Therefore, `uname -r` (which freebsd-update largely relies on) may show a lower patch level than `freebsd-version` (which is always updated). If you were actually expecting it to upgrade your system to 13.4: you need to run a) `freebsd-update upgrade -r 13.4-RELEASE` followed by b) `freebsd-update install` to install the new kernel, then c) reboot, then d) `freebsd-update install` again to install the new userland, then e) update your packages, then possibly f) `freebsd-update install` a third time to delete obsolete files, then finally g) reboot again. Note that if you're upgrading from one minor release to another of the same major release (like 13.3 to 13.4), you can usually skip the first reboot and there usually won't be a third `freebsd-update install`.
