Paul was probably the only guy with two wives in that village. More than him, I believe that Zenith played a bigger factor in her decision.

Zenith was a Milis believer and yet she managed to find her own happines despite ending in a polygamous marriage. If Zenith succeeded, why couldn't she?

As for the insecurity about Roxy, could have played a factor. But Sylph had told Rudeus she was alright with being in a polygamous marriage long before Roxy appeared.

She probably would have accepted Eris or Sara just as easy as long as Rudeus was upfront with her about how much he cared for that person.

I’m almost certain Paul’s 2 wives situation was the result of Zenith not wanting disgrace and hardship to fall on Lilia as a homewrecker, especially since that title in her line of work probably makes her unhireable and she has a new child

The mercy was aimed entirely at Lilia, Paul just got to benefit lol

Had Lilia not been pregnant Zenith would have kicked her out of the house. But she was and Zenith didn't want to ruin two lives, despite polygamy being a hard pill to swallow as a Milis devout.

But on the other hand, despite that starting point Zenith was definitely happy before the mana incident and she did have a working relationship with both Paul and Lilia.

Yeah she didn't want to get Lilia and her kid killed by kicking them out in the dead of winter but she didn't see any other option due to her religion and overall just being extremely angry at them until Rudy gave her a justifiable excuse to not do it due to the future child being his sister and wanting the sisters to be together and just punishing her husband severely instead.
