Healing magic for dad maybe?
She's about to cast a True Blessing; A Blessing which isn't just a light show, but actually improves the skills of the blessed. This is due to her overwhelming amount of Mana and her prayer being heartfelt, not rote. It's also implied that the blessing affects her freinds and family permanently, rather than it eventually fading.

In a twisted sort of way, it's not totally a lie to say that Myne is dead. I keep forgetting that this is someone from Japan who's inhabiting Myne's body, and the original Myne isn't there anymore. In a way, this arrangement is actually kinda fitting.

While I get that it's something that most nobles would consider, it feels fucking insane for Sylvester to admit he had thought of disposing of Myne's family as a way to tie up loose ends, and that his reason for not doing so wasn't "oh I simply couldn't do that to my newly adopted daughter" but just that "oh, yeah she's too powerful and would throw a fit if I did it". Like, seriously?

This whole time he's been built up as a "noble, but one of the good ones" type, but that line basically paints him as just as much of a jackass as all the rest, just slightly more pragmatic in how he goes about things. It paints him as someone who doesn't genuinely care about Myne beyond what she can benefit him with, and would do bad by her if he was able to control her more (which is exactly what the other noble was trying to do here, he was just sloppier about it).

Unless this is just a bad TL/wording of "oh, I was considering disposing of them (faking their deaths just like I'm doing to Myne now)", or a "haha I just wanted to scare them there (for some likely dumb reason)" that kind of sours me on his whole character.

It's not a bad TL.
Spoiler from the LN (it's from a scene that happens a bit later, so maybe it could be in the manga in 1 or 2 chapters later):
Sylvester is just playing a role here, trying to threaten Myne's family to make them clearly understand the situation in which they are (in case they didn't understand it before). Later, in a SS from Sylvester's point of view, where he is only with Ferdinand and Karstedt in the room, he stops acting and says how badly he felt playing the villain in that scene. He really felt bad separating the family like he did.

understandable considering how he loves Ferdinand and realizes the abuse he has gotten and the connection they have. They are good nobles who realize we are all the same regardless of position.

This is such a shitty situation they're in, all because of that fatass that started it all!
The urge to jump into the story, beat all the nobles up and give Myne and her family the happy ending they deserve cannot be understated! T^T
It did get a happy ending, but now the author wants to keep going, and made more drama.
I wished to see it keep going but just chilling, doing slice of life stuff with her gang...
I would love to see her develop her new duchy, watch her build schools for the commoners finally make literacy and books mainstream, and Ferdinand publishing the first academic paper and making his own University, instead she will probably get involved in god shenanigans.

...the fatass only made it happen faster than anyone wanted.
That also gave Silvester the perfect reason to finally get rid of Veronica. Unfortunately it is not apparent at the time, with so little Myne knew about anythinng regarding nobility.
