1. i dont think they will ever come up with something cheesy like that. making up a story like this seems too simple and, boring, actually.

it's like saying, "Oh, you beated Black Mage after 9 years of long wait, well SCREW YOU, HERE'S ANOTHER BOSS FOR YAH THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO FIGHT IN 20 YEARS..."

2. that's just like saying he respawned... no, to cheesy. neither wouldn't be logically possible.

3. the black mage was never dead, he was sealed off in another dimension, and the black wings was working on returning him to the current dimension and break the seal.

my theory:

You will be able to fight Black Mage in a 6/12/18/24 expedition with each expidition containing atleast one of all heroes (Much like the CWK). Before entering his chamber, one must fight off his bodyguards, and, perhaps, some of his summoned commanders that are protecting him.

After maybe a year, they will change the Black Mage expedition into a Theme Dungeon, and a great revamp will occur. Black Mage is now dead. The Black Wings have been defeated by the Resistance due to the fact that the great power plant has been cancelled and is no longer threatening the end of Edelstein. Therefore the Resistance is no longer needed, they join the Heroes in the fight for further evil, and we get 3 more Heroes, Demon Slayer, however, is retired.

The Monster Dimensions are all broken, and the Gate of Future along with it's Contents, are destroyed.

The monsters all over the Maple World are all returned back to normal as they were before Big Bang, before the Black Mage's curse over them.

The Cygnus Knights are all released from their posts at the order of Cygnus, except for the Chief Knights, and are recruited by the job advancers of Victoria Island (Maybe a revamp that will merge the Cygnus Knights with the Explorers, making the Explorers stronger?).

All chaos bosses are retired, as they were creations of the Black Mage.

The Commanders are all, as the Nova, turned into playable classes, as enemies of the world, and creates, together with the Nova, the faction (just picking a cool name) "The Black Wholes".

I guess a new story has to be invented after this, or the end of MapleStory, or just a restart of maplestory, though maybe none of this may be fulfilled, I'm hoping atleast they don't directly tells us there's another "big" boss to be killed... sigh.
