The rain keep on going, making Neev's critical injury even more worse and worse.
Although every single things that was currently happening isn't really helping very, it sure is helping Yuri a lot.
The rain is helping him blur his opponent's vision even more, making his new ability to be even more effective.
False Perspective.
His new ability that he got during the opening ceremony when he falls asleep, waiting for the ceremony to starts.
He get it from talking to Hestia.
It is an ability that allows him to put his opponent's eyes to get covered in darkness and shows an illusion base on what he wants them to see.
The more the illusion is disimilar to the environment he was in, the more the mana he needed.
For example, if you are in a battle and you are in a wide space with barely any obstacles to hide on, and you use this ability to make your opponent believe that he was suddenly in a where he was trapped in chains, a god looking at him, along with millions of armies attacking him, a lot of mana will be needed.
Basically, adding more details and completely changing your perspective to something in order to place it to someone else's perspective.
The only drawback is that it only lasted for 3 seconds, before the opponents vision go back to normal.
'Although that actually helped me too...'
When a person is in a very difficult situation and is getting pressured, changing their perspective suddenly is gonna make their brain process what is happening, and when their brain started to process it, suddenly changing the appearance back to normal is gonna make then confuse and be immobalize for atleast a few seconds.
'I need to finish this now...'
Then, Yuri poured a huge amount of strength on his both legs and dashes towards Neev, who's back is literally vulnerable.
Just as Yuri was about to attack downwards, Neev then suddenly turn to his back, holding his bow hsing his left hand and biting the string, revealing an arrowless fire arrow.
Neev then let go of the bow string and then the fire arrow flew towards Yuri, making his dodged it and Neev then jumped backwards, widening his distance between Yuri.
Neev then stopped, his face darknening, as if concentrating and focusung everything he got to the attack he was preparing to use.
He exhaled heavily and then inhaled all of it, releasing a orange like smoke from his mouth.
He then looked at Yuri, his eyes became orange and his mana enveloping his body.
Fire Magic, The Last Desperation:...
Yuri is looking at Neev's sharp gaze, and then as if a wave of heat suddenly hit his whole body. All of the cold he felt during the rain suddenly dissapeared in an instant and changed to warm, then quicklt turn to his body being in absolute heat, as if he was being burned alive.
That's when he realized, that Neev is fibally at his last desperation to survive.
"The Veil!" Neev shouted, as about a hundred meter radius suddenly got enveloped in a circle like transparent barrier.
Inside rain droplets that drops on the veil quickly evaporated, inside the veil, everything is slowly burning, so as Yuri.
'Crap!' Neev thought, puking out a lot of blood and a experiencing the symptoms of Mana Exhaustion.
It is a phenomenon where one's mana is already at it's very limit but still continue to use their mana to the very extreme.
'I dragged this fight for way too long!' 'No matter, I managed to activate My last ace anyway... I just need to stay low and get out of his sight for the time being and rest...'
"Blurrghhh...!" In the amidst of thinking, Neev fall to the ground and started puking.
The right part of his body stopped functioning, his right lung had given up on him long ago, his legs are shaking and his head is spinning because of the immense blood loss.
'Stay awake... Stay awake... Just for a few more seconds... come on... You can do i--'
SLASH!
Just then, suddenly, Neev's vision was upside down. His eyes that was on the verge of closing just a few seconds ago was now wide open.
He was wondering why his body was.infront of his and why is the guy he was desperately running away from was in the stance where as if he had slashed something.
'Ahh...' But that doesn't matter anymore.
For him, what he was seeing right now was such a masterpiece.
A burning forest, his veil and the storm. All of it.
'Beautiful...' He thought.
Just as he was enjoying the scenery, his gaze shifted to his opponent, who lookef backwards and then looked at him in the eye.
Yuri ran towards the falling head of Neev and then delivered a one last powerful slash.
But before his sword touches Neev, the only thing in his name is one name.
'Lady...'
SLASH!
'Luna...'
Thud.
Yuri cut off half of Neev's face.
Just to make sure in case that he need to cut off his brain order to stop him from doing anything anymore.
Truly a cruel man.
"Kurgh..." Just after that, Yuri falls to his knee, but then managed to assist hinself using his sword.
His body is extremely dehydrated for being exposed in immense heat even though it is only for a couple of minutes.
Meanwhile, the scorching hot veil slowly lose it's color and then turn to a smoke, dissapearing as the user died.
It makes Yuri lower his guard and proceed to laid on the ground on his back.
All of the exhaustion go down at him all at once, making his head dizzy and his eyes slowly closing.
But, sleeping in this kind of place would put him in danger because of the continous heavy rainfall.
He might drown in his sleep or if not get drowned, he might get eaten by some weird looking lions.
'Dying because i got eaten by some weird ass animals...'
He pinched himself, stand up, and then go to a nearby cave that he coincidentally found.

About 1 and a half hours ago...
RUMBLE!
BOOM!
Back at the academy, all of the students were hurriedly running towards their dorms, covering their heads using their books.
"The other remaining classes are cancelled, you guys can go to your dorms now. No going out of the academy or doing other unnecesary things that will put your lives in danger. Go STRAIGHT to your dorms!" Is what the orifessor says before they all go out of their classrooms.
"I was excited to go to some nearby clothing shop to go on a shopping..."
"Sigh... let's just go tomorrow."
"Yahooo! What a lucky day with a bad weather!"
"Hey, did you know that bad weathers are actually good weathers?"
Along with the studenta going to their dorms, there is Leonn, going out in the heavy rain and ran quickly towards the parts where there are a lot of tree, far from the other dorms
That is where a single building dorm was located.
There are only few professors and students who knew about the lonely building.
"He's still not back?" He asked himself while standing on a tree branch.
Not.being abke to find the guy he was looking for, he was about to go back but then he heard a voice near his ear.
"Hi~~" He heard the voice of a gentle women, then he suddenly leap to the ground.
'Since when?!' Shock, he asked himself 'I didn't even felt her presence...'
"Good day, President Winterbourne." He greeted the one who gave him an unexpected greetings.
"Good day, Leonn~~" The president cheerfully said.
"May I help you with something?"
"Oh~~ What a helpful child you are~~" "I wanted to accept the offer but i really can't rught now so~~" she added.
"Oh. Then if yiu may just excuse me." He was ready to go but then, the president continued to speak.
"But may i perhaps ask a question?~~"
"If i can answer it, i will give you the answer you are expecting. But if i can't please pardon me for not being able to answer." He politely says.
"Oh~~ Thanks~~" "It's just, when professor Elvira was teavhing you guys about your Elemental Aptitude..." She started.
"Is there someone that especially caught your attention?"
