"What if your magic staff accidentally breaks in the wilderness? Are you going to stand there like an ordinary person waiting to die?"
"The academy is training our physical fitness, making us more agile and enduring, so we can withstand intense battles without dying unexpectedly!"
"And I heard from my father, the emperor, that training in this most primitive way can better enhance one's overall magic power."
"Our mage's body is quite miraculous. Even this ordinary running makes the growth of magic power much faster than those arcanists who spend all day meditating and cultivating!"
