Part of her discomfort isn't to do with Nobunaga at all; it's the idea that people might treat her poorly, even kill her, over such an unimportant thing.

If I were going there, I'd remove it first. I wouldn't be that careless! You're the only one here who has seen it, and only because I wanted to show you, and if I were going, I wouldn't even take that risk.
