Headmaster Jean, the esteemed Headmaster of the Vermont Academy, held a significant role in this year's competition.
His presence at the Roaring Summit extended beyond being a mere chaperone for the students participating in the Twelve Academies Competition. He had a deeper purpose - to ensure Vale's safety even after he conquered the Ascension Tower, or at least that was his fervent hope.
Having consulted with the Dark Seers within their Faction, Jean had received confirmation that their Academy would achieve something remarkable in this highly anticipated competition.
He firmly believed that Vale possessed the potential to ascend to the highest floor of the Tower and claim the coveted item waiting there. He couldn't think of anything else since there wasn't anything special in this place aside from the Tower.
Anyway, Jean understood that once Vale cleared the Tower, he could not protect the special item he would receive.
