I became famous as a painter, but I basically did anything people wanted me to.
I crafted tools and weapons...
I designed cities and made ships.
What I always thought of was "the creation of all things."
The artificial bird, the staff that displays the stars, the all-purpose combat universal gauntlet...
They were all products of that thought.
I sought perfect beauty.
For that, I needed to know many things. That's all.
Huh? Did I ever finish perfect beauty?
Of course I did, and fairly early on, too!
But that was just my personal opinion.
I worked day and night as a genius to gain affection for my work and reach greater heights.
I took students, traveled, and sometimes healed the hearts of men.
I'm a genius, but I'm not cold-hearted.
Because I knew completed beauty, you see.
One who does not love humanity cannot grow as a human.
It's very simple.
Though it did take me a while to find that out, you know?
Although I made my name as a painter, basically I can do anything.
I can make tools and weapons both.
I can design cities and build boats.
What I always thought of was "the creation of all things".
An artifical bird, a staff that symbolized the stars, an all-purpose combat universal gauntlet, these are all products of that thought.
I sought the perfect beauty.
All the knowledge I gathered was only for that purpose.
Eh? Have I completed the "perfect beauty"?
Of course. I even arrived at it earlier than I thought!
But that is just my personal opinion.
So that more people understand, so that I can achieve even greater developments, my genius cannot stop working day and night.
Taking disciples, travelling, and at times healing the hearts of the people.
Although I am a genius, I am not unfeeling.
I know of perfected beauty, you see.
Something that does not love humans cannot grow as a human.
It's something as simple as that.
Though it took me some time to realize that myself, you know?
