Daito Mine Arc
During Musashi's Kitetsu Blade trial, the Goddess interfered, and made him fail the trial. Later, after he met Shiro for a second time and he threw him in a pit. Musashi started climbing out, but the Goddess states he cannot allow it and causes him to fall into the magma. In a strange world, she tells him to stay with her forever and that he should give up helping his friends as he can't fight. As Musashi is still refusing, she tells him that he doesn't need them and reminds him of his past of how he lost his parents and what he did to be noticed by someone. She apologizes for reminding him of his past, but she needed to break his fight spirit and avoid being captured. The Goddess believed they will be safe in the magma, but Nanao uses her Kitetsu Blade and starts to pull out Musashi, making the Goddess lose hope that they will be captured.

While fighting Shiro and Nanao, Musashi and the rest end up falling towards their death. The Goddess stops the time and tells Musashi that Shiro is one of her enemies wanting her power and that she will grant Musashi her power to save him, but hearing only he will be saved, Musashi declines, stating that he can't do anything alone and is weak, but when he is with others, he feels power and wishes to see how far they can go together. The Goddess comments that she thought his selfishness made him unfit to be her vessel, but now he has allies and seems to have the power to draw others to his struggle. That's a valuable temperament, because pooling strength with comrades in order to fight is the only way the fragile humans can fight the Kishin. The Goddess decides to give him his power and will demonstrate how she fights using his body. Using his body, the Goddess draws in blade energy from every Kitetsu Blade around her and takes Shiro's blade, ending his technique and saving everyone. Nanao attacks her, but all her attacks are being warped and repelled. The Goddess explains that those with black stones have the control over blade energy, and can draw it towards them or even repel it. But because of the unique nature of the power, the vortex of magnetism can leave people confused and unable to use Kitetsu Blade, which is the truth behind the legend they know. Shiro retakes his blade. The Goddess explains her existence is fragile and she was resting inside of Musashi. Taking actions in the material world fades her power quickly and she need to return to sleep soon, and when she do, Musashi will loose the obsidian power. As they will still want to kill him, she wonders if his friends will still want to fight alongside him. Kojiro confirms and the Goddess thanks him.

Shiro states he wanted to meet the Goddess for so long and asks him to join him, however the Goddess refuses. The Goddess borrows the power of the Bushi, drawing the Kitetsu Blades energy. Inside of Musashi, the Goddess tells him she will be going back to sleep and that he must not die, because he is her new vessel and because they couldn't finish what they started with Jisai. As she doesn't have time to explain about Jisai, she shows Musashi how she fights in the material world. After gathering the energy from the blades, the Goddess unleashes an attack that obliterates multiple hills behind Shiro.
