Other phrases allow for non word for word translations. This one should as well. In English "then" can mean "at that time."

Why is the robot speaking (always but particularly here) speaking so fast? It's hardly understandable!
-i do agree that there should be a speed option-
but it's made to immitate natural speaking. Usually the "в" is practically silent and "время"is pronounced more like "vr-ee-m-uh" and the "ya" you hear is the word after the quick "vreema," that's why it seems faster, there are more letters that are blended in a sense in real speaking

Not too strange. At this time is present. At that time is past. She WAS at school. Past.
