This unforeseen turn of events took him by surprise, especially because Fitz, also known as Sylphy, was believed to hold the key to his condition. Nevertheless, it soon became clear that his presumptions were not entirely accurate. Having previously experienced a similar predicament with Sara prior to enrolling at the Ranoa Academy of Magic, resulting in immense heartache and anguish, Rudeus expected a comparable reaction and outcome when dealing with his ED.
However, things took an unexpected turn from what he had anticipated. Sylphy, demonstrating her understanding nature, conveyed love and concern towards him. Instead of allowing him to succumb to sadness, she provided him with an inspiring sense of hope and unwavering support. This reassured Rudeus that there was still ample time to discover a remedy for his illness.

Upon their return to Ranoa, Sylphy was pleasantly surprised by Ariel and Luke's caring nature, as they eagerly offered their assistance to help her and Rudeus. Thanks to the rare and valuable potion provided by Luke, Rudeus and Sylphy were finally able to indulge in their love, adding a heartfelt dimension to the story.
The following morning, Rudeus awoke to find Sylphy missing from his side, triggering painful memories of Eris' abandonment and causing him to burst into tears. However, his anguish quickly turned to relief when he discovered Sylphy standing before him. He tightly embraced her, tears cascading down his cheeks, and joyfully revealed that his erectile dysfunction had been cured.

As expected by fans, Rudeus decides to join Ariel and support her cause. He is eager to assist her in any way he can, especially since Ariel and Luke played a vital role in bringing him and Sylphy together. With his erectile dysfunction cured, Rudeus declares that he will eventually leave Ranoa to prioritize his family's well-being, who were separated during the Fittoa incident.
Ariel's encouragement led Rudeus to reconsider his decision, highlighting the fact that such a choice would ultimately result in bidding farewell to Sylphy. Unexpectedly, Rudeus, without hesitating, expressed his desire to wed Sylphy, catching her completely off guard and causing her to panic. In the end, they made a sincere promise to look after one another.Expand Tweet
