The Supreme God

Austin was in no hurry. He ambled along to cherish the verdant scenery around him.

As he passed by a thick emerald-hued bush, a figure in pink flashed past him to swiftly dive and take cover behind the dense foliage.

Behind him, Raymond was close on the heels of Austin as he scrambled to ambush Austin with his gang. About half an hour later, Raymond was watching from afar to see Austin still unhurried and leisurely strolling about. With a diabolical plan cooking in his mind, Raymond flashed a wicked smile.

"Hurry up. Walk faster and go ahead so that you can take that guy by surprise," Raymond ordered bossily. As soon as he waved his hand, all his men obediently got into two groups and parted their ways to follow two different paths into the forest.

Dozens of men sneaked through the closely packed trees, scurrying at a fast pace, in order to reach the ghat in time. Some moments later, they had finally caught up with Austin and then, overtook him.

Austin heard the leaves rustle around him. His lips curled into a wry smile as he murmured to himself, "Finally! You caught up with me. It's good that I didn't have to waste much time in waiting for you."

This was the part of the ghat where the trees became sparse and the overarching sky was all too visible. On that naked patch, Austin paused as if to rest for a while.

Raymond's men by then were walking some distance ahead of Austin. They all had a plan, which they were only too eager to put in motion. They started to position themselves strategically at a treacherous ghat lying in wait for Austin.

As minutes ticked by and it clocked to about half an hour, they began to fidget, wondering why they hadn't seen Austin in a long period of time.

'Did this guy spot something out of turn and go back?' Raymond spoke sotto voce. An idea struck him and so he promptly barked an instruction, "one of you go and take a look at what on earth is that guy up to."

Again, minutes passed by and all waited mouse-like for the dispatched man to get back. On his return, he reported, "Sir, he was resting on an exposed stretch of the forest. He was simply lying there and staring at the sky."

"Why wait here? Go. Let's walk back then!"

Raymond ordered again. He was unwilling to waste any more time in waiting, as he was getting impatient to see Austin cruelly tortured.

At his end, Austin retrieved a small cloth bag from his space ring and then, further pulled out an array flag from the bag.
