Chapter 22

22-1
Kumoko has finished her evolution and become a Zoa Ele. While preparing to eat the Elroe Gunerave she killed earlier, Kumoko checks her stats and is shocked to find that most have doubled. Noticing many of her skills have also levelled up a lot, including the ones she is levelling so she can use the [Detection] skill. Kumoko decides to try using [Detection] and finds she still can't, but that it is getting easier to endure. Checking her other skills, Kumoko discovers [Taboo] is now at Level 5 and is concerned about what will happen when it reaches Level 10. Finished with the descaling with her new scythe legs, Kumoko settles to her meal.

After her meal, Kumoko checks the skill catalogue and discovers the [Perseverance] skill is available for 500 skill points. Kumoko purchases it without hesitation, increasing [Taboo] to Level 7, and attains the [Ruler of Perseverance] title. Examining the title, Kumoko learns of the Evil Eye Skills. Examining the new skills which came with the title, Kumoko realises [Heresy Nullification] should mean she can use [Detection] now.

Kumoko activates [Detection] and finds it no longer hurts to use. Kumoko's mind is flooded with information as she sees the true form of the world. Though concerned it is too high performance and will be a distraction in battle, Kumoko decides to keep [Detection] on at all times to get used to it. As her mental skills start increasing exponentially, Kumoko notices she as acquired [Divinity Expansion] Level 1, but is unsure what it is beyond something to do with the soul, even after appraising it. The speed her mental skills are increasing at quickly causes [Detection] to hit Level 10, maxing it out. Disappointed nothing is unlocked for the feat, Kumoko ponders on which skills to acquire in the future while getting down to some hunting.

Kumoko's hunt goes exceptionally well, and her skills continue to grow at an immense rate. Eventually, [Parallel Thinking] maxes out and Kumoko attains the [Parallel Minds] skill. This skill allows her to split her consciousness into separate independent parts. Taking advantage of this Kumoko has her first parallel mind focus on body control, the Body Brain, while she focuses on assessing the situation as, Information Brain. Taking on a mob of monsters, the pair of parallel minds work together to efficiently take down the enemies until the decide to test a new skill on the final enemy, an Elroe Gunerush.
