---Three days later---
Ice Hell,
After spending three hours in Beta Infinity World or three days in the outside world, Lev then got out of Infinity and appeared in the place where he left in the Ice Hell. Nothing comes out of weirdness aside from the gigantic ugly-looking beast lying on the ground with no signs of life within it.
"Looks like it was a very easy task for them." Lev said thinking that the Hellboros were nothing but a child's play to Minamoto, Mamako, and Yasaka. He then just looked at its dead body before getting rid of it since its meat was not edible. Following that, he started looking around to find the others.
After heading out of the Ice Mountain, Lev was immediately pounced down by three beautiful women to the ground. He did not even finish his greeting after Minamoto, Mamako, and Yasaka pushed him to the ground and immediately searched his body wanting to know if he was okay.
"Master, I thought something had happened to you." Minamoto immediately said while looking at Lev worriedly as she brought and buried his face in her chest and let him enjoy it to the fullest.
"Not fair, Minamoto. I also want to have master's face on my chest." Mamako pouted while looking at Minamoto enjoying the moment. She also actually missed Lev a lot despite only three days just passed and so wanting him to pamper alone.
Meanwhile, Yasaka only looked at the three without saying anything as she looked at Lev while biting her lips. Knowing the others, she already knew that their Master was a person surrounded by women and so she was also trying to do her best to get his attention however, she had her own way of doing it.
"I'm fine." Lev replied with a smile before he got up and got free from them as he looked at the towering Wall Penguins and their child. It was now the moment of truth since he had planned on taking them inside Infinity and continuing to live their lives over there.
"I have a world of my own called Infinity World. Would you like to go and live there? I promised to take good care of you." Lev suddenly offered while looking at them. He could actually just use force directly on them, but he wanted to hear their opinions since taking them here would mean that Wall Penguin would finally disappear from the world of Toriko.
"Yu.Yu.Yu.Yu.Yu.!!!!" The small wall penguin suddenly cheered up as it walked closer to Lev.
Lev smiled upon seeing how cute it was, so he picked it up and played with it, but he didn't expect that the Wall Penguin couple would also cheer loudly as if they were telling Lev that they accepted his offer.
"That's great. Now, then. Infinity." Lev took out Infinity since he now finally had their consent. With that, a huge gate then appeared from which the Wall Penguin couple entered happily leaving behind the small Wall Penguin in his arms.
"Ehhh!! Master, just where did that gate go through." Mamako immediately reacted with great curiosity as she looked at Lev with sparkling eyes. She had also seen him enter three days ago and so her curiosity rose to the peak upon seeing the Wall Penguin also go into it.
"It's a skill of my weapon. Now that I think about it, you three still haven't gone to that place well, you will know when the time comes. Now then. Before we leave, we still have a lot of work to do in this place." Lev replied before looking at them with a smile. Since he already has taken a move, he might as well do so to the other beasts in the area.
Following that, Lev then started assigning the work as they dispersed around the area trying to capture one male and female of all the beasts of the place since there was no need to lead them to extinction. Some of the beasts that Lev and his group captured in Ice Hell were, Silver Grizzlies, Freezer Bisons, Growlrus, and Ice Jaguars while the beasts they captured in the ocean area of the place were Sharkcrocodile, Glacier Moray, and some other fish ingredients.
Not long after that, things then ended smoothly. Lev, Minamoto, Mamako, and Yasaka left the place together with the child of the Wall Penguin couple that Lev still named after what he would originally call, 'Yun'. They were now being guided by the Tundra Dragon that Lev decided not to take for since it was the only remaining of its kind.

---Night---
Vegetable Sky,
It was already night when Lev and the others returned back to the Vegetable Sky seeing them now having a feast together outside their house. Aside from them, White Fang, Luna, Amir, Ara, Aquila, and now the newly added Yun were also with them either playing or listening to their conversation.
Looking closely, not even a week had passed but the growth of the young Sky Bisons was very extraordinary seeing them now twice the size of what they originally were, however, as they might be growing at an incredible speed, their mentality was still of that of a child seeing them playing with the young Wall Penguin 'Yun'.
"Rest tonight. We will be seeing your other companions tomorrow." Lev then said. He thought that it was now probably the right time to head to that place after not seeing them for some time. Also, they have to head out once again not just to seek ingredients but also to capture them alive which is a lot of work.
Following that, Minamoto, Mamako, and Yasaka immediately prompt Lev to sleep with them but are rejected as Lev still has something to do. The three reacted and also wanted to follow but Lev ordered them to stay and rest for the night which they could only comply disappointedly.

