**I just wanna appreciate the 51 years of life carried in Roxy's eyes and smile in this frame.** 

Roxy for the first 14 years of her life grew up in the migurd tribe village practically deaf to people of her own race because she didn't have the telepathy most migurds were born with. She was always insecure and upset whenever a fellow migurdian tried to talk to her and she'd get mad in her monologues saying she couldnt understand them. Feeling like an outcast her whole life in the place she was born she set out at 14 leaving without saying a word and wanted to explore the world and find a place where she belonged in it. 

Then for the next 23 years she faced both harsh prejudice and discrimination against demons once she got to the central and milis continent

\- everything was unfairly overpriced for her from inn lodgings, food, be it food stalls etc just because she was a demon. 

\- Being declined from certain jobs, quest and shunned by most people because she was a demon or mistaken for a child which led to her difficulty in finding parties to do quest with.

\- one time in the milis continent one of the guards thought she was a kidnapper and forcefully put the pole of his spear to her neck when she was just guiding back a beastman girl home to her parents from wind port to millishion. After the beastman girl vouched for her, Roxy is on the ground coughing.

The guard let her go, pointing to where the residential houses were, Roxy bowed and thanked the guard for directions while getting up. The guard walked away and said "demons walking around a human country such a fucking eyesore" 💔 that  broke me after seeing everything she'd been through and was going to go through after that. 

\- she always lived a frugal life and she had to because of how overpriced things were for her and it stayed with her (evidenced by the store scene in last ep where even if her hat was worn down over the years she refused to buy the new hat she was looking at because it was expensive but not because she couldnt afford it) 

\- even when she got to the ranoa magic university there was still some prejudice against demons among the students. 

**Her main dream life after graduating from the ranoa magic university was to spoil her sweet tooth more often and not have to worry about financial troubles anymore 😭😭** that's just sad to think about and as an adventurer living from quest to quest requiring her to travel all over the central continent for years she literally was unable to have like a long term place to stay. 

Then when she was 37 she got a quest to be a magic tutor, then thats when she met Rudeus, Paul, Zenith and Lilia, the first people and place where she truly felt what being in a family was like. 

Roxy saved Rudeus and cured his fear of going outside and meeting new people and his trauma from the bullying incident in his past life when she took him out on the horse ride throughout the village. 

Without Roxy, Rudeus likely wouldn't even meet Sylphy because he'd be a shut in and afraid to go outside still. So he wouldn't meet her and save her from the bullies. He wouldn't meet Eris either because he only got to meet Eris because Paul sent him off when Rudeus requested for Paul to find him a high paying job so he could go to the Ranoa magic university with Sylphy which he only knew about because of Roxy. 

Roxy enabled the very foundation for Rudeus life and kickstarted his journey in the best way possible in and it lead him to become who he is today, a man who truly cherishes his family and does his best to protect these moments with them. 

 

I see many put Sylphy and Eris over Roxy and honestly I see why, they're  best girls and Rudeus loves all his wives equally. But to me I know who I've been rooting for since the beginning when I started this series in 2024  (I read all the LNs and redundancy I just wanted to keep this mostly anime only and about Roxy's backstory) 

 

Roxy is my ideal

Roxy is best girl!!!💙

Best girl😭💙
