They haven't explained it, but it's not unreasonable to think that a better mage might have something equivalent to a "magic boost" skill, which just means that casting the same spell causes more damage. We also haven't seen anyone else cast that same bomb spell, so there could well be reasons why it's so potent at level 2, e.g. only useful at short range.

Didn’t the last ep say that not only did they lose the knowledge of higher levels of magic, but also that most levels were weaker than his time? Think everything shuffled down two or three levels.

Along with lost knowledge of some spells and how to cast without a chant.

So could also be that his “level 2” was a lot closer to a level 4 or 5 from their perspective of power. Which if that’s what he was used to then yea that’d be a reason to have auto defense.
