Claire

is a Top-Grade student from Rosewood Academy and one of Blade's very first friends. She is also really close friends with Jessica.

Appearance
Claire is a teenager of average height with fair skin and delicate facial features. She has dark eyes and long, black hair that reach to her lower back with a hime-style haircut over her forehead and two extra long strands, one on each side of her head.

She has a lean frame with a larger-than-average bust. Claire is seen wearing her academy uniform at all times, which consists of an ivory shirt with a light pink coat draped over the shoulders, a short skirt with black knee stockings, and a pair of typical black shoes.

Personality
Claire appears to be a very humble and respectful person. She shows great respect towards her superiors, especially those of a higher social class. However, behind that respect may also lay feelings of fear and intimidation, as it was indicated while talking to Arnest. Claire considers herself a commoner, meaning that she frivolously embraces the fact that there are people above her, even if they deny such fact. It can also be deduced that she is an amiable person since she befriended Blade on his very first day in the academy; however, this could also be another misunderstanding by Blade since he considered Arnest a friend without the latter's approval.

Blade
Due to his kind and warm nature, Claire accepted and became Blade's first friend at the academy.

Arnest Flaming
Claire respects Arnest greatly, as she refers to the latter with the honorific "-sama" and opposes referring to her casually. Like all the other students, she feared her greatly and would avoid sharing the same table with her at the cafeteria. Arnest, on the other hand, sees Claire as a disgrace to the academy, as she sees herself as lower than others and uses her rank as an excuse for her weakness (in Arnest's own words).

With the arrival of Blade, the passing of time, and seeing Claire's noble heart, Arnest's opinion changes radically; becoming excellent friends and spend a lot of time together.

Jessica
Claire and Jessica are close friends.

Kassim
Kassin is in love with Claire, unfortunately for him, she only sees him as her irreplaceable childhood friend.

Plot
Sometime during Blade's stay at the Low-Grades, she befriended the boy and was one of the first students Blade befriends beside Jessica.

Transfer Student Arc
Claire is first seen walking up to Arnest and informing her about a change in the curriculum. Right before walking away, though, Arnest stops her and asks her to stop addressing her as "-sama", a request Claire refuses altogether, claiming that she's just a commoner, ultimately enraging Arnest. After receiving a scolding because she seemingly uses her background as an excuse to abstain from working hard, Claire is seen frightened, with her eyes flooded with tears.

Asmodeus Arc
During lunchtime, Claire is later seen searching for a table in the Academy's cafeteria with her friend, Jessica. Blade invites them to sit with him and Arnest, but due to what had transpired when she and Arnest met, Claire ignored his offer and swiftly left Blade's sight.

Power and Abilities
Claire started out as a low-ranking student within the academy, however, and thanks to her dedication, she managed to awaken her healing abilities, which allowed her to enter the advanced class with the rest of her friends.
