Black Mages & White Mages are not illegal however it's the magic they cast which is the issue. However because you pair the mages up with the spells, it is easier to say Black Mages are outlawed rather then these spells belonging to the Black Mage schools are.
To me Red Mages uses a mixture of Conjury & Thaumaturgy which is why it is considered allowed at this point in time giving the lack off evidence to say the craft is too dangerous. However because Conjury falls into the White Magic School and Thaumaturgy in the Black Magic School it is easier and correct in saying Red Mages uses Black and White magic.Â
Now the issue with Verholy and Verflare. Do we really have a idea how far up the Magic School food chain these are? We know that White Mages and Black Mages are able to use them but we have no knowledge of lesser mages studying the job school is able to. For example I would guess that the Lala's in the Thumaturge guild will be able to use Flare, yeah it would be costly to them but no doubt it would be possible.
However what makes Red Mages here different is how they cast, storing Aetheric Energy which they are able to use as a crutch. Â Pretty much a shortcut or work around if you will.
White Magic and Conjury are two entirely separate schools of magic. They are not related in any fashion, and Conjury has nothing to do with Red Magic, as far as I know.
