Skyler: Where the hell am I? My butt hurts!
Suddenly... I found myself in the middle of a forest path all by myself.

Skyler: "Yeah! Boom! Take that! One down, two to go. These guys don't even know what cooperation means!"
I was just playing my game Call Of Duty: Mobile at Rank Mode when Natsuki Subaru suddenly mentioned me in one of the Role-playing Group Chats in messenger I was in, causing an annoying chathead to pop up in the screen uninvited. I was so shocked and accidentally pressed it when I was trying to pull the trigger and kill the last enemy before finally winning. But something more unprecedented happened-
𝙎𝙨𝙨𝙨𝙨𝙨𝙩...
My phone suddenly started hissing so madly. The moment I pressed the chathead it's screen glowed so brightly that I thought my phone must've broken down from my improper use.
Skyler: "No No No No! I'm so dead!"
But instead of exploding, my phone's brightness continued shooting through the roof.
Skyler: "Wh-What's happening?"
A moment later, I found myself somewhere else, somewhere that isn't my room and presumably not even my world. I saw two moons in the distance, in broad daylight. The air was so fresh it's as if technology wasn't here in the first place.

Tɪᴍᴇ: 𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵
My mind was muddled and I was nervous. I turned my head and looked around to survey my surroundings. There was nothing but trees and the natural elements of nature. I found out that was in the middle of a dirt road. When I looked downwards, I caught a glimpse of my own hands. I looked at it and it didn't seem like the one from a few seconds ago, and not only that, I was wearing white sleeves from a white suit which went down to my ankles. My outfit had reddish scuffs and edgings. So my face, did it change at all? It didn't seem like I was in my body. It was as if I wasn't myself, this body feels a little bit stronger and my veins and insides feels like there wasn't just blood flowing through it.
After analyzing myself and my surroundings I sat down on the edge of the dirt road as if to wait for anyone to run over me.
Skyler: "Now then, where am I exactly? This doesn't seem like home to me."
Then a realization came to me. Why didn't I think of it? I was just in my room playing videogames, then something weird happens which led me to this unknown place and even in an unknown body.
Skyler: "This situation reminds me of something, people my age usually talked about this, usually manga and anime and it's considered to be fun and any weeb's dream... Isn't this what they call..."
Skyler: "ISEKAI!!"
I stood up and bellowed at the top of my lungs that maybe even the whole forest would have heard me, but I couldn't help it, one of my most wanted dreams came true.
Skyler: "S-So! This means I have something that's called a status, right?"
And yes, yes I did. The moment I said Status, a bluish-screen the size of a chopping board appeared in front of me. It had letters and numbers written on it.
Skyler: "This is my soul status that Azathoth gave me. Skyler Wilson, huh? And theres Photo Magic!"
This was what was written in the status screen-

