Does the childhood friend/fiance ever learn the truth about the main character? Like he is definitely the strongest in the class at this point but she still has no idea who he is.

From what I have seen in the novel so far:

Spoiler

No, the childhood friend/fiance doesn't know about this, but comes to suspect that the MC is hiding his true strength. She then tries to get closer to him to confirm her suspicions, but due to the MC not wanting to risk altering the events of the game's plot (the childhood friend/fiance is a mandatory member of the hero party in the game, and because of this the MC wants her to stay with them and also doesn't want to get involved with them in any way), he keep her at an arm's length and avoid interacting with her as much as possible, preferring the company of the friends he made during the story, much to her frustration.

Spoiler

I thought from other spoilers the fiance joins his harem with the other player girl and they date together so I figured she would at least know given she breaks away from the hero as a love interest.

No that is a fanfic. It goes against the author's clucking taste.

Spoiler

If it depends on the MC, this will never happen. He keeps tabs on the childhoold friend/fiance mainly to check the status and progress of the hero's party and because the Souta inside him compels him to protect her, but overral he prefers not to interact with her more than necessary because he doesn't want to risk that she, one of the main heroines of the game, leaves the hero's party and thus alters the events of the plot under any circumstances.

That said, the MC makes exceptions to certain heroines, such as Kuga Kotone (the U.S. spy) and Akira Tenma (the girl in armor), who the player needs to go out of their way to recruit in the game, agreeing to form the party with them as he believes that this will not affect the main plot.

does she care about him or not? she's so unclear about this even in her own private thoughts you'd assume it'd be atleast addressed a little but no not yet

She does care about him, the problem is that the MC treats her like her game counterpart, who abandoned him after she got strong.
So lately she invites him to dive in the dungeon together and spar together in order to find out how strong he really is, but MC avoids her, and lately he managed to get the captain of the first swordsmen club to train his classmates so he's free while the hero's party is currently undergoing training MC expects that they will be around LV 13 by the end of summer.

In terms of romance, she can't be conquered another player tried to woo her but failed because MC doesn't trigger any of her flags and is not sexually harassing her and she turned out to be some sort of "pain in the ass" she's determined to find out why Souta changed and what's going on with him.

Damn! Thanks! Gonna reD that LN 3.

You should read since volume 1 because manga and the novel are different, there are a lot of things that the manga skipped.

When in battle mode he steams like a train and becomes a hunky. In fact he looks like his wage slave self.

In other words...
Butao will partner with anyone except his bitxh.

Good lord that sounds so needlessly frustrating
