Earnest Flaming is one of the main heroines in Classroom for Heroes. She is known as the “Empress” at Rosewood Academy and is both admired and feared by her classmates. Earnest comes from the respected Flaming family, which holds one of the four legendary swords passed down through generations. At first, she is very serious and strict, often acting as the straight man to her friends’ antics. But after Blade helps her, she starts to show a kinder side and slowly becomes more open with her classmates. She has some funny quirks, like getting obsessed with sweets, and even sometimes loses track of herself as a girl. Even though she faces a lot of pressure from her family and her magical sword, she proves to be a strong leader and a good friend.
Earnest Flaming has long, bright red hair that stands out.
She wears a pink battle outfit, black tights, and pink boots.
Her signature weapon is the flaming magic sword, Asmodeus.
Earnest is proud and strict, especially at the start.
She acts as the straight man, always pointing out her friends’ silliness.
Much of her seriousness comes from her family’s expectations and the heavy responsibility of being a top student.
After meeting Blade and overcoming her own struggles, she becomes kinder, more relaxed, and even playful.
She sometimes becomes obsessed with treats, which once caused her to gain weight.
Despite her quirks, she is brave, resourceful, and a natural leader.
Earnest Flaming is the daughter of the Flaming family, one of the Four Great Houses celebrated as “The Four Swords Dedicated to the Royal Family.”
She is at the top of the A-Class, which is the highest of the Academy’s ranking system.
Her red hair was originally black, but changed when she touched the magic sword, Asmodeus, at age six.
She became the incomplete owner of the sword and struggled for years with its power trying to take over her.
After Blade supports her, she finally conquers the sword’s will and becomes its true owner.
Her family status and her sword bring a lot of pressure, but they also give her a strong sense of responsibility.
Earnest is not an ordinary human, and her abilities grow more and more superhuman as the story goes on.
She can split into tiny versions of herself, and generally does things no normal person can do.
Magic Sword Asmodeus
The magic sword Asmodeus is a powerful, sentient weapon passed down in the Flaming family.
It is one of four similar swords, with another owned by Lunaria.
When Earnest first touched it as a child, she became its incomplete owner, leading to a long struggle for control.
With Blade watching, she finally wins over the sword and becomes its real master.
The sword sometimes gets caught up in her misadventures, like helping her diet or being lent to Blade during fights.
Even though the sword has no gender, its personality is kind of masculine, and it later “has a child” with Lunaria’s sword (which ends up with Clay).
Demon Form
Earnest has different “Demon Modes,” forms that unlock by releasing Asmodeus’s power:
- Demon Mode: Her body once perished, but she came back as flames with the sword’s power. This is her basic transformed form, with more versions showing up later.
- Demon Mode 2: A more evolved state after gaining experience, looking more human.
- Demon Mode 3: Unlocked during a match with Lunaria; they both reach this form and get into a big fight mid-battle.
- Demon Mode 4: Uses Eliza Maxwell’s fusion machine to merge with Lunaria. Both keep their personalities, leading to inner arguments.
- Demon Mode 5: A step beyond, evolving into a “God” mode after further fusing with Lunaria even without the machine.
Earnest is deeply grateful to Blade for helping her accept herself and beat her inner demons.
She slowly develops feelings for him.
She is also a supportive and trusted leader to her classmates, guiding everyone during crises.
The Asmodeus sword is her constant companion and sometimes a source of trouble.
Lunaria is both her rival and partner, especially when they fuse or fight.
Earnest’s Early Struggles

Her red hair and commanding presence make her stand out as the “Empress.”
She feels the pressure to always stay at the top because of her famous family and her role as A-Class leader.
The Magic Sword’s Burden
At age six, Earnest’s hair changed color after she touched Asmodeus out of curiosity.
From then on, she had to fight the sword’s urge to control her, which lasted for years.
This ordeal shapes her serious, high-strung personality.
Breaking Free with Blade
Blade supports Earnest when she faces the final test against the sword.
With his help, she overcomes Asmodeus’s will, becomes its true master, and starts to act less strict.
She begins to enjoy being friends with her classmates and even gets into funny misadventures, like getting chubby from eating too many snacks.

She shows great leadership and care for everyone.
Her relationship with Blade turns into a deep and mutual friendship.
