Excellent, the beast had already turned.

It was of similar size to a horse, which meant her next move was an easy one.

Nobunaga's entire body tensed, as she leaned forward. Ideally she would find one of the gaps between ribs, but the katana's quality was sufficient to cut bone. At least, provided this creature had relatively normal bones, and if its heart was anywhere near where she expected it to be.

Even if it wasn't, it would still be a deep piercing injury to an area that would likely bleed quite a bit.

Nobunaga placed one foot forward as the creature was distracted and immediately burst forward as swiftly as she could, her cape flapping behind her as she moved. Angling her body, tightening her posture as much as she could, the small black-haired girl aimed to slip [i]beneath[/i] the sheet of scales and thrust her sword between the creature's ribs as quickly and as deeply as she possibly could.
