Layla continued speaking to Eren while she was playing with her vials. Eren's crisis didn't affect her mood.
'Rankers have hubris!
Don't search for reasons behind every nutcase ranker's actions. Chances are you won't always find something that makes sense to you.
You and not even my master are exceptions to this rule. It's the way you channel your hubris and turn it into something positive or negative that sets your path as a ranker.
Peace has softened the rankers of this generation. What I see is a welcome change. Slaughter them, Eren.'
Eren stayed vigilant as he listened to Layla without saying anything. He was trying to appear as normal and carefree as possible. He had thought of changing his route but Layla told him that he was now surrounded by a lot of array traps. They could go off as soon as Eren comes into the vicinity.
