The Abyss does not count time, yet time does not truly stand still.
It had been a very long time since Milton Cheney joined Order Seventeen.
During this time, Cheney didn't completely clear his mind as he had done before.
As for the perception of the passage of time, Cheney also tried to sense it.
Therefore, he was very clear about approximately how much time had passed since he joined Order Seventeen.
"Thirty thousand years have passed, and the enhancement of my demon body is negligible,"
In a barren land, Cheney sat cross-legged on the ground, muttering to himself.
Indeed, it had been thirty thousand years since he was inscribed with the mark of Order Seventeen.
And this time was approximately sensed by Cheney, not a specific period.
How much time had truly passed, Cheney didn't have an exact number in mind.
But he was clear that this time would only be longer than thirty thousand years, not shorter.
