He pledged loyalty to Dio just because he also had immortality.
Synopsis
History
The scribe Ani is a mercenary hired by Dio Brando to kill the Joestar group in Cairo. He claims that the only reason he is still alive and didn't die from old age a thousand years ago is the existence of his stand, which holds an ancient secret method of soul reincarnation, based on the old mummification method from the New Kingdom era. Because of that, his real identity remains unknown. He pledged loyalty to Dio as soon as he could, because Dio also held "eternal life" for being a vampire and was likely to be the conqueror of the world.
