I think it is a very tricky question...

Explanation:

I would think that it comes from the Kinetic Energy of the object which is converted into mass according to:
#E=mc^2#
So that if you try to increase its velocity it will go into increasing its mass (through the conversion of Kinetic Energy) without allowing it to pass the limit speed #c#.
...I think...!
