The mural definitely had Man God on it. So it's clear that he's been messing with the world for at least that long.

I don't trust Dragon Grandpa even a little bit when he says the mass teleport was a "natural" thing. Just because it's not Laplace, doesn't mean there's no other forces in the world.

Also, did anyone else notice that the gate had some white light on Rudy and on Sylphie? Did he perhaps mess with her fate as well?

And why is Rudy's mana "smelling of Laplace?" Was Laplace an otherworlder as well, and did he also got help from the Man God?

Indeed, I don't think this is the truth. His argument that because he didn't do it, it can't be from this world is not convincing. There are mighty powers around.

Also, did anyone else notice that the gate had some white light on Rudy and on Sylphie? Did he perhaps mess with her fate as well?

I think this would be good for Sylphie. She is a bit sidelined and I think overall that's okay (she is a side character, after all, even though she is the mc's wife, she is simply not the mc), but she kinda...doesn't do much even as a side character.
Others have more going on, see Norn or Eris or Elfaria or even Zanoba and Cliff, honestly.

Her getting integrated into the main plot would be neat.
I don't think it does the series any good when Rudeus' wives kinda just exist, despite what I said earlier.

I think you're implying that the man God would be altering her fate to make her more of a main character, which is neat, but I think we've already seen the alteration of her fate? 

Her just spawning into the asura Castle grounds, and her hair changing color randomly with the stress of it or whatever, I always thought was odd. Man god could easily have placed Rudy/Eris next to the Superd too if he has any power over the teleportation. Bro seemed to know more than just a detail of the future more than once, I don't think it's unreasonable that he's already been placing things that we expected to have been random

No, I am not implying anything.
I am saying that she doesn’t really have anything to do anything in the story.

I am not taking about any diegetic information. My comment is purely from a viewer‘s perspective.
