: His "spells" are actually just physical movements so fast and powerful they appear magical, such as "Muscle Magic: Gaia Burst" (which is actually just throwing a projectile very hard).

In the series Mashle , Mash Burnedead is the primary example of this trope. Because he was born without magic in a world where it defines status, he relies entirely on physical strength.

: Mash typically wears heavy magic-sealing wristbands that suppress his strength. Removing them is a significant "power-up" moment, revealing that his baseline feats (like slapping away spells) were performed while heavily restrained.
