Eh, you misunderstand my meaning. You don't need to call it anything. You don't call it anything when you lift a weight, but you still use work to exchange kinetic and potential energies, and your body strengthens for it (slowly of course). Magic let's your will affect the world directly, using some aspect of the spheres or whatever metaphysic you want to fluff. When you warp the world, this happens under your will. Since this energy is exerted and controlled by your will, it manifestly doesn't harm you nor have any chaotic effects, but like a torn muscle strengthens, the touch of the spheres leaves flesh stronger for its presence.The problem with that is that is assumes a second fluff magic system behind the mechanical one.
I'm no writer so I'm sure you could say it better, but that's my head cannon for why HP climbs with level. The same kind of effect that allows a fighter to become a true blue super human with seemingly no magic. Something is effecting their flesh that only exists in a reality connected to magic and the spheres no?
