Chapter 243 The Battle Resumes, Not the Final Showdown
Dean Bruce nodded. "That's right. We must destroy the black hole as soon as possible to completely defeat Shasbia."
With that, the group immediately set off toward the remote island. After a grueling journey and fierce battles, they finally reached the island.
At the center of the island, there was indeed a massive black hole, radiating terrifying dark energy. Shasbia stood beside it, greedily absorbing the power within.
"Shasbia, your end has come!" Dean Bruce shouted as he and the others charged toward Shasbia.
Shasbia sneered. "You think you can defeat me? How naïve!"
With that, he swung his staff, and a powerful wave of dark energy surged from the black hole, sweeping toward Dean Bruce and the others.
Although Dean Bruce and his team fought with all their might to resist, Shasbia's dark power was overwhelming. They were quickly forced to retreat.
"This isn't working!" Dean Bruce shouted urgently. "We need to find a way to destroy the black hole!"
"But how do we destroy it?" Prolo Hawthorne asked.
Dean Bruce paused, deep in thought, and then a sudden realization struck him. "I remember Minister Cyb saying that Shasbia's power is connected to the core of the black hole organization. If we can destroy the core of the black hole organization, perhaps we can weaken Shasbia's power."
"Where is the core of the black hole organization?" Krupp asked.
Dean Bruce shook his head. "I don't know, but we might be able to find a clue in Shasbia's memory."
He turned to Cyb Louis. "Minister, can you use magic to read Shasbia's memory again?"
Cyb Louis frowned. "I've already read his memory once. Doing it again could cause significant damage to his brain. But at this point, we have no choice."
With that, Cyb Louis cast the memory-reading spell again and entered Shasbia's mind. After some effort, he finally located the black hole organization's core.
"I found it!" Cyb Louis said. "The core of the black hole organization is deep underground, right beneath the black hole."

"Then let's go down and destroy it!" Dean Bruce said.
Just then, Shasbia suddenly launched an even fiercer attack. He seemed to have sensed their intentions and was determined to stop them.
"Everyone, stay alert!" Dean Bruce shouted, as he and the others fought to hold off Shasbia's assault. At the same time, they began searching for a way to reach the underground depths.
After a difficult search and battle, they finally discovered a hidden passage leading deep underground. They descended through the passage and arrived at the core area of the black hole organization.
The area was filled with a complex array of magical devices and runes, and a powerful dark force surged within. At the center of it all, the core of the black hole organization—a massive black crystal sphere—hovered in the air, emitting a terrifying aura.
"That's the core of the black hole organization!" Dean Bruce pointed to the black crystal sphere. "We must destroy it!"
With that, he waved his staff and launched an attack on the black crystal sphere. The others followed suit, channeling their magical energy and firing it toward the sphere.
However, the black crystal sphere seemed to have a powerful defensive shield, and their attacks had no significant effect. Meanwhile, Shasbia continued to absorb dark energy from the black hole, growing stronger and stronger.
"This isn't working!" Dean Bruce shouted anxiously. "We need to find a way to destroy the black crystal sphere!"
At that moment, a mage from the Herbert family suddenly spoke up. "I remember reading in my family's ancient texts about a magical circle that can destroy a magical core. But that circle requires special materials and a complex incantation to activate."
"Then what are we waiting for? Tell us what materials and incantations are needed!" Dean Bruce said urgently.
The Herbert family mage quickly explained the required materials and incantations. After hearing this, Dean Bruce and the others immediately split up and began searching for the special materials.
After a challenging search and collection, they finally gathered all the necessary ingredients. Then, following the instructions of the incantation, they began to set up the magical circle designed to destroy the magical core.
As the magical circle took shape, a powerful magical energy began to surge within it. Dean Bruce and the others could feel the immense and terrifying power of the magic.
"Everyone ready?" Dean Bruce asked.
The others nodded in agreement, signaling they were ready. Dean Bruce took a deep breath and shouted, "Activate the magical circle!"
At his command, the magical circle erupted in a burst of dazzling light. A tremendous wave of magical energy shot from the circle, rushing toward the black crystal sphere.
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion rang out as the black crystal sphere shattered under the force of the magical power. A massive surge of dark energy erupted from the black hole, but it was quickly consumed and dissipated by the magical force.
