Frank put his ring back on and was wondering how he should convince the tramp or just knock her out and take her with him when he heard footsteps outside.
Judging from the pace and the man's breathing, Frank could tell that this man was at least Ascendant-ranked. The tramp might be strong, but Frank was still positive that she would be helpless against this one.
Still, it suited Frank just fine—he could take this opportunity to show his chops.

With his white hair and fan, he carried the air of otherworldliness, while his sharp glare left one shuddering in their bones.
"I've finally found you, lady. Now give it to me," he demanded, holding out his hand and clearly confident about his own strength. Nonetheless, the tramp smirked and shook her head. "Sorry, gramps. I have nothing to my name, or you can search this place if you want to!" The geezer snorted in annoyance. "I'm giving you a chance here!" The tramp shrugged, unaffected. "And I refuse to take it.

Why not take him down right here and save us the trouble?" As he slowly walked up to the geezer, the geezer growled, "This ain't your fight, boy. Know your place and leave, or I'll-" Before he could finish, Frank seized him by the throat, lifting him into the air with a single hand!

"The man who killed you," Frank replied and squeezed, killing the geezer instantly.
Behind them, the tramp paled in shock. "H-How did you do that?!" Frank brandishing his ring at her. "This helped. It freezes an opponent, keeping them immobile for a short period of time." "Amazing!" The tramp gave him a thumbs-up.

Seeing that the tramp was no villain, Frank simply told her the truth. "In layman terms, my power comes from a source called the spiritron vein.
Chapter 2340 3 The tramp realized with a start.
