"————"
In the cave, as Reiger’s words fell, what returned was not the eager questions of others but a subtle silence.
The three sitting on the haystack exchanged glances before finally turning to look at Reiger.
Among them, so had a sharp gaze.
Among them, so had eyes full of scrutiny.
Among them, so hesitated to speak, as if they wanted to say sothing but didn’t know how to say it, their faces twisted in dilemma.
In such a situation, Reiger simply shifted his gaze to the little girl on the right, whose eyes were filled with scrutiny.
"You are Leonardo Da Vinci."
Reiger’s overly direct words not only made the girl freeze, but Alberon also showed a surprised expression.
"Leonardo Da Vinci?" Alberon said in surprise, "Is it that one? The one acclaid as a universal genius?"
Altoria and Matthew looked utterly baffled.
The two of them, one an elf from the Folklore World and the other with all mories lost, naturally wouldn’t know who Leonardo Da Vinci was.
He was a celebrity active in the 15th to 16th century Europe, a rare genius in human history who brought significant influence to modern human civilization.
So called him a wise hero.
So called him an all-encompassing sage.
In his lifeti, he was a powerful magician, though his achievents in magic were just a part of his uniquely endowed talents.
Besides magic, he was proficient in science, mathematics, engineering, natural history, music, architecture, sculpture, painting, invention, weapons developnt, and many other fields, even considered an authority in these areas.
Especially in painting, he had left behind myriad renowned masterpieces such as the "Mona Lisa" and "The Last Supper," which were his works during his lifeti.
As a Servant familiar with pan-human history, Alberon naturally recognized this universal genius who had left a significant impact and fa in pan-human history.
Therefore, knowing that this little girl was Leonardo Da Vinci was why Alberon appeared so astonished.
Not until Reiger appended a phrase.
"More accurately, she is an artificial spirit created by Leonardo Da Vinci, inheriting all the mories and techniques of the universal genius, a puppet left to work in Chaldea."
Reiger’s candid statent made everyone’s eyes widen.
"A puppet?"
The crowd looked at Da Vinci in astonishnt, making Da Vinci lower his head to hide his expression.
And the girl’s reaction made Reiger’s eyes flicker slightly, his gaze becoming thoughtful.
Chaldea had once summoned the Servant, Leonardo Da Vinci.
However, that universal genius had sacrificed himself in a battle Chaldea had had to face and was no longer in Chaldea.
However, as a substitute, the Servant Leonardo Da Vinci had activated an artificial spirit as a contingency plan before dying, awakening the puppet that inherited all his mories and techniques.
So, although this little girl was a Servant, she differed from ordinary Servants; she was not a past hero summoned from the "Seat" but Leonardo Da Vinci’s shadow, a replica of her.
Thinking of such things, Reiger suddenly turned his attention away from Da Vinci and looked towards the gloomy handso man sitting on the left.
"You are Tristan."
When Reiger called out this na, this ti, Altoria finally reacted violently.
"Tristan? Is he Tristan?" Altoria said in utter astonishnt, "The Tristan I know?"
The Tristan known to Altoria was naturally only one.
He was the lord of New Darlington in Fairy Country, the adoptive daughter of Queen Morgan, the Elf Knight Tristan.
This na, unlike Leonardo Da Vinci, was not only known to Alberon but was also famous throughout all of Fairy Country.
However...
"He certainly isn’t the Elf Knight Tristan you know," Reiger glanced at Altoria and said calmly, "The na Tristan was originally his; that Elf Knight rely usurped his na."
"The real na of that Elf Knight is Bawan Xi. The na Tristan was bestowed to her by Morgan to enhance her power."
"In other words, the Elf Knight Tristan we know is just using the real Tristan’s na and power, while the original owner of those is the man before us, one of the Knights of the Round Table, the real Tristan."
The Knight of the Round Table, Tristan.
This figure was also part of the legend of King Arthur.
He was a man who loved music and singing, his strings capable of killing as well as pleasing people, complented by a beauty said to captivate even elves. Various stories based on this knight erged under various circumstances and spread widely across the world.
His life was filled with tragedy; his mother died in childbirth when he was born, and his love affair with the woman he loved was deed illicit, leading to many twists and turmoil, ultimately ending tragically.
Thanks to this, after the Arthurian legends spread widely, Tristan was considered a symbol of tragic love, and many poems and plays with him as the protagonist erged and spread, arguably becoming more famous than the Arthurian legends themselves.
