Almost instantly, a familiar figure appeared before him, a calm smile on his face as he stood tall, his katana strapped to his waist. "I can. Go on, my lord," Oda Nobunaga said with confidence.
Alex didn't waste a moment, quickly mounting his hell horse and pulling Lumi close. "Thanks, Oda," he said, his voice full of urgency.
"Let's go, then," Oda replied, stepping beside them, ready to offer his assistance. Together, they surged forward, leaving the dangers of the temple and the pursuing Lucifer behind—at least for now.
Lucifer halted in his tracks as he saw Oda standing beside Alex and Lumi, the katana at his side gleaming faintly in the dim light. His eyes narrowed, studying the new figure with a mix of curiosity and interest.
"And well, who are you?" Lucifer asked.
Oda met his gaze without flinching, a faint smirk pulling at the corners of his mouth. "I am Oda Nobunaga," he replied evenly. "A warrior, a strategist... and currently, a loyal servant to my lord, Alexander."
