A Restaurateur's Mild Fathoms, part 2 (after battle)

<I'm having visions I've never seen before!>

<These must be his memories.>

They might be recollections that he partially had lost due to the shock.

Phew… I've finally found it. I thought he'd keep his top-secret recipe locked up tight and away, but he was using it as a trivet to eat ramen…!

I - Is that my restaurant's recipe? How did you get your hands on it?

I sent a spy. Did you really think a part-timer willing to come in an hour early to help with prep on minimum wage would actually exist?

But why - Why would you…!

I had no choice! If I don't meet the quota HQ demands from me, my restaurant will be shut down!

The… The recipe's still in my head! Two spoons of sugar! One and a half spoons of soy sauce, then add minced garlic…

It's no use - I'll have it burnt in the concept incinerator. Any trace of the recipe will be gone, including the memories in your head.

NOOOOOOO!!

Two spoons of sugar! One and a half spoons of soy sauce…

Like I said… You should've shut down your restaurant when I warned you!

Two… S-Sugar… No, was it sugar? I can't remember a thing…

I never liked that pest. Knew he was rotten from all the N.S.O.P. signs plastered over his walls.

If it was put in the concept incinerator… That recipe is as good as gone…

What's a concept incinerator ab -

…Nevermind, Ishmael. Your face tells me I don't wanna ask about it.

Pardon?

The concept incinerator…

It is a trusted method of permanently erasing a technology.

For instance… It has the ability to make it as if Miss Faust never invented Mephistopheles.

Does it turn things back in time?

No, not quite. It simply… is oblivionized, as though the brain had never conceived it.

Any documentation, photography, the tiniest bits and parts of its composition, and even Miss Faust's own memories will be dimmed and obliterated.

The effectiveness and range of the incineration will depend on the price of the product.

It's true…! I can't remember if the marinade was based on pepper or soy sauce… How much sugar or salt I should put… Nothing's left in my head! None of my customers can remember how it tasted!

There's no use in trying at this point…! It's all useless…

Hmph, you're soft-hearted. Eunbong's? You should do away with that tacky name and give your restaurant a better title.

Eunbong is my mother's name…

Oh…

T.W.H.

…I suppose tacky can also mean a friendly warmth.

The problem is still your weak will!

<Just… Why are you so eager to start fights…>

Come! I will fix that helpless attitude of yours!
