Chapter 561: Chapter 241: Special Approval (2-in-1 Large Chapter) _2

The key issue was that he didn’t even have a single bronze medal yet!

Moreover, this was without considering the need for a large number of Merit Points when making exchanges.

Clearly, this was not an amount that could be achieved in the short term unless he took out a loan!

“Okay, thank you.”

“At your service, my lord,” the young female clerk said as she rose and bowed again.

Rein did not exchange anything and quickly stood up and left.

….

A few minutes later, he arrived at the administrative building.

If he could secure a loan for enough medals and Merit Points, Rein naturally opted to first enhance his strength through a loan, as far as the interest was concerned, he could accept it as long as it wasn’t too exaggerated.

The empowerment department was located on the first floor of the administrative building, easy to find.

Rein quickly found his destination, the office of the “Empowerment Department,” as indicated by the door plate.

However, when Rein arrived, he found the door open, with voices faintly audible inside.

As he entered the room, Rein saw that there were already several newcomers from this batch of Sword Bearers inquiring inside, including two figures he knew well.

Upon hearing footsteps from behind, a few people couldn’t help but turn their heads to look.

“Oh? Rein, what brings you…” the redhead Evelyn exclaimed in surprise when she saw Rein at the door.

Evelyn and Rein were old friends.

She naturally knew that Rein had been employed in an imperial department before and shouldn’t be lacking in Merit Points in the near future.

“Lord Rein, what brings you here?” Viery, who was inquiring at the time, quickly stood up and greeted him with a smile.

The other newcomers also stood up, smiling broadly.

After all, the impression Rein had left on these newcomers was too profound; the elegance of that hammer strike still lingered in their minds, indelible.

Rein nodded to them and smiled slightly.

He hadn’t really expected Evelyn and Viery to be here as well.

“Lord Rein, why don’t you go first,” Viery said enthusiastically, always admiring Rein’s strength despite his young age.

The other newcomers naturally had no objections.

This put the freckled young female clerk who was processing Viery’s inquiry on edge.

She didn’t understand why this considerably younger-looking youth would command such respect from several Sword Bearers.

Rein waved his hand and said with a smile, “No need, just follow the regular queue.”

“Come on, Lord Rein, please, after you,” Viery said as he made room, still smiling.

The other people also stepped aside at once.

This… faced with smiling faces…

Alright then!

A certain quote from a celebrity in Rein’s previous life suddenly came to mind:

‘Before you’re famous, you’re surrounded by all sorts of people: those who are manipulative, those who mock you, those who play dirty… but once you’re famous, suddenly everyone around you is nice, every face brimming with smiles…’

“Thank you, then I’ll accept the offer,” Rein said, bowing slightly.

Once Rein was seated, he inquired, “Hello, I would like to inquire about a loan.”

“Of course you can, my lo… Lord, please take a seat,” the freckled girl stammered a bit, clearly nervous.

“Could you please show your badge?”

“Sure.”

After Rein handed over his bronze badge, the freckled girl took it with both hands, her face showing surprise— a bronze badge?

However, she merely flinched and then immediately started checking.

“Oh?” The freckled girl seemed to find something surprising, her face showing astonishment.

“My lo… Lord, please wait a moment, your loan limit is too high and requires approval from my superior.”

Huh?

Hearing the words of the freckled girl, the others couldn’t help but look over, expressions of curiosity and astonishment on their faces.

Although the others had not handled any loan transactions yet, the redhead Evelyn had just done so, with a limit of a thousand.

Moreover, it was the same freckled girl before him who had processed everything, without any issue like Rein’s occurring.

“Huh? What’s my limit?” seeing the surprised expression on the freckled girl, Rein couldn’t help but ask curiously.

“Lord, your limit is a full ten thousand Merit Points,” the freckled girl managed to calm herself down somewhat and crisply reported the figure.

Hiss~

A collective gasp of surprise filled the room!

Especially Evelyn, who had already completed her transaction, now covered her mouth with her small hand, her face showing shock!

She had just processed hers and thought it was a large amount.

Now, comparing her limit to Rein’s…

This was truly…

Evelyn instantly felt that her own limit of a thousand was no longer appealing…

Rein immediately raised an eyebrow, impressed by the limit!

With this ten thousand limit, he could exchange for all the items he needed; it was more than enough.

It seemed Kurman hadn’t been speaking nonsense that morning.

It really depended on potential, or rather, the limits were probably set based on a person’s later repayment capabilities…

After all, great potential, strong abilities, meant stronger capabilities to earn Merit Points in the future!

“Lord Reine, I will now go to ask Deputy Minister Melanie to come over, please wait for a moment,” the freckled girl clerk respectfully asked.

“Yes,” Rein nodded.

The freckled girl clerk started pacing away quickly with short steps, and soon, a smart-looking woman walked in.
