魔法(mahou) - Sorcery
魔法使い(mahoutsukai) - Mage
魔力(maryoku) - Magic Power or Mana (Although Mana is also used to describe magic powers that exist in nature, as opposed to Odo for the magic powers that exist within oneself)
魔術回路(majutsu kairo) - Magic Circuit
令呪(reiju) - Command Seal
宝具(hougu) - Noble Phantasm
固有結界(koyuukekkai) - Reality Marble

I think it's similiar, if not the same, with the what the guys over at insani used?
i believe that 魔術師 is actually referred to as メイガス in the game. at least according to the youogoshuu on the web.

also, the terminology is probably going to get confused later on, since moonlit world has been using 魔法 as magic and 魔術 as sorcery.
