Tan You shot bolt upright as if shocked back to life. "When did this happen? How long have I been here?"
'It was her own fault. She had been completely focused on the Magic Array, not even needing to eat or sleep. How could she possibly have noticed the passage of time?'
The Dark God said, "Today is the 58th day."
Tan You flopped back down. "That long, huh? Ever since I started looking at Magic Arrays with a mathematical mindset, I've never spent so much time on a single one."
"Of course, this isn't just one Magic Array, or even a single set of them. But I have to admit, now that I've actually solved it, I feel a real sense of accomplishment."
"By my estimate, if I actually start breaking it, it will take at least two weeks. In two weeks, the Edmonds family will realize something is wrong."
Tan You said softly, "Your people should be prepared, right?"
