Scene – Lal, Hima, and the army stand before a forest. In front of them is an entry gate leading to a portal, guarded by goblins.

The army and buggy stop.
Koshi: Princess, we’ve arrived.
Hima: So this is Secret Sky?
Koshi: No, Princess. This is the Green Land Forest. The Secret Sky City lies within.
Hima: I see.

Ruyo approaches the guards. There are three of them.
Ruyo: We’ve come from the Eluto Kingdom’s palace. The Princess is inside this buggy. We need to enter.
Guard 1: Do you have an entry pass?
Ruyo: Entry pass? What’s that?
Guard 1: Those with permission to enter or leave hold a special card. If you have it, you can use this portal to reach Secret Sky. If not…
Ruyo: If not?
Guard 1: Then you must go through the forest, avoiding monsters and beasts, and find the Secret Sky on your own.
Ruyo: We don’t have a card.
Guard 1: Then sorry, you’ll have to go through the jungle—if you still wish to enter.
Ruyo: But the Princess of Eluto Kingdom is with us! If something happens to her—?!
Guard 1: These are the rules here. If you have complaints, take them to the King, Queen, or the leaders. Otherwise… leave. Or I’ll be forced to attack. (serious tone)
Ruyo: Tsk… okay.

Ruyo returns to the buggy.
Lal: What happened, Captain?
Ruyo: Princess, I’m sorry. We can’t pass. Without permission, we’ll have to go through the forest.
Koshi: Didn’t you tell them the Princess is here?
Ruyo: I did, but they said “rules are rules.”
Hima: I see… so we have no choice but to go through the forest.
Ruyo: Hmm.
Lal: Wait. I can do something. I can directly teleport everyone inside Secret Sky.
Hima: Really?! (shocked and excited)
Ruyo: You can do that?! (shocked)
Lal: It’s one of my skills. Everyone, get ready.

Lal closes his eyes. A golden glow appears, then vanishes with a crackling sound.
Koshi: Huh? What happened?
Lal: I… can’t use my skill. Looks like there’s a barrier.
Hima: Makes sense. This is Secret Sky. Not just anyone can enter so easily.
Lal (thinking): I never imagined my skill could be blocked… Does this mean I’m not as powerful as I thought? I can create any skill I want, but still couldn’t crack this barrier… Tsk!

Lal: Wait. I’ll get us permission.
Ruyo: What? I already told them the Princess is with us, and they refused. What can you do?
Lal: Just watch.

Lal walks toward the guards.
Lal (thinking): I’ll just use my skill to get permission. Simple. (overconfident)

Lal: Hello.
Guard 1: Hello.
Lal: I need to enter Secret Sky.
Guard 1: Do you have a pass?
Lal: No.
Guard 1: Then you can’t go in. Sorry.
Lal: Skill—Hypno.

All the guards are hypnotized by Lal.
Lal: Can I enter without a pass?
Guard 1: Of course.
Lal: Hnn. (smirks lightly)
Lal: Okay, everyone come. The guards agreed.
Ruyo, Koshi, Hima: What?! (shocked)

Everyone approaches. Lal steps in first—but the moment he touches the portal, he’s shocked violently.
Lal: Aahhh! Ssshh!
Hima: Lal! What happened?! (tense)

Hima and Koshi are still inside the buggy.
Lal: I… got shocked.
Lal (thinking): Even though I have a pain-killer skill, I still took damage! I can’t enter… Just how powerful are this kingdom’s King and Queen?!

Lal: Looks like we’ll have to take the forest route.
Ruyo: Didn’t I tell you already?
The group begins moving into the forest.

Lal: …Yeah, I messed up. Sorry.
