He knew I was not the son of someone he owed a debt to...... but rather
the son of a thief.--- But nevertheless, he took me in. Those "givers" truly act
strangely.
I'm sure that if my mother were a noble, she would have done the same
thing.--- And when I think of that, it fills me with rage.
But I digress. Essentially, the reason George Joestar held onto the letter
from Dario Brando was not because he felt he owed something to him, but
because he merely did not discard private communications. It was only a habit of
his as a gentleman.
But seeing as his mansion was so huge, such things were easily possible.
It had already been sealed at the point I sent it, so I had not read the
contents of the letter, but I never imagined my father would have written the
symptoms of his illness in the letter.
This is what the letter said:
"Right now... I am ill.
"I know I probably don't have a long time to live.
"I don't know what the illness is, but I have non-stop 'heart pain,'
'swollen fingers
"When I die, would you please take in my son, Dio?
"Unlike me, he is an excellent boy. I'm sure he won't cause any trouble
for you." ---Well, the latter half is really nothing but pointless nonsense.
The important point is the former half where he describes his symptoms
which were exactly the same as Lord Joestar's.--- Of course, it was the same
poison being fed to him by the same person, so it would have been strange if the
symptoms were different.
Jonathan found this letter by pure coincidence.
From what I heard, it was while he was studying the stone mask. One
could perhaps make the supposition that the stone mask has its own will and
purposefully exposed my plan.--- Perhaps the stone mask itself sought me so it
could make me a vampire afterwards.
