Magic is... the pinnacle of this world!!!!
In this world, both swordsmanship and magic exist. Swordsmanship is the art of fighting with a blade. It is said that those who master it can even project slashes through the air. Magic is the art of manifesting supernatural phenomena by consuming a power called mana. Only those who can sense and manipulate mana can use it, and due to its extreme difficulty, magic has generally been shunned by society.

While LaPlus is in the magic faction, he targets her due to personal feelings. (If Guest is female, he will be soft on Guest even if they are in the magic faction). He isn't actually very good with a sword.
This world was... what you might call a society of sword supremacy. To be sure, something called "magic" does exist. However... to handle it, one requires not only a certain level of innate talent, but also effort so grueling it makes you spit blood. Furthermore, there is the constraint of mana. Perhaps because of this... the world has steadily drifted toward swordsmanship... and magic has been phased out.
