History
Before becoming a merchant, Leila was a thief who would join caravans and guide them to the Thieves Guild. But after meeting Sahsa, she decided to go straight and became a merchant.

Dungeon Arc
Leila is first seen selling different kinds of watermelons in the Oasis City Utan. After some time, she tells to her friend, Sahsa, that they're totally going to sell all. Sahsa smiles and says that it's all thanks to her. She says that she's happy that Leila joined their caravan, what makes Leila blush. Leila then goes for another bunch of fruits to sell, but much to her shock, she finds a boy eating watermelon. She covers Sahsa with one hand and takes a knife into the second. She asks who the thief is. The boy introduces himself as Aladdin and comments on how good the fruits are. Once Aladdin learns that he's done something inexcusable, Leila orders him to work for 3 days without a payment and he agrees.

By going through the bazaar, Leila is surprised that Aladdin has no knowledge about them. She explains what bazaar is. Aladdin also doesn't know anything about thieves, making Leila dubious about him. She shields Sahsa and says that she doesn't trust him. She orders him to not do anything weird to Sahsa, but Sahsa calms her down and explains that there are thieves who pretend to be dead in order to sneak into caravans, and Leila, who is kind, doesn't want to let it happen. When Leila stays silent, Aladdin comments that she has a scary face but she cares about her friends, she just answers "Well, thanks". Then, Leila asks Aladdin about his reason for heading through the desert and hears that he's looking for treasures like musical instruments and so on. She's surprised that they're "treasures". Aladdin says that he's doing it to make his friend, Ugo, happy, what makes Leila smile. He then releases Ugo from the flute, making Leila completely shocked. She freaks out and asks what it was. She thinks thinks that Aladdin isn't normal kid ignorant about how the world works, but he tamed some strange monster in his flute. She wonders who he is.

Afterwards, she comes back to the caravan complaining that she had to work hard thanks to Aladdin. She says that it's for caravan, though. As she wants to readjust Sahsa's blanket, she finds Aladdin clinging to Sahsa's breast. She quickly tears him off of her and angry, proposes him to sleep next to her instead. Aladdin disagrees, saying that she must be hard with all her muscles, so she takes him and deforms his face. She orders him to not tough Sahsa again. She admits that Sahsa is her precious friend. Sahsa saved her when she was dying in the desert, she was kind to her, and is the first person whom Leila can call her friend. She says that it's the reason she wants to protect the caravan, Sahsa and make her happy. Sahsa giggles and thanks, surprising Leila that she's not sleeping. Blushing, she says that she feels lame having said all of that, but Sahsa reassures her that she knew all of that and adds that Leila is so kind, although Leila denies it. She also says that Leila has strong sense of justice, but when she notices how Leila is embarrassed, she comments that there's no point of it, since thanks to being so close, she knows everything about her. Upon hearing it, Leila remains silent, though her smile starts fading away.

The next day, the people of the caravan discuss which way they should take. They think of taking the route three, which is the shortest, but Leila insists on not doing it, since the thieves have their hideout there, apparently. Just then, two thieves come, much to Leila's horror, and comment that she's survived. They try to strike conversation with her, though she remains silent. Terrifying her even more, the thieves explain that she's a thief, who would pretend to be dying and after being saved, she would lead the caravan to thieves' hideout. Leila tightly holds her clothes and while trembling, she says that although she used to do bad things, once she made "friend", she started to live honestly. However, the head of the caravan explains that they can't trust her anymore. He remarks that she should never again come to them. Sahsa also turns from her and the caravan decides to take the route three, after all.

Later, Aladdin notes that she has to save her "friends". Leila answers that she remembers now; when people were finding out about her identity, she would end her act of friendship, what happened multiple times already. She comments that Sahsa was just another mark. Aladdin asks her if she really means it and she agrees. She says that if she cares too much, she can't do her job. She then says that she will go back to being a thief. Aladdin however tells her that she'll die, as the loss of the trust of her friends make one just wanting to die, and she, to whom it happened so many time, will die of sadness. Aladdin then asks her if she didn't change. He exclaims that she decided to live without telling lies. Leila turns around to face him, crying. She says that it hurts so much. She then kneels down and says that it's too late to save them now, since they have no chances of catching up with them. Aladdin stretches out his hand and says to leave it to them. Leila looks at him surprised yet amazed.

Leila then comes clinging to Ugo's body. While Aladdin and Ugo fight against the thieves, Leila watches him in admiration, thinking that she's never heard of just two people taking off the whole band of thieves, but they might be able to do it. However, Leila touches Ugo, what makes him unbearably red and shy, making him faint. Aladdin then starts urging her to give back Ugo's pure heart, but Leila doesn't understand how it's her fault. However, Aladdin in eventually able to defeats them with Ugo's help. Afterwards, Sahsa comes to crying Leila and they hug. Then, as Aladdin is leaving them, he advice Leila that if she finds something with a Djinn living there, she should be careful since Djinn can be coward. With a smile, she replies "Oh". However, when Aladdin tells her to be sure to not scare them with her scary face, she starts throwing a metal lamp in his direction.
