Nobunaga's first friend, maybe ever (do missionaries count given the politics where he has to pretend they're not friends? Probably not, so EVER) died in a fiery blaze of something, so Nobunaga kind of gets it. His own personal reaction is a hard rubberband snap into almost completely detached. But he was never programmed by a cult. Actually, the cold detached Demon King persona is basically an effect of fighting all the cults.
"I've been cleaning." He says this, because he knows how weird it is, even if others don't. He also took Klaus on a 'date' inside Spirit Halloween, which was amazingly fucked up, it was great. "Let's do something better than pacing. I'll work with you through it, even if you're not ready to talk." It's basically what he does around camp in war too. Millions of busywork little errands, pretending he doesn't feel the loss of a single soldier even though as their commander, it's all on him. Checking the horses' shoes and condition, checking the campfires. Checking the supplies -- there's never enough arrows. All these things are delegated, but he can always find someone injured who needs a help or to get ordered back to tent so Nobunaga can take their place instead.
There are two things nothing can make Nobunaga move on. 1) He will never use the weapon of hate. Not on anyone. 2) He will never abandon someone. Especially not during a crisis.
