Later when Hunter and Shadow were made members of the Spider Riders, Venus would often train with Shadow and Flame in sparing matches. One day, when Corona was feeling particularly worn out. Venus suggested she take a day off and do things most normal girls do. While the idea did not work as intended, Corona did feel better about being a warrior by the end of the day.
Some time later Grasshop challenged the Spider Riders to a set of duels. Venus and Corona defeated their opponent with ease once Corona was able to lure the Invectid and his machine to a web-trap set by Venus. After the duel was over Venus learned from Grasshop that he had merely been a distraction.

Venus encountered the mysterious girl, now revealed to be a girl named Aqune again inside the Oracle shrine.

During the trek to Nuuma Venus and the others were confronted by Aqune and Portia, but both were freed of Buguese control and both agreed to accompany Venus and the others to Nuuma. Shortly after Venus got the chance to meet the legendary hero Quake after he nearly tricked her and the others with an illusionary paradise. Not long after, Buguese regained control of Portia and Aqune and Grasshop joined the group.
When the Invectids laid siege to Nuuma Castle, Venus fought to protect people of Nuuma and the Nuuman Oracle Key. Despite her efforts, Buguese and Aqune managed to steal the Nuuman key.
Venus accompanied Corona to the Invectid Nation when Hunter proposed negotiating with Mantid for peace directly. Once the Spider Riders infiltrated the labyrinth, Venus watched as Shadow and Hunter were separated from them when a bridge crumbled beneath their feet. Venus later learned that the pair survived the fall and were now in Fortress Mantid. Venus was reunited with them when she and the others emerged at the other end of the labyrinth.
Later Venus tried to assist the others in fighting Buguese in his new Battle Beetle, the Dark Opal but could only watch as they were swiftly defeated. She also witnessed Dark Opal steal the last of Oracle's power from Hunter's two keys. After that she and the others were saved from the mind controlled Aqune do to the intervention of Buguese, removing Aqune's mask.
