Cheshire actually has a twin brother called Keith. Both of them were slaves, but were picked up by the mage tower people because both had excellent magic power capabilities. mage tower leader is evil who experimented on both the twinswhich causes the transfer of Keith's soul into Cheshire body. Cheshire hates the tower mage leader and wants to kill him but he has a slave pattern on him so he can't kill him).
A body with two souls can't be sustained for a long time of course so the option was to kill one soul but Cheshire refused it. He chose the path of black magic so that he could get his revenge and cheshire wanted to sacrifice himself so that keith can gain control of his body. in the morning it's cheshire and aftr midnight its keith. But keith is 12 years old because that's when he was sacrificed. lotsa angst but yeah.
Thanks for this spoiler…it really makes me sad for Cheshire and Keith…the puzzle about why he seemed so different from how the FL described him makes sense but I wish there was something that could help them and get their revenge…and start a fan club dedicated to him…I really the archduke but I fell for these twins
