God-Tier Extraction Talent: Reincarnated in a Game-like World! Chapter 443 443: The Real World [2/2]

People who had never touched a gapod before could recognize him instantly, because his image had beco tied to the ga itself, and talk shows invited analysts to explain how a non player character had beco a global icon.

Kids copied his hairstyle. Teenagers argued over his builds. Adults debated his strategies during lunch breaks.

And investors started asking one dangerous question.

How much was Broken Heaven worth.

It did not take long before financial firms answered it. Realm of Ascendency officially licensed the Broken Heaven character model, branding rights, and promotional usage under the company, and the valuation report that followed shocked everyone, because the number attached to a single in ga character was five billion dollars.

And when that figure leaked to the press, the market reacted instantly.

Headlines exploded across every platform, analysts appeared on live panels trying to explain how a ga that had not even reached six months could produce an asset worth that much.

Studio executives stared at their phones in silence while reading updates, because five billion was not marketing hype, it was backed by engagent data, viewership numbers, rchandise projections, and much more.

A simple character.

Five billion dollars.

For a ga barely half a year old.

The entertainnt industry finally understood.

It was not just the AI. It was not just the chanics. It was Broken Heaven.

He was the pulling factor. He was the magnet. He was the reason casual viewers stayed. He was the reason sponsors lined up. He was the reason Realm of Ascendency dominated every chart.

And once they realized that, their strategy changed.

Agents were sent. Emails were drafted. Lawyers prepared contracts. Talent scouts reached out through interdiaries.

They tried to poach him. So offered to use his na and character design. So promised streaming contracts. So talked about exclusive dia rights. So hinted at brand ambassadorships.

But every attempt hit the sa wall.

Broken Heaven was already licensed. Realm of Ascendency owned the character. They could not touch him directly.

And that only made things worse.

Because now they were not just fighting a ga company. They were fighting a brand that had locked down its biggest asset.

…

High above the city, on the top floor of a glass tower that overlooked several districts at once, the assistant developer stood quietly beside a long window, holding a tablet with live charts scrolling across the screen, while behind him the CEO of Realm of Ascendency sat at a dark desk, calm as always, one eye hidden behind a single spectacle lens as he reviewed reports without raising his voice.

"Market resistance is increasing," the assistant said, keeping his tone respectful. "Entertainnt stocks are down another three percent today. Rival gaming companies are bleeding capital. They are blaming us openly now."

The boss did not look up. "Let them."

"They have identified Broken Heaven as the core driver," the assistant continued. "Multiple firms are attempting indirect contact. So are trying to buy influence through secondary channels while others are pushing regulators."

The boss finally stood and walked toward the window, stopping in front of a massive billboard across the street that displayed Sir Broken mid fight, red hair clear even from this distance, electric blue eyes sharp on a frozen fra, and his voice stayed steady as he spoke.

"They are late."

The assistant nodded. "They are also reacting to the valuation leak. That five billion shocked everyone."

"That's good," the boss smirked. "That should scare them. Because they are not certain how their audience would receive Broken Heaven in a different setting like movies and ani. I'm sure they won't poach him. No one wants to take that risk."

The assistant hesitated for a mont before speaking again, this ti in a less professional tone. "Sir… is it really right to eliminate him?"

The boss did not turn. His gaze remained fixed outside.

"He is giving the company enough popularity just by existing," the assistant added carefully. "Without Broken Heaven, engagent will drop. Even internally, so teams are concerned."

The boss adjusted his one eyed spectacle and kept looking at the billboard. His voice was cold.

"He is a threat. He is not under our control. And anything we do not control can disrupt future plans."

The assistant lowered his tablet. "What happens after that?"

"He will be replaced," the boss said. Though his face was not visible, his tone carried amusent.

The assistant's eyes narrowed slightly. "Replaced… by who?"

"By soone we design," the boss replied. "Soone who follows paraters. We will design him to act like him and give him all the buffs to stand out. We will do it so fast that the public will not even notice."

He walked back to the desk and tapped a file open with one finger. "More deleters have already been sent to the other world. A headquarters has been established. Right now, I need you to stop worrying about the future and focus on how to get rid of Broken Heaven before it is too late."

The assistant took a slow breath. "Understood."

He was about to leave when he suddenly paused. "Should I reveal to IceQueen that White Phantom and Sir Broken are the sa person? She has been showing interest."

The boss shook his head once. "No. I need her to track him. She is closer than anyone. Let her continue. We catch him when he least expects it."

The assistant straightened and nodded. "I will keep it confidential."

The boss leaned back in his chair and folded his hands. "Also start preparing for the upcoming events."

"Events?" There was slight surprise in the assistant lead developer's voice.

The boss glanced once more at the giant billboard outside, then back to the live player statistics on his desk.

"The ga has been quiet for a while," he said calmly. "It's ti to spice things up once again."

…

Thanks to all those who support God Tier Extraction with their valuable Golden Tickets and Power Stones. I really appreciate it. I want to apologize for the poor update. It was because of real life issues, but I am gaining back my stride gradually.
