In this episode, the characters encounter the mountain goddess, who asks them for help in awakening Taizan, a lesser mountain deity controlled by the Dangaisyuu. The Dangaisyuu, a hostile group, have brainwashed Taizan to further their goals. The mountain goddess suggests a simple solution to wake Taizan up: a firm slap. However, this idea is met with disbelief and concern by Tama, Jinka, and Shinsuke.
The mountain goddess reveals her connection to Elder Daigan and her ability to communicate through a communication stone. She expresses her desire to ally with the protagonists, offering them protection from a dragon in exchange for their help. The conversation leads to the revelation of Taizan's situation and the introduction of Kuzunoha, a fox associated with the Dangaisyuu and Tama's mother. The story unfolds against the backdrop of the tale of a man named Yazen, who fell in love with Kuzunoha, joined her, and thereby turned against his own group.
Over the course of the story, the protagonists learn about the Dangaisyuu's research, which aims to transform spirits into humans, with Yazen's research at its core. These experiments accidentally lead to the creation of spiritually enhanced humans. The protagonists vow to confront the Dangaisyuu—and perhaps Kuzunoha as well, depending on her actions.
A sudden message interrupts the conversation, hinting that the dragon man is attempting to break a spell that binds him. This leads to the decision to strengthen the protagonists through distraction and training. The mountain goddess manipulates time to provide an extended period for training, with the goal of deciphering Jinka's Feenaugen and enhancing everyone's spiritual powers.
The training sessions are intense—Shinsuke and Tama face their challenges, while Jinka undergoes a psychological test. Jinka's struggle with his identity and past pain becomes a central theme, culminating in a moment of self-acceptance and the unlocking of his Feenaugen's true potential. The episode concludes with Shinsuke completing his training through creative problem-solving.
