The other remaining skills didn't improve since Rema neglected in practicing them. These skills are the Spirit Strings, the Body Enhancement, and the Spirit Needles.
Because Rema haven't practiced them for days now, she started to prioritize them. Of course, she still placed the Spirit Wings and Spirit Hemisphere on top of those skills.
Rema was now planning to go into hiding, and not aggressively attacking other animals and monsters. She plans to tier up quickly so that she can parasitize the ignalis and spider monster.
She already found where the spider monster lives by the help of the falcon she was possessing. The falcon she was possessing was called Quartacon which she has learned from Psyche. She saw that the spider monster has three spider monster minions that has tier 2 strength, and five spider monster that has tier 1 strength.
The spider monster was called a Delder. She saw that the Delder has created a small base on a huge tree. The tree was three times bigger than the normal trees around the forest. The giant tree was not unique on the forest since Rema had already seen many trees that has the same size as the tree the Delder was residing.
The whole base of the Delder was full of webs, and each webs has small spiders crawling on it. The small spiders are even eating each others while some are mating.
Soon, one of the tier 3 Delder noticed Rema, and shot some webs towards the Quartacon she was parasitizing. Rema immediately left when she saw the attack. She didn't want to stay since she knew that once one of the Delder noticed her, everyone will be notified and attack her.
Now that she knew where the Delder resides, Rema needs to plan how to get them out of there base since she knew that fighting there will be a disadvantage.
One of her ideas was to set the base of the Delders on fire but that would be an unwise move since it can make a forest fire. She cancelled that idea out, and then started to think of another strategy.
Rema also thought about using the underground but she can't do that because she has no ability to do so. And even if she has the ability, it won't work because once they submerged on the ground they'll be surrounded by other spiders on each sides.
She also can't attack using the sky since the Quartacon has no ability to attack from a distance. The Quartacon's mode of attack is by using it's beak, claws, and wings. And even it do have a form of range attacks, it won't do any difference because of the quantity of numbers it will be facing alone.
Rema then commanded the Quartacon to continue scouting the forest since she was currently having a hard time thinking about a solution.

Days passed and still Rema hasn't made any progress in finding a solution to attack the Delders. The only thing that Rema can think of is by finding what it eats and she found out that the Delder only eats it's own kin. Right now, Rema was planning to start parasitizing a normal spider in the base of the Delders but Rema thinks that it will take a long time before she can parasitize the matriarch of the Delders.
The matriarch of the Delders only eats 1 Delder that is tier 1 every week. And each week a new tier 1 Delder will be raised to replace the lost Delder.
If Rema wants to parasitize a tier 1 Delder in there, her clone must be eaten by using a normal spider. The Delders only eats the spiders moving around the base.
This is the only way that Rema can think of to safely parasitize the matriarch of the Delders. But using this strategy might take a long time to accomplish the mission because there are 5 tier 1 Delders, and each week only 1 of those Delders will be randomly chosen to be eaten by the matriarch.
Rema will only have a 20% chance of being eaten by the matriarch. This strategy might take a long time but this was also the strategy that has the highest chance of parasitizing the matriarch.
Then Rema commanded one of her clones to ride the Quartacon. The Quartacon then flew up, and went towards the base of the Delders.
The Quartacon landed close to the base, and then dropped of the ant that one of her clones was parasitizing. The Quartacon then flew back, and started to survey the place again.
The ant then started to go towards the Delders base. It took an hour for the ant to arrive on the base. The ant went inside it, and stepped on the webs since this will notify a spider that a prey is stuck on one of it's webs.
Shortly after, a spider saw the ant that Rema was parasitizing. The spider then ate the ant, and Rema was successful in parasitizing the spider.
Rema then received the memories of the spider, and she learned that it was tasked by the matriarch to fight and eat other spiders inside the base. Of course, Rema did that to not make the matriarch of the Delders be suspicious of her.

Days passed just like that, and Rema was only killing other spiders and eating them but she has not yet encountered a tier 1 Delder.
Even if this was happening, Rema didn't neglect her training to increase her power. At the moment, Rema has 87 Spirit Power. She was also able to upgrade her skills.
Her Spirit Strings improved in length, and she can now create 3 strings at the same time with a cost of 1 Spirit Energy. While her Spirit Needles also upgraded from being able to summon 2 needles at the same time into 3 needles. It still cost 1 Spirit Energy per use.
Lastly, her Body Enhancement raised her body's defense by 10.5%. It still cost 2 Spirit Energy per use.
