Peter Grill and the Philosopher's Time (ピーター・グリルと賢者の時間)

The three of us eating dinner together... Brings back memories!

Mmm, tasty!

Don’t go slinging your soup everywhere, Gobuko.

Well this sucks...

Oh, for Pete’s sake... She just won’t leave.

How are we supposed to jiggle his giblets now?

By the way, Big Bro.

I have a question about our meal...

Who made all this stuff?

Wh-what?

I mean, Gobuko couldn’t have made it.

And just look at your kitchen.

It’s, like, totally spotless.

And cooking was never really your strong suit, was it, Big Bro?

So who made it?

Don’t worry, I’ll handle this!

Wait–!

With the way it’s plated, I can’t help but feel like a woman made it.

A-as a matter of fact...

CRAP!

I’ve gotta think fast, or else my goose is cooked!

Come in!

I-I apologize for not coming to greet our guest earlier.

I’m the one who made dinner.

P-Piglette...?!

I’ve been recruited as a temporary employee of the Yakeppachi Warriors Guild.

My name is Piglette Pancetta, and I’m a nutrition consultant.

Lady Lucy Grill, I’ve heard wonderful things about you.

It must be fate that brought us together today.

Which is why I’d like to ask: Will you join our guild?

What?!

Join a guild? But I’m...

Oh, where’s the harm?

In fact, I’m currently teaching the other guild members how us goblins use our spears to fight!

Please?

Now I get it.

If we can convince his younger sister to join the guild...

...we might be able to separate the two of them.

Well, if you insist, Gobuko...

Guess I’ll be hangin’ out here for a while, Big Bro.

That smile...

Why do I have a bad feeling about this...?

So you’d like to register with the guild?

In that case,

I’ll need you to write your full name here...

After that, you’ll take the rank exam.

Here you go.

Thank you very much.

No way!

You’re Peter’s little sister?

The one famous for being a vermin hunter? THE Lucy Grill?!

Th-that’s right...

Lucy’s super-duper strong, too!

Then she would be the perfect partner for a one-on-one sparring session.

Oh, Lady Luvellia!

I already have a fiancée named Luvellia-senpai!

Aren’tcha tired of soundin’ like a broken record?

Besides, we’re in danger!

Do you understand the severity of the situation?!

If she were to find out–

Then let’s strike while the iron is hot, just in case.

Shall we help ourselves to a jar of nut butter?

We appreciate your cooperation, Sir Peter.

Knock it off, you four!

I mean it this time! Seriously, this isn’t a joke!

L-LUVELLIA-SENPAI!

And go!

She’s got good form.

And she’s not bad with a sword.

But...

Is she pregnant?

Give it up already, Senpai.

Backed into a corner...

There’s nowhere left for you to go.

This makes checkmate.

NO, LET ME GO!

That was impressive.

But I should’ve expected as much from Peter-kun’s little sister.

Nah.

You really know your way around a sword, Luvellia.

I couldn’t do half the stuff you do.

Lucy-dono...

Please be honest with me.

I feel weak. I’m sure you noticed it, too.

Yeah, I guess so...

It’s hard to explain, but it’s like your movements were sluggish...

Is there any chance you’re... pregnant?

Pregnant?

Um...

Luvellia, have you and my brother considered having kids?

Oh! Yes, we’re right on track.

Really?!

And I’ve been praying every single day in the hopes that we’ll be blessed with children.

I knew it!

That means I’m finally going to be an aunt!

Big Sister!

Ba-thump, ba-thump...

Say hello to Auntie!

Lucy-dono? What are you doing?
