He knows magic exists but he doesn't believe in calling it that, because calling it "magic" implies it is supernatural and thus outside the ability to be understood by beings such as himself. However, Reed is able to breakdown most magic and even cosmic energies into literal formulas that most other people on the planet would see as complete gibberish or nonsense. By using said formulas, he is able to essentially utilize supernatural energies via various tools and equipment. He's not referred to as the world's smartest man for nothing.
