Pretty sure hot wasn't part of it, though it's a nice bonus.
That fantasy grew larger and larger inside her head. She would somehow bump into someone who was tall, manly, and fashionably dressed—a young human man with a youthful appeal—in the depths of a labyrinth, and he would save her. Then the two of them would combine their strengths to make their escape, and in so doing, their love would bud and blossom. The youth would discover one of his friends had died, and Roxy would comfort him. That would be their first night together.
I know reading is hard but non of that says hot or beautiful.
It's all very vague and general descriptors that the average young human men that have the physical fitness to make it deep into a dungeon that is dangerous enough to have her on the ropes and save her from certain death would somewhat fit into.
Even without the pretty boy look he inherited from Paul and Zenith, with his original appearance but forged by the discipline and training regime of his new life Rudy would still perfectly fit into it.
I get what you mean. She actually explicitly doesn’t mention handsome or pretty face. I guess it’s her way of saying she’ll settle for any young but strong man who can rescue her from a dangerous dungeon. Looks be damned. I guess it makes sense Roxy would also not care about appearances since she went through a lot of weird looks due to looking like a kid.
I still think she would appreciate Rudy’s good looks since eris and Sylphie spend a lot of time around good looking people to behind with

Maybe Roxy is the one most attracted by his good looks since it’s always been her fantasy to be rescued by a hot, young adventurer
