The temperament of Princess Layla was a bit different from the lady that Rocky had met earlier. The princess in front of him right now was so dignified and graceful, while the previous one was more like a lively girl with a youthful aura.
In fact, if Rocky did not remember Layla's aura, he would have thought that she had a twin sister.
Meanwhile, Layla was in a daze, looking intently at Rocky. She and Gilbert were expecting that he would come out a bit later, but he was already here as if the enchanted barrier was not much of a challenge for him.
"Well done! It seemed that Leader Gilbert was indeed right about you. You are so talented!" As soon as Layla regained her senses, she did not hold back on praising Rocky.
"And I didn't expect that you have such a naughty side, Your Royal Highness," Rocky replied with a meaningful smile.
"Ahem!" Not expecting Rocky's response, Layla could not help but glare at him, signaling to Rocky not to reveal what happened between them earlier.

"It's good that you know what you've done," Gilbert answered coldly.
"The reason why I didn't tell you about it is that you'd think that my plan is a bit far-fetched. If I told you about it in advance, I'm sure that you would not let me discuss it with the princess," Rocky explained ingenuously.
"I know that your plan is feasible, but it's still full of uncertainty. Of course, I will object because the princess can't take those huge risks."
"That's where you are mistaken. My plan will not affect the princess whether it succeeds or not; and the whole thing is not dangerous at all," Rocky said with a devious laugh.
