Root cause

Rewind before Dio ends up in Mercura, "Tsk so annoying like who the hell goes to class when there is a storm!? Damn university!" he said, filled with anger while staring at the window, rain pouring nonstop until the time seemed to stop. When he heard a whisper, "Mi summone, pay heed to my call". He stood up on the frozen bus, staring at the unmoving passengers but the whispers kept repeating until a bright light engulfed him whole. 

When he came back to his senses, he was in black robe and standing on the land of Mercura also known as the land of business and wealth. Traders come and go, merchants shouting to catch some customers like a fisherman catching fishes. Food stalls are too tempting even the spices and aromatics makes you drool. He just mindlessly walked until he reached the current predicament.

Fastro the king of Mercura just remained quiet, not sure what to do. His thoughts are "Is this a god? A demigod? A messenger of god? Do his other realm mean that his from the realm of gods? Or was I just overthinking?", Fastro looks at Dio who is happily eating his food like there is no tomorrow, "No it can't be right? This piggy like person surely not a messenger of god, wait perhaps this is a test? Oh, god my head hurting!" Fastro rub his temples also losing more appetite to eat. "Hey, your not just going to stay like that right? Come one man just eat at least little!" Dio said enthusiastically, "Say from someone who eats like a pig" Fastro mumbles while hesitantly eats a piece of roasted lamb. "By the way why you guys call me a ghost?" Dio asked his head perking while still eating his meal, "We call you ghost because you are an existent that we are not sure of, you look human to us, but you may not be a human at all, so everyone agrees to call you ghost" Fastro explained in a calmer tone, "Damn you guys treat me like I'm a paranormal thing" Dio said with astonishment, "Well if only you give us notice before you end up appearing so suddenly, you would not come into this dilemma" Fastro reprimanded him, Dio could only pout he knows he can't do that, doesn't even know how he end up here. He just decided to play the part of being mysterious but never saw how complicated his situation is. "Look I apologized alright? But you know there are times that things are unexplainable" he said with trepidation. Fastro raised an eyebrow, craving to know more but Dio doesn't continue talking but just eats.

Mortina- The land of Machinery and innovation

Espia- City of the wealthy people

Efius - City of abandonment/poor

In the foggy street of espia, a carriage halted in front of one of the students of the academy in the city. Two tall men came out, they are both wearing windbreakers, one of them have a monocle while the other holds the tip of his gun inside the hidden holster inside his windbreaker. They both didn't knock and just straight up destroy the door, not caring that they scared off residents. They finally found the student they are searching for, "Kid You better not make this harder than it already is" one of the men said the student quivered, "who are you guys!?" he said, "We are from council (council of the rulers), I'm Artorn and his Becker" Arton said adjusting his grip on his gun, while Becker remained still not moving an inch but his face stern."I DID NOTHING WRONG! IT WAS ALL AN ACCIDENT I SWEAR!" the student plead, "Yet you made a very big mistake, instead of summoning a god, you instead summoned a goddamn unknown entity! you don't know the dangers we are in right now!" Arton said his tone rising and veins in his forehead popping out due to his anger."I'M SO SORRY! PLEASE SPARE ME!" the student kneel and begged but Arton take out his gun, before Becker could stop him, he pulled the trigger....there was a loud bang that echoes all around the house, the residents inside froze in shocked until they saw blood slowly streaming down on the floorboards."You better take this as a lesson or else you will find yourself in efius (the city of poverty in mortina which is hidden) Becker said he just smoke in his windpipe then turned around to leave causing Arton to follow heed, while the student gripped his arm that is bleeding profusely."Next thing to do is hunt down the damn entity, I hope we are not too late.." Arton said his eyes downcast and worried, Becker pat his back and said, "We are agents from the council remember? of course we can capture that entity before something worse could happen.", Arton smiled slightly and nodded, the two get back in on the carriage and went off.
