Chapter 12
*KNOCK!* *KNOCK!!*
Madara finished bathing a few minutes after Astrea run away from him and now he was dressing up he heard a knock on the door.
"Who is it this time?"
Madara quickly put on his clothes which consist of his usual black shirt with the Uchiha clan crest on the back, black pants and bandages around his shins. Around his waist, he had a white belt, adorned with pouches that contains many ninja weapons.
Madara went downstairs and open the door and it was Cynthia who was standing there instead of Astrea and she was also holding a tray full of food. Madara raised his eyebrow in confusion but understood why when he smelt the scent of food from the girls' house.
"Good morning, Madara. We made breakfast and I brought you your portion of it, here take it. Lady Astrea told us we will be going to the nearest around here so we will be ready by the time you are done with your food."
Cynthia pushed the tray into Madara's hands and left after saying those words. Madara took the tray inside the house and closed it.
[Forty-five minutes later]
Madara and the girls were done with their preparations and were ready to set on their journey to the next village. You could currently see the girls waiting for Madara in front of the wooden houses while Madara place some Fuinjutsu seals on the houses.
"We will be walking to the village since you people don't have broomsticks to fly with so be careful of your surroundings and don't stray from the group, now let's go."
Madara said to the girls after he was done placing seals on the houses. The reason he said that was because the forest was filled with magic beasts so if you are not strong enough you will die the moment you step into it. Although most of the beasts don't attack for no reason that can not be said for those magic boars because those stupid animals charge at anything they see for no reason.
The girls nodded their heads and started walking after Madara with Cynthia leading them.

It's been a few hours since Madara and the group started their journey and now you could see girls resting under a big tree while Madara was on top of the tree keeping watch of the surrounding.
Madara has senses spread out through the area around them to see if there were any threatening animals nearby but found none.
"Hey, system."
Madara asked called out the system after he suppressed his senses and set down.
[DING: How can I be of help? Madara.]
"Can I use the magic of this world? I have been thinking about it since yesterday."
Ever since Madara found out that this is the black clover he has been thinking about it whether he could use the magic of this world or not so he decided to ask the system instead.
[DING: Yes you can use the magic of this world, Host. There is no difference between Mana and Chakra. You have been using magic since the very beginning, host. The only difference is that you manipulate the elements through the use of hand seals while the people of this world don't.]
The system explained to Madara that he has been using magic all along.
"That makes sense since Chakra and Mana are the same energy with different names... Wait a minute, if I can use this world's magic doesn't that mean I also have a magic attribute."
Madara nodded to the system's explanation but then he realized something so asked the system.
[DING: Indeed the host has a magic attribute of this world.]
"Then why didn't you display it when you showed me my status for the first time?"
Madara asked because he couldn't understand the system.
[DING: That's because the host hasn't awakened it yet.]
Now it was Madara's turn to be dumbfounded because he has been training since the day he woke up in this world yet he haven't awakened it.
"What do you mean I haven't awakened it."
[DiING: The host can only awaken his magic attribute when he receives his grimoire. The host is in this world but the laws of the world don't after the host.]
Madara went quiet when the system said the reason why he hasn't awakened his magic attribute and started thinking.
'So it doesn't matter how hard or how long I train I will not be able to awaken it so I have to wait and see what magic attribute I will get... Wait doesn't that mean I will get two grimoires.'
[DING: Yes host you will indeed receive two grimoires. One for your Ninjutsu and the other for your Magic attribute of this world.]
The system answered Madara's thoughts even before he was able to ask the system himself.
"Damn! How awesome would that be."
Madara was a little overjoyed when the system confirmed his guess about the grimoires he was going to receive.
"Madara!"
Madara's happy time came to an end when he heard his name being called out. He look down at where the girls were resting and saw that they were all up and ready to continue on their journey.
Madara jumped down from the tree and looked at Cynthia who called him while also looking at Astrea who was standing behind Cynthia with her head bowed down.
"Are you girls done resting?"
Madara asked and the girls nodded their heads to his question. Madara then looked at Astrea and asked if she was okay.
"Is everything okay with you? Astrea"
Astrea nodded her head to answer instead of speaking which made Cynthia and Madara look at her with a strange expressions.
Madara shook his head and started walking. Cynthia and the girls also started walking after him leaving Astrea who was in her own world alone.
"Lady Astrea, are you coming or not?"
Astrea was quickly brought out of her thoughts when one of the girls called out to her.
"Huh! You guys are going?"
Astrea came to her senses only to see that she was the only one standing there while the others were ahead of her.
'I spaced out again didn't I?'
She thought to herself and quickly run to catch up with the other before they left her behind.

The group arrived at the entrance of the village. The village had a huge wall surrounding it.
"Girls, I welcome you to Sosshi village."
Madara turned around and said in a grandiose manner.
