He holds a deep grudge against Rubaiyat, stated himself that he must destroy him and only him. He is one of the few people who actually knows what happened to the twins' past lives, saying to Yuta the first time they met that his incarnation Prince Saif is still troublesomely clinging to Princess Alnilam even after 300 years has passed.

Personality[]
Arif Laila is a calm and composed person. However, in truth he is cruel and does not hesitate at all when killing someone. Yuta thinks of him as nothing more than a crazy and problematic guy, always giving nonsense and incomprehensible talks about destiny and such.
