My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calcraft)

"Break the array with another array?" Tatiana looked at Nash, puzzled. The concept was beyond her current knowledge.

Nash smiled and said, "Yes, we'll use an array to break the array. Pass me the carving knife." Tatiana took out a carving knife and some stones.

"Do you have a smaller carving knife?" Nask asked. Tatiana rummaged through her backpack and pulled out a cute pencil case. She opened it to display a row of carving knives. "Pick one yourself!"

Nash chose the smallest knife, where the blade was only as thick as a thumbtack. He then pulled out several thumb-sized white stones from a storage ring.

Tatiana gasped. "Spirit stones?" Her eyes widened in surprise. Carving array patterns on spirit stones could enhance the power of the array patterns significantly. These stones were exceedingly rare. Even with her family's long heritage in the art of array, they could scarcely produce a few.

"Try using your abilities to control the spirit stone," Nash suggested.

"Huh? That might not work, though?" Tatiana waved her hand slightly, and the spirit stone in Nash's palm slowly levitated. It circled quickly twice and then settled back into Nash's hand.

"I really can control the spirit stone!" she exclaimed with excitement, realizing a new potential in her abilities.

Nash smiled. "Get the chair out. Do you want me to carve while standing?" Tatiana quickly pulled a folding chair from her backpack and set it on the ground. Nash sat down, and his eyes narrowed as he started to carve array patterns with skillful precision.

In 30 minutes, Nash carved 15 array patterns-three of the Conceal, Energy, Defend, Shield, and Earth Patterns.
