All of Rudeus' potential waifus are no slouches.

She's been using the same original training wand Rudy gave her, but once she was holding his own staff, she had no issue casting strong water magic without him noticing, and very obviously casts silent healing magic, which I believe is a first of what we've seen.

It's just that Eris is way, way better, from all kinds of ways. Roxy is a very seasoned adventurer.

Slyphie might be the weakest of his waifus at this point, but that's literally only from her comparative lesser battle experience.
I'm talking from an emotional pov. Roxy is above Sylphie's here. As much as I like her, she's like a consolation prize for Rudy.

And her being strong and similar to Rudy only increases her red flag: Someone like Orsted might kill her to show Rudy how futile his style is or something.

Unless the story goes for a harem end (well, Sylphie might allow it. Eris and Roxy less so.), I expect the worst for Sylphie.
