Entites logical fields

Hello,

Assuming logical fields of an entity are actually views of other entities in the database(according to this MS doc), how can i figure out what's the original table names which holds the logical fields originally?
I tried to check within the entity attributes metadata returns from dynamics web api (version 9.2) and the closest i was able to find was `AttributeOf` property which:

sometimes refer to an entity id which leads me to the entity name through EntityDefinitions API endpoint.
sometimes refer to an entity id which i cannot find in EntityDefinitions API endpoint(such as masterid).
sometimes the value is null.

any additional info will be helpful.
thanks in advance.
