Could it be because it was injured?
Seeing their concern, Hanjun explained, "The injuries he sustained have already been treated. It's just that he's still too young for a dragon. He's now resting to regain his proper size, so just let him sleep well."
Master PungPong and the others nodded in understanding, petting the young dragon, suddenly realizing what they were doing.
This was a dragon!
They were actually able to touch a young dragon.
As they saw its belly rise and fall with each breath, the contrast was striking: the elegance of an adult dragon and the adorableness of a young one created a vivid disparity, making them feel a world apart from Butch's usual image, which left the players in awe.
The name of the dragon quickly attracted many onlookers.
They all knew that if Butch were to wake up now, he wouldn't let them touch him.
This meant that now was the perfect time to pet the dragon.
