The Result of the Companions 

"Huh? You want to exchange Qilnats for merit points? That's not an ordinary exchange." Said the man in charge of the Armhands Exchange Office, not knowing the identity of these six.

"Yes, you do that, right?" Minos asked with a smile on his face.

"Yes, we do. But to be honest, the exchange isn't good. Since we value merit points more than Qilnats, the conversion factor is twice as bad as if you were to exchange merit points for Qilnats." This level 107 alien told the group.

Usually, guild members would come to this place to get resources to use outside the guild on missions or long journeys. As such, the Exchange Office was always willing to deal with those who wanted to leave Qilnats in exchange for merit points. But since merit was the only currency for growth within the guild, the conversion factor wasn't good for people in Minos' position.
