Chapter 864 The Legacy Of The Summoners
-----
"So the only Summoner before me was Allen?" I asked.
"Well..."
The Divinity Manifestation suddenly glanced behind her.
"How about you accompany me? I will show you the truth as we move through this Ancient Spiritual Treasure, which has manifested here as part of their Legacy."
"...Very well."
I followed her as she flew forwards, the white halls were finely decorated with many statues, they resembled all the Summons I possessed.
Aside from that, at the end of the hall, there was a golden throne, and surrounding it there were three other statues.
The largest was of a young-looking man with eyes filled with conviction, standing proudly behind the throne while holding a huge staff.
However, there were two other statues...
The one at the left showed a cheerful-looking young woman, with short, bobby-styled hair, a witch hat, a dress, and holding a scepter.
And to the right, a gloomy-looking man seemed fixated on the ground, holding with his hands a pair of knives, shadows surging from within his surroundings.
"Did he have a peaceful life?" I wondered, feeling slightly worried of those times, which were worse than the ones from now on.
"He had a wife and a son but died on the last decisive battle against the demon invasion. His sacrifice became the pillar for humanity's survival, as he managed to destroy the Hell Gate, where the Demons were coming from." Said the Divinity. "However, because he disliked standing out and always hid himself, he was never remembered. A forgotten hero that saved humanity before even Hero Allen appeared. Only a few close friends and his family knew of his great sacrifice and amazing strength."
"That's rather sad... So Allen just got all the attention, huh?" I sighed.
"Fufu, well, he was never into it either, it just happened." Laughed the Divinity. "Your powers are similar to the ones Allen manifested. He said he was a reincarnated man from Earth too, unlike Hyung, he was reincarnated into this world, not summoned."
"Another man from Earth?" I was shocked. "Huh, that planet's really a source of summoned souls."
"It just happened by accident, but it is thought that souls from other worlds have a greater affinity with the Legacy of the Summoner than those that were born in this world." Said the Divinity. "Now, the third Summoner, who was born three thousand years after Allen's passing, Henrietta."
"This girl?" I pointed.
lightsnοvεl "Yes! She was a half-elf." Said the Divinity. "A very lovely girl that lived a long life. Her Summons were also special, manifesting in the form of spiritual creatures of the forest. She named the Harvest Summons. She was a genius Alchemist, Crafter, and loved research above all things. She used her Summoning powers to help her little town flourish and discovered the way to imbue Elemental Power into her Familiars, and also how to combine them."
"It feels like she had a rather relaxing life..." I wondered.
"Kind of, however, back then there were still many problems. She was one of the few pivotal heroes that helped humanity get back on track after the Demons were sealed back to the towers." Said the Divinity. "Many of the abilities you have, including the Familiar Egg, are all her creations."
"So I've already inherited part of her legacy too, huh?" I wondered. "Amazing, despite not standing out as much as Hyung and Allen, she did help the Summoners Legacy advance a lot."
"That's right." The Divinity nodded. "And you too, are slowly contributing to this Legacy as well, these new Skills you acquired have never appeared before. The legacy grows stronger with each advancement, and now, it is time for you to get more of their power."
