[Item Name: Secret Pocket Watch]
[Item Grade: Legendary]
[Item Attributes: 1. Holder can check 10 minutes into the future every three natural days.]
[2. Holder can choose 10 minutes of the past every 30 natural days to be sealed in the pocket watch and the time period will be erased from the timeline.]
[Item Remarks: Peeking into the future can alter the past? That's wonderful! But I still want the Time Stop Pocket Watch …]
Chen Ze's lips twitched as he gazed at the pocket watch in his hand. The effects of this item were incredible and could even be considered as a godly artifact.
Every three days, he could check the future ten minutes in the future. He could also seal ten minutes of time and erase it from the timeline.
Any one of these effects was quite good and had many uses, especially the second one.
But the problem was that Chen Ze couldn't use the pocket watch in the restaurant. There was no reaction when he used it and it even emitted black smoke as though it was saying 'I'm going to die on the spot'.
Chen Ze guessed that the magical ritual must have blocked the effect. However, Chen Ze didn't understand why the magical ritual given by Hastur and the magical ritual given by Time Wrap could be used.
In the end, Chen Ze concluded that the effect of the pocket watch was too large, which caused the magical ritual to suppress it.
"But the Time Stop Pocket Watch … Is it the Time Stop Pocket Watch that I'm imagining?" Chen Ze stroked his chin as he recalled movies and animes called 'Time Stop Pocket Watch' …
"What exactly am I thinking?" Chen Ze shook his head violently. This thought was too dangerous.
However, Chen Ze immediately revealed a foolish smile, although it was only for a moment.
"Cough, cough … I'll keep it. Perhaps it will be useful in the future." Chen Ze shook his head and kept the pocket watch in his cupboard.
"Manager, I'm here for dinner. Are there any high-tech items?" An evil and chaotic voice sounded along with the chime of the wind chime.
Chen Ze rolled his eyes at the magic circle that appeared around him. He poked his head out and said, "Nyarlathotep, please retract your aura."
"Sorry, it slipped my mind." In the dining hall, Nyarlathotep returned to his familiar poker face and sat down.
Betty, who had just recovered from the suppression, immediately went over and poured a glass of lemon water for Nyarlathotep.
"What's there to eat today?" Nyala seemed to be in a good mood. She had a smile on her face.
"Everything is on the menu, but I need your help with something." Chen Ze was overjoyed. Nyarlathotep's appearance meant that there was still hope for his business.
"Sure, I'll take it as payment for this meal. But I still want to eat something first." Nyala waved her hand nonchalantly. Frankly speaking, if Nyarlathotep didn't want to be a mad scientist, she could have conjured many things.
"I'll have eel rice with a bowl of soup, some skewers and beer." Nyala was quick to order.
"Sure, do you have any requests for the soup?" Chen Ze nodded. None of the dishes were difficult, except for the soup that had yet to be requested.
"Hmm … it's delicious. Also, I'd like a lot of other dishes," Nyala replied after some thought.
Chen Ze was taken aback. He began to ponder a question. What kind of soup could satisfy this condition?
The first thing that Chen Ze thought of was a very famous dish in Hua Xia. Although it was called a dish, it had a lot of soup.
"Should I try making Buddha jumps over the wall?" Chen Ze stroked his chin. It was a good idea, but it was too complicated and required specialized kitchen utensils.
In the end, Chen Ze decided to make Buddha jumps over the wall next time.
Chen Ze shook his head. Then, he took out the eel and started to grill it slowly.
After the eel was grilled, Chen Ze thought of what to make for Nyala.
"Make borscht." Chen Ze nodded. He thought it was a good idea.
Borscht was a very famous soup, and the taste was also very good. Although it was a thick vegetable soup from Ukraine, it had been improved by Huaxia and became a special soup of Huaxia.
There were some tricks to making borscht. For example, if one didn't like borscht too greasy, they couldn't cook it with beef broth. Instead, it was best to dilute it with water.
Nyala sat calmly in his chair. His eyes shone brightly, as if there were stars in his eyes.
"That one is coming. Manager, don't you want to move your lover here?" Nyala suddenly asked.
"What's wrong?" Chen Ze was confused, but he still asked Betty to bring out the eel rice and borscht.
"All things in life. I think the One for One will be very interested in your restaurant." Nyala looked at Chen Ze with a smile.
Chen Ze was stunned. All things in life? The name sounded familiar, but Chen Ze didn't know much about the Cthulhu Mythos, so he couldn't remember who she was talking about.
"What do you want for your skewers?" Chen Ze didn't care. No matter if it was an Outer God or a Great Old One, Chen Ze believed that his restaurant could handle it.
"… Anything will do." Nyala looked at Chen Ze playfully.
Chen Ze nodded and returned to the restaurant. He took out the skewers he bought last time and started cooking them slowly.
"Mr. Manager!" Jehanne pushed the door open and ran in with a happy smile on her face.
"Jehanne? Come here and sit down. "Bette pulled Jehanne to a stop and led her to the side.
Betty looked at Nyala cautiously. Good, this one didn't care about Jehanne at all. She was fiddling with something small in her hand.
"Sister Betty, this is a flower weave!" Jehanne took out a basket full of flowers. It was obvious that Jehanne was working very hard. There were even more flowers in the basket than before.
"Jehanne, what do you want to eat?" Chen Ze walked out with a smile, holding a plate of barbecued meat skewers in his hand. As for Betty, she went to pour some Thunder Ale for Naiya.
"Mr. Manager, as long as there's pizza, Jehanne will be happy!" Jehanne looked at Chen Ze gratefully. Chen Ze's mouth twitched.
He hoped that Jehanne wouldn't end up like Andrew. He still liked to chat with Elena and Andrew.
