He doesn't stop petting it despite that.

In the skill-based VRMMORPG "Unlimited Online," the protagonist (male) aims to create a petting-type VRMMORPG for some reason. For the sake of his pets, he fishes up the lake master, and clears area bosses to craft a proper brush. It's planned to be a normal "Tamer" playstyle. ※I've created a settings page and turned it into a series. It's still in progress, but please feel free to check it out if you'd like.
