pursue, drive away, chase, accomplish, attain, commit
逐 centers on directed movement toward or away from something: pursuing, chasing, or driving away. The senses of accomplishing or attaining something grow from the idea of following a path to its end, while 'commit' is a less common extension of carrying out an action.
逐 combines 辶 (movement) with 豕 (pig), suggesting the action of chasing or driving a pig. This is a standard phono-semantic compound where 豕 may also hint at the sound.
Picture a pig 豕 running away while someone follows closely on a path 辶: they are pursuing it, driving it forward, and eventually catching it to accomplish their goal.
For チク, imagine chasing a pig that keeps squealing 'chiku chiku' as it runs: chiku -> チク, and the sound follows the pig along the path.
