[Oda Nobunaga is not a good guy. Make no mistake about it. The Demon King who committed a holocaust on the Buddhist stronghold of Mount Hiei isn't overly kind, shocking, no doubt.]
[But he's not entirely without empathy, and has the basic understanding that as (little) as he was jarred to be displaced without warning, it's probably much worse for everyone else who doesn't have his almighty grand composure and rapid reflexes and frankly, amazing ability to adapt.]
[So his backhand slap is meant merely to snap Jaskier out of the shock, not injure the man.]
Hush! [The cold eyes he sets upon the griffin, however, are indeed every bit the conqueror's dominating rage he's so infamous for. A kind of, "don't sing when I don't command it, or I'll kill you every bit as much as I kill the songbird who doesn't sing when I do command it!" And with that, Oda (surprisingly!) gently picks up the device, and turns the volume down.] I had only seen one once before, and never in action. Curious devices, are they not?
I believe these snake like things go to your ears, to avoid others hearing. Useful for spying, no doubt. Don't worry, the heads don't bite. [Mind, Jaskier probably was less worried until he said that...]