---Midnight---
In the beanstalk,
Even this late at night, Lev was still wide awake seeing him sitting on the beanstalk just below the Vegetable Sky. It is the only place where a person needs to climb in order to reach the legendary Vegetable sky and it was known as the 'Stairway to Heaven'. Together with White Fang, he was actually waiting for something despite the raging thunderstorm that was happening.
Lev's only purpose in getting down was to capture specific flying beasts living in the area after he sensed earlier while eating that there was a thunderstorm happening below which is the right time to look since they would be seen clearly at that time.
Waiting patiently, Lev and White Fang were already wet seeing them just letting the rain soak them as they kept on looking around. They didn't even bother to move and looked for it themselves as they knew that it would show up sooner or later.
Time continues to run and it's already almost midnight, however, Lev and White Fang finally see their target. They could see that inside the raging thunderstorm, several gigantic and shining bird beasts with a body length of over 12 meters could be seen flying freely in the sky.
They were beasts called the Lightning Phoenix that were capable of living in such a harsh environment. They have bright gold feathers all over their body, and wings shaped like lightning bolts that have crimson feathers on their upper wings. They also have a long spiky purple tail and a black granivorous beak with four eyes and three spikes protruding on each side of their neck, and on top of their head, have two spiked crests.
Using the system, Lev then immediately peeked through their statuses to locate which one was male and which one was female however, he was not trying to use violence this time since these gigantic bird beasts were peaceful creatures. He would only use force when he had no choice but to do it.
"Let's go, White Fang." Lev said before he rode on top of White Fang wanting to greet the Lightning Phoenixes flying in the sky. Following their sudden movement, he also spread his aura wanting to gain the attention of the Lightning Phoenixes.
After that, the flock of Lighting Phoenixes suddenly make a detour and fly over towards his direction. It should be night at the moment but in spite of how dark the place had become, it felt like there was a sun around seeing how bright the light of the flock of Lightning Phoenixes was emitting.
Not long after that, there were now a total of twenty Lightning Phoenixes around Lev and White Fang looking at the two of them curiously. There were even young ones among the group who were now flocking and circling around them while the adults were looking at them seriously.
"Lightning Phoenix, I call you here asking for a favor. I would like to take two of your kind, I hope you would allow me." Lev said peacefully while looking at the largest Lighting Phoenix of the flock thinking that it might be the leader among them. He did not know what they were doing here but it must be related to the young ones.
"Schreeeecchhh!!!" As if the Lightning Phoenix understood, it immediately screeched loudly making the other Lightning Phoenixes fly before it attacked Lev by releasing lighting energy from its feathers.
….Boom..Boom..Boom…..
The sudden attack of the Lightning Phoenix caused a great disturbance in the area. Though it allowed the young ones to fly closer to him, it didn't stop him from behaving cautiously. Upon knowing Lev's intention, it immediately attacked thinking that he was planning on taking some of their kind.
"Sigh. So, we cannot talk peacefully about it. Well, it doesn't matter." Lev said before the mist covering him disappeared showing his new form now as he felt like using brute force was the only way now.
After using Tails Activation, several huge ice blades started forming in the stormy sky and it was making the Lightning Phoenixes become wary of what was happening, especially the largest one among them.
"Fox Rain" Lev followed before the ice blades started moving toward the leader of the Lightning Phoenixes. He doesn't need to target all of them, the leader is all he needs so he focuses his attack on it trying to end it once and for all.
….Boom….
Seeing the incoming attack, the leader of the Lightning Phoenixes created several bolts of lighting and added to its advantageous area, it destroyed all the ice blades coming after him before he looked at Lev who was already out of sight.
"Universal Breathing: Honoikazuchi no Kami." It was only brief seconds but a dragon in the form of lightning appeared after Lev passed through the leader of the Lightning Phoenixes before seeing it falling down with its whole body smoking after his feathers could not take on his attack.
"I only need one male and a female. Now, who would it be?" Lev, getting caught by White Fang, then looked through the other Lighting Phoenixes who were already flying away wanting to stay away from him after seeing how he killed off their leader.
Following that, Lev then, as promised, only took one male and female Lightning Pheonixes to Beta Infinity World and let the other escape. White Fang, on the other hand, was ordered to look after the dead leader of Lightning Phoenixes since it would be a waste not to eat such high-level ingredients. After settling everything, Lev and White Fang then headed back to the Vegetable Sky to rest up.

Bathroom,
After being soaked by the rain, Lev decided to take a shower in his room. The place was very quiet since Minamoto and the rest were not around after ordering them to stay with Sakie for the night. Wanting them to have some kind of women talk especially since they were all mature to do any kind of stuff.
"Hmmm. I thought I made it clear a while back that you have to rest since we will be out on a journey. How come you're still awake?" Lev muttered while taking a shower after a person suddenly appeared on his back. With the smooth fur touching his skin, he already knew who it was, but he still didn't turn around and continue washing.
"Heheheh. I have been waiting for this opportunity, Master." Yasaka, who came inside with no clothes, replied with her tails already moving and tangling around Lev's body before hugging him from behind.
