"No wonder..."
Looking at the Grey Professor, Annan narrowed his eyes slightly: "I understand now."
Just like a person adept at handling wounds is not only a surgeon but also someone who often gets injured—This is why the Grey Professor could so skillfully separate the identities of "Wolf Professor" and "Bone Healer," to the extent that many did not even notice.
That's because he indeed has the relevant experience.
But it's not the experience of splitting off other entities... but rather that he himself is a separate ego, broken off from a being that often "splits its self"!
This was indeed a possibility Annan had not considered before.
However, it does make sense...
"Self-division" is a rather popular skill within the Idol Wizard school.
