power into 5 before doing something with the third ant worker that is bringing ant eggs.

---

Four days passed before her Spirit Power returned to 5. She currently has 5.5 Spirit Power to be exact.

Rema also killed 4 ant workers, and this four ants came from the replacements that is happening every two days. She ate the 4 ants than letting her clones increase. She felt that increasing her clones is not the right decision for now. She'll increase her clones once she dominates another room where ant eggs are being kept.

She now plans to possess the other ant worker that brings the ant eggs. She plans to know where the other rooms are, and also where the ant queen's room is. It didn't take long before the ant worker arrived. It was holding the ant eggs, and before it can give the ant eggs to Rema, it was attacked by the other clones of Rema.

The ant worker was immediately possessed by Rema, and she then prepared her brain for the upcoming information. She learned where the ant queen's room is but she didn't learn where the other rooms carrying ant eggs are.

'I need to possess one of the other ant workers to know where the other rooms are.' Rema thought while commanding the ant worker she earlier possessed to go towards the ant queen's room to get the ant eggs. One of her clones also came along with that ant worker.

She plans to use one of her clones to possess one of the ant workers there to learn where the other rooms are.

Her clone took about 20 minutes to arrive on the queen ant's room. The room possess many ant eggs, and she also noticed bigger ant eggs. She learned from the ants she parasitize that those big ant eggs are ant fighters. In the middle of the room is a giant ant that was five times larger compared to the other ants she saw before. She can also see ten ants that are two times bigger than ant workers.

Those large ants are the ant fighter's while the giant ant is the ant queen. The room has many tunnels that must lead to the other rooms where the ant eggs are kept. She then controlled her ant worker to get the ant eggs so that the ant queen won't notice anything strange.

While her ant worker was getting ant eggs, she was observing the other ant workers that was getting ant eggs. She also saw them going towards the other tunnels when they finished getting the ant eggs.

She can't find an opportunity to use parasitism to the other ant workers. The place was tightly guarded since she can feel that the ant fighters were observing them, the ant workers.

With no opportunities present, Rema went back. She started to think a plan where she can parasitize an ant worker without getting caught by the ant fighters and ant queen.

'What should I do to parasitize an ant worker without being noticed?' Rema thought over and over again until her brain started to hurt. She didn't even noticed that her clone has already arrived at the room.

She then continued the day by getting ant eggs from the ant queen's room, and then delivering it back to the room. Rema always observed the room but noticed that the room was tightly guarded, and she can't see any flaw in the security.