"Done!"
Dean Bruce shouted, his voice filled with excitement. "We've destroyed the core of the black hole organization!"
Seeing this, Shasbia was struck with panic. He never expected that Dean Bruce and the others would be able to destroy the core of the black hole organization. His power began to rapidly weaken, and his body grew unsteady, as if on the verge of collapse.
"No! This is impossible!" Shasbia roared. "How could I lose to you?!"
"Shasbia." Dean Bruce smiled lightly. "You're too arrogant. You thought you were invincible, full of tricks, but those who walk the path of evil always meet their end."
Dean Bruce's words made Shasbia's face grow even darker, and his eyes flashed with a mix of resentment and madness.
"You think this is enough to defeat me for good? How naive!" Shasbia suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, his voice thick with insanity. "I still have one last card to play!"
With that, he swung his staff fiercely, and a surge of even stronger dark energy exploded out, sweeping toward Dean Bruce and the others.
"Watch out!" Dean Bruce shouted, quickly rallying the group to unleash their strongest defense spells. However, Shasbia's dark power was too overwhelming, and their defense was shattered almost instantly.
"No!" Dean Bruce cried, seeing the dark energy rushing toward them. Despair filled his heart. Were they really going to die here?
In that critical moment, a blinding light suddenly streaked across the sky and struck Shasbia directly. He let out a scream as he was sent flying, crashing hard to the ground.
"Who is that?" Dean Bruce exclaimed, looking up in surprise. A mysterious figure, dressed in an ornate robe, hovered in the air, coldly staring at Shasbia.
"That's... President Tia Nars!" Prolo Hawthorne shouted in excitement.
Tia Nars slowly descended to the ground, her eyes cold and emotionless as they fixed on Shasbia.
"Shasbia, your end has come." Tia Nars spoke with a chilling calm.
Shasbia struggled to rise from the ground, his eyes filled with fear and despair as he looked at Tia Nars.
"You... how are you here?" Shasbia stammered, his voice trembling.
Tia Nars did not answer him. Instead, she slowly raised her hand, and a powerful magical force began to coalesce in her palm.
"Goodbye, Shasbia." Tia Nars whispered, and with a swift motion, she unleashed the magical energy toward him.
Shasbia stood no chance against the overwhelming power. He was struck instantly, and his body disintegrated into a cloud of black smoke, vanishing into the air.
"It's finally over..." Dean Bruce sighed in relief, watching the place where Shasbia had disappeared.
The others also relaxed, their faces breaking into smiles. They knew the hard-fought battle had finally come to an end.
Tia Nars walked up to Dean Bruce, smiling as she patted him on the shoulder.
"You did well, Dean," Tia Nars said. "You've made a huge contribution to the magical world."
Dean Bruce scratched his head awkwardly. "Oh, it's nothing. This was a team effort from all of us."
Tia Nars smiled and then turned to address the others. "Alright, now that the battle is over, we should head back. You've all worked hard."
Everyone nodded in agreement and followed Tia Nars back to the Magic Academy.
Upon their return to the academy, they were greeted like heroes. Students gathered around them, expressing their respect and gratitude. Dean Bruce and the others were also honored and rewarded by the academy's leaders.
However, Dean Bruce knew that although this battle had ended, the peace of the magical world still needed to be protected. He made a silent vow to himself to grow stronger and contribute even more to the magical world.
Meanwhile, in a distant place, a mysterious figure silently observed all that had transpired. A complex light flickered in his eyes, as if deep in thought.
"Dean Bruce..." the mysterious figure murmured, his voice low. "You truly are an interesting one. But our contest has only just begun."
With that, he turned and vanished into the darkness, leaving behind an unsettling silhouette.
On that day.
Alice suddenly approached Dean Bruce and said, "Professor Dean, I need to confess something to you."
"What is it?" Dean Bruce asked, furrowing his brows. He couldn't quite figure out what Alice was up to.
Alice took a deep breath, her eyes filled with determination. "The truth is... I'm not actually a real student here. I was sent by Elvis Donimo as an undercover agent to infiltrate the academy."
At hearing this, Dean Bruce was struck with shock, though he kept his composure on the outside. "Go on," he said calmly.
