Chapter 622: Chapter 256 Exceeding Authority (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_3
Soon, Rein had expertly navigated through the splendid garden, arriving in front of the circular statue fountain.
Right behind the fountain was the Sword Bearers Branch task hall.
As he entered the hall, Rein noticed that the number of people ing and going was significantly larger than last time, presumably due to the increased number of tasks issued by the branch following the attacks by the Sea Clan and the Cult.
Naturally, there were also more personnel handling the task handovers.
Despite the crowd, the hall was not noisy or chaotic.
Most acquaintances simply nodded to each other or exchanged a few words in hushed tones, looking either solemn or in a rush.
It seemed that the recent events had indeed placed considerable pressure on the Sword Holder Mingster Branch.
As a newer, Rein naturally did not have many people to greet.
The few he was acquainted with, like Remiel, were currently at the frontline acpanying their captain, Battista, who was undergoing emergency treatment.
However, once Captain Battista’s condition stabilized, the rest of the Rock Team would soon return to Mingster; Battista alone would need to e to Minter for follow-up treatment.
Rein chose a counter with relatively fewer people in line and waited.
There were three people in front of him, two handing over tasks and one receiving a task, each with only one task, so after about seven or eight minutes, it was Rein’s turn.
“Good day, my lord, may I help you?” a beautiful female clerk said, smiling and bowing as she saw Rein approaching.
“Hello, please confirm the pletion of my probationary task,” Rein said, handing over his bronze badge.
Hearing that Rein was there to confirm the pletion of a task, the clerk’s smile grew even sweeter as she respectfully took the badge with both hands, saying:
“Certainly, my lord, please wait a moment.”
“I have located the record, my lord. You were previously assigned as a Public Security Advisor in the Mingster Trade District. Yesterday morning, the Mingster Administration Office had already sent the task pletion letter to the branch.”
At this point, the attentive clerk paused because she realized that the duration of Lord Rein’s probationary task was only a few days, yet it had been pleted.
This was very unmon, as most Sword Bearer tasks lasted a month.
However, there were exceptions.
Certain distinguished Sword Bearers would have situations like this.
“The branch’s evaluation of your task is….eh? Three bronze medals and an additional 500 Merit Points?” the clerk’s eyes widened in astonishment.
Normally, isn’t it just one bronze medal? A slight variation was unmon, and two medals were rarely heard of, especially since it was a task for newly appointed lords…
But this gentleman in front of me…
The clerk double-checked the information and reviewed the task pletion report.
Only then did she realize that the young lord before her had killed a native whose strength was suspected to be parable to that of a Great Knight.
That explains it!
“Is there a problem?” Rein furrowed his brow slightly, looking at the clerk.
Could it be that Lord Javier had not properly coordinated with the Mingster Administration Office on his behalf?
If there were issues with his first task, it would be…
“No! No problem at all, my lord, it’s just that your task evaluation is exceptionally high, which is quite rare.”
“Your probationary task reward totals three bronze medals and 500 Merit Points, please confirm,” the clerk respectfully stood up, handed a document to Rein to sign.
Rein nodded.
He had already been informed of the task evaluation beforehand.
“My lord, you have earned three bronze medals, which qualifies you for an upgrade from the bronze badge to the silver badge. Would you mind waiting for two minutes while I process your badge upgrade?”
“An upgrade to a silver badge?”
“Yes, my lord. Upgrading does not consume any medals, but I need to go to the Deputy of Affairs to activate your silver-level permissions, enabling you to take on subsequent silver-level tasks. So, I ask for a few minutes of your patience here.”
“Hmm, very well,” Rein nodded.
The female clerk quickly took the documents and briskly walked to an office behind the counters.
Two minutes later, the clerk returned at a quick pace, slightly out of breath, as she handed Rein a badge slightly larger than his bronze badge, shining with a silver glow, and said:
“My lord, it has been arranged. This is your silver badge. Please, take care of it.”
“Your task rewards have been recorded. With this badge, you can inquire and use evaluation medals and Merit Points at any Sword Bearers Branch department.”
“Thank you.”
Rein examined it and saw that the silver badge was not made of pure silver but mixed with other metals. The silver sheen was quite beautiful, the image of a knight holding a longsword on the front remained the same, and his name was still on the back.
Then Rein handed the silver badge back to the clerk, saying, “There is also a rescue task that I should have pleted.”
“Oh? Another one?” The surprised clerk took back the badge and began to look it up.
Under normal circumstances, pleted tasks would be displayed.
The clerk couldn’t help but look puzzled.
Oh?
There indeed was one.
This… this is a pleted silver-level rescue mission?
But this lord’s badge authority was just bronze, how could he accept a silver-level task?
The clerk was somewhat confused.
But she was just a low-level employee and naturally wouldn’t question anything. Instead, she processed everything quickly, following the regulations.
