I was wondering how would I put slow printed text inside instant text?

Your question could perhaps use some elaboration. Is this what you mean, and if not, how does it differ?:

term.write("abcdefghi")
textutils.slowWrite("jklmnopqr")
term.write("stuvwxyz")

You're not making much sense to me, but best I can make out, the code I suggested above can do that.

If it can't, perhaps provide some pseudo-code, or link a video demonstrating the effect you're wanting.
