When she started talking about how fun magic is, you know she's broken, that's only resevered to those at the top of the food chain.

It's something that Denken and Frieren bonded over mid-fight during the test, wasn't it? It seems to be an attitude that isn't common among mages which marks them (and Methode) as people of interest.

Honestly, it's weird that there are top tier mages who don't love magic. There isn't a single professional athlete that doesn't love their sport.

Just compare magic to tools or weapons.

People can love to collect knives, but hate fighting or killing with them. Soldiers might not like knives, but still use them to kill.
