Oh you actually found a English title for it good job.

Since the thread is made might as well make a short summary for chapter 1 of volume 1.

Spoiler for chapter 1 summary:

Story starts with Kazuki waking up his sister, Kanae. Kanae tease's him by trying to get him to kiss her as a motivator for her to get out of bed. A humorous exchange follows and Kazuki is forced to bridal carry her out of bed instead of kissing her.

As they head to school a lot of backstory is revealed in their discussion. Due to Kazuki getting the magic stigma he's forced to go to the magic side. Not only that but because everyone get's the magic stigma at 14, this indicates that his official age is wrong. This makes him younger then Kanae but Kanae still wants him to treat her as the younger sibling (she's deredere like that).

Kanae expresses her distaste for the magic stigma changing so much and says that Kazuki had a lot of potential as a swordsman that's ruined thanks to the magic stigma. Kazuki disagrees and thinks that since it comes to this he shouldn't fight against it and give it his all. He promises Kanae that she'll be the best in the sword faction while he'll be the best at the magic faction.

Since it's Kazuki's first day at school Kanae is giving him a tour of the campus but trouble came up. The VC of the sword said, came running to Kanae to warn her about fights with students from the magic faction. Kanae doesn't want to leave Kazuki alone but is forced to.

Kazuki wonders around the campus for the magic side for a while before meeting the president of the magic side Kaguya (big breasted black haired sempai for those of you that need a image). She takes interest in him and gives him a tour of the magic side campus. Along the way she expresses sediments of getting along with the sword faction and Kazuki agrees.

As their walking Kazuki sense's a disturbance in the magic and Kaguya remarks that he's pretty sharp. Both of them rush to the scene of the disturbance where they witness Kanae bitchslapping two magic side students. Both of them were trying to chant but Kanae's to fast for them and doesn't give them the chance. Kaguya breaks up the fight before it can get worst. Although the two magic side girls still want to go at it they aren't dumb enough to oppose the strongest on their own side. They back down and Kaguya tries to berate Kanae who ignores her and greets Kazuki instead. Kaguya pushes the issue however and she and Kanae get into a argument. Kazuki's unfortunately (or fortunately depending on your perspective) caught in the middle.

Due to Kauya and Kanae's fight the tour completely fails and the enrollment ceremony begin. The important part here is that it reveals the history of magic. Basically a genius invented the philosopher stone which can grant magic however the genius was killed and the world now has a limited amount of stones since it's secrets died with the genius.

Enrollment ends with Kaguya showing off the power of a summon by killing a large dragon.

Kazuki expresses awe at that level of power and wonders if he can make it.

End of chapter 1.

More will come latter.
