Merit Point Issue

Hello! I recently finished a Besieged run while set to Limit Mode and received 15000 limit points at the end of the wave, but I didn't receive any merit points. Here's what it looked like before:

Limit Points
5492/10000
Merit Points
19/30 P

The Undead Swarm has retreated.
Arkanios obtains 15000 limit points.

Limit Points
492/10000
Merit Points
19/30 P


I tried relogging but it's still displaying the same status. Perhaps it has something to do with the merit point cap being raised from 20 to 30 and somehow glitched in-game? Anyone else encounter something like this?

Character: Arkanios (Elvaan Male) [DRK80/SAM40]
Server: Phoenix
Platform: PC/Windows 7 Home Edition

4. Undead Swarm retreated, received 15000 Limit Points after the battle.
5. Checked my status afterward; Limit Point total had changed from 5492 to 492 to reflect the 15000 gain, but Merit Points remained the same at 19/30.
