I guess it's because Eyra is the 'dragon's mate'
All of them will have affection for him even though they don't know him
They only know that they need him or they will die of boredom
In novel, it said that dragons without mates will die of boredom
So that's why they will do anything to have him
Is there a reason why it took Yanu a long time to raise his affection points towards Eyra? Even when Yanu realized Eyra is possibly the mate, it still doesn't immediately go to 86 points. Eyra needed a lot of time to get Yanu there, while other dragons just like Eyra for being the mate without knowing him personally.
Because he kept denying it. Yanu had known his mate was in Solath, he had felt it on the day Eyra was born. That’s why he lingered there. But in reality, Eyra had been raised in the Labyrinth City, having been moved there from Solath through teleportation magic. So, to the common folk in Solath, Eyra was simply someone born and raised in the Labyrinth City. That’s why, after their fight, Yanu’s affection toward Eyra surged, he finally accepted that Eyra could be his destined mate.
To add to that, Dragons can sense the moment a mate is born, I say “a” and not “their” because its not set on whose mate that dragon is. Thats why theyre fighting for Eyra in the recent chapter. Yanu was in denial because his senses this whole time was saying that the mate, or atleast the lingering presence was still in Solath. In reality, Eyra was in the Labrynth that had special concealment spells, the same spell Eyra cast on the hideout in the snowy mountains. Thats how Yanu realized that Eyra really was the mate this whole time, and I think thats when the affection reached 100. Before the part where they mutually agreed to be lovers even if they “werent” mates, Yanu was simply sort of playing around with Eyra for fun thats why his affection that time was only 3 even though they were flings, because Eyra ultimately “wasnt” the mate Yanu was looking for. I think theyre waiting for Eyra to have 100 affection towards Yanu before The two of them can be declared mates and belonging to one another, which I think will happen in the next or the chapter after the next when eyra sees Yanu in his true form, which we know why (づ￣ ³￣)づ
