    Yo go to a new movie rental place and ask, "how many movies can I rent out" He will reply " you can only rent out three movies AT A TIME" This doesn't always mean you rent three come back rent three more.
    That's exactly what it means, provided you turn in the previous 3. Same with leves.

    Not always dude. It is called a "short form" phrase. Pretty much a vague response to get the point across. Honestly it is correctly stating it. Npc need to give vague responces because it can't give individule info per person.
    Again at a time don't alwaus mean "right away". It is also saying per occurance. I can give more examples.

    Like humans generally give birth to 1 child at a time.
    Does this mean, we give birth non stop? bo it doesn't. But that every time we do get pregnet abd have children we normaly have 1.

    Phrases always have more then 1 meaning.
    Like when you say, i'm going to run over to the store and grab milk.
    Are you literally running down to the store? not always.

    Again this is just a mis understanding about taking the term to literaly. And if you really need info /clock tells you leve reset and it is posted under the lodestone.