Skyler: "These are all the skills he gave me to my Character... So I got isekai-ed as my roleplay character along with my super op skills?! Thank you whoever sent me here!
I screamed again out of happiness and even bowed down to nothing, but it wasn't completely nothing when I suddenly heard a voice out of nowhere. I think it was a voice, but there really wasn't a voice, it was as if someone else's thoughts were entering my mind.
"Yo. And you're welcome"
Skyler: "Yo."
I looked so stupid, I froze in my spot and moved my eyes everywhere to find who was talking. Who is this anyway?
Azathoth: "Welcome to my world. One of the worlds I created, Skyler. I am Azathoth. Though you usually referred to me as Hiiro or Granter, right?"
Skyler: "Yup."
Azathoth: "Well you see, I transferred you to this world I have created. From the very beginning of our role-playing, I have always been Azathoth, the one known as the strongest fictional character. Yes, I exist. I saw you all as my friends you see, and you wanted to be sent to another world like everyone else in our Isekai Groups, which I acknowledge. So, I granted you all your wish, although I sent everyone of our little friends into this world in different places to avoid conflict."
Skyler: "Then... What about my grandmother back home?"
Azathoth: "Ah yes yes, how thoughtful, your grandmother. Worry not, she will be okay. Afterall, your alternate self is still there with her. After I sent everyone to this world, I made sure it wouldn't make a difference in your world's reality to not cause any mysterious disappearances so I made perfect copies of yourselves that didn't even know they were originally just copies."
Skyler: "I-I see, so she'll be alright without me then."
Azathoth: "Yes, so fret not and enjoy your stay in my world. Also, brace yourself for your first event. One hint of advice, hide in those bushes."
Skyler: "First event-?"
But I was interrupted by a blue 2D arrow that pointed to a patch of bushes so thick that you could even fit a car inside it and it won't be noticed. I quickly jumped inside and hid myself then caught a few sounds just a few meters away from me, it weren't a fantasy monster, they were humans. Some big, fat, half-naked guy with a robber mask and leather armor showed up just beside the bushes I was in. He started shuffling it as if he was trying to get in with difficulty. I panicked and tried to use a skill, come to think of it, did Azathoth even tell me how to use my skills?! Well, fuck it! Let's try saying the name!
Skyler: "P-Photo Magic: [𝘐𝘯𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦]."
My hands started to disappear along with my whole body, they were fading. It wasn't until 4 seconds after I completely disappeared from sight when the guy finally squeezed himself in the bushes just beside me. He was so close it's impossible for him not to see me if I wasn't invisible. If I make a move here or touch a branch, I thought to myself he might fling his gigantic porky fists at my face so I didn't move at all like a century old statue.
After probably 20 minutes of waiting that seemed like 8 hours to me of standing still and sitting beside this orc-like person. More rustling of leaves came from behind us, I looked behind and he did too.
"Oi, Pigboy. You did what we asked? Is the area clear?"
The person beside me spoke to reply to the manly voice that came from behind us, his appearance was so deceiving I thought he was some thug. But his voice, it was so soft and comfy that he obviously seems like a good guy.
Pigboy: "Y-Yes sir. I-It's all clear. And my name is Anthony, sir Vatendeth."
Vatendeth: "Yeah yeah all's good eh? Take position, our prey is arriving soon, rookie."
Anthony: "Y-Yes sir!"
More figures appeared, there were atleast two dozens of thuggish looking people holding maces, swords, rapiers, staves, bows and other weapons I don't know myself.
Vatendeth: "Round up everyone, we got fourty minutes until the cargo of that rich elf merchant with his family arrives. Seems like he even brought his family along, elves, what fine prey to get our hands on, eh?"
"Oooohh!"
"Money!"
"Elfu!"
The place erupted in cheers and malicious remarks, I was just beside this Anthony person and I can't do anything about it or I'll get spotted. So they're planning to attack elves, are they? Are these bandits? I need to devise a plan to intercept them without putting myself in danger. These guys look so rough they seem like they can kill me in one hit. I need to be careful and slowly make a strategy.
Fourty minutes have passed and the cargo they've been waiting for have arrived, barely within their reach. It was a wagon with two horses pulling it, the driver was looking so lucky-go-lucky he didn't even know an arrow came hurtling to his brain which caused him to fly off the other side of the road while spraying blood. I didn't bother to look and instead focused on the success of my rescue plan. His death will not be in vain.
I looked left and saw the group of bandits were now charging at the cargo's direction which was guarded by atleast only four adventurers. They were surely going to lose with those overwhelming numbers.
I sneakily crouched and took a peek at one of the strong looking guys in the bandit's group and used a skill without muttering it but by sheer willpower and saying it in my mind instead out of determination for secrecy.
Skyler: "Photo Magic: [𝘌𝘺𝘦 𝘚𝘩𝘰𝘵]!"
My left eye suddenly stung a bit but I didn't blink. Seconds later, a few small particles of blue and purple light were dancing madly in circles in front of me, the fat guy beside me didn't seem to notice. The light began to collide with each other one by one and slowly died out after forming a square, it revealed a paper image of what I saw after using the skill.
Skyler: "Now what?"
I said in my thoughts as if thinking someone would answer it. But Azathoth actually did which shook me so much I almost jumped off the bushes, thankfully the guy beside me didn't notice.
Azathoth: "Throw it."
Skyler: "What?"
Azathoth: "Throw the photo anywhere."
Skyler: "A-Alright."
I looked at the photo one last time and got out of the bushes while still invisible. Then threw it at a bandit holding a staff. At first he didn't notice the picture and got hit right in the eye by the picture's edge, making him cry out in agony which his comrades didn't pay attention to, and slowly as if slow motion, the picture landed on the ground. It expanded enough for a vent then from it's top, mana started gathering in the form of light and formed a human figure. Three seconds after the light completely dissipated, the person from the picture was there but it was ofcourse just a copy because the real one is just behind me busy ganging up on a cleric Adventurer that has had their arm cut off just now. Sorry Adventurer, I don't have any healing abilities.
As thought it were connected to me, the copy thrusted his sword at the person holding the staff in the face. It was a gruesome sight as the guy's eyeball came rolling on the ground with blood spraying from his eye sockets. The copy didn't speak and instead looked past me to it's fellow bandits, I noticed it had glowing blue irises in it's eyes which looked cool too. When I finally had a good glimpse of the battle, it lunged and blood was already scattered on the ground, it was sickening specially when the smell of blood finally reached my nostrils. The copy flung and swung it's sword skillfully and fought the enemies by itself, it seems to react just from a little thought of mine. It swiftly evaded an attack behind it because I thought of it to avoid, it was as if we had two pairs of eyes and one body. It killed majority of the bandits while I stand in the corner watching in a safe place and giving it orders. It was going so smoothly and I was winning, although everyone was already dead except two people, Vatendeth who was holding out and that timid fat-ass crying in the corner who doesn't seem to notice they lost.
*𝘽𝙤𝙣𝙠*
Skyler: "Shit..."
All of a sudden without warning, I felt something hard hit me from around my nape. I was falling down and saw a last glimpse of my summon's body converting to light and scattering to nothingness, then looked at my shadow as I fell down- wait... Shadow-? Crap, I'm not supposed to see my shadow when I'm invisible, right? My invisibility is not on? But I didn't even turn it off... How?
And so, I lost consciousness. It's so dark. I can't see anything. My eyes are closed shut and I can't hear anything either. But I can feel myself being carried by the back atleast.
Skyler: "Ouch!"
I felt myself hit the floor and it wasn't just any floor, it was a little spiky and absolutely not soft. Rocky and a little mossy is the best description.
Skyler: "What's happening?"
I said in the darkness, then seven seconds later, my hearing senses are finally back. The first thing I heard was a woman's voice.
Woman: "I caught him standing in the corner watching the battle with my [𝘈𝘯𝘵𝘪-𝘔𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘤 𝘍𝘪𝘦𝘭𝘥] skill while invisible, Garm. I'm sure he was controlling that maniac since I felt the same wavelength he had to that guy and he disappeared after I knocked his master out. The brat didn't notice I disabled his invisibility which gave me the upper hand, though I got to say, learning magic instead of potions that can make you invisible is a pretty good feat in itself."
Crap, so my invisibility was undone?! I didn't expect this turn of events! What is Azathoth doing? Will he save me?
Then a high distant voice that came from in front of me spoke.
Garm: "Well done, Riskarm. I will take it from here. Such a fine looking lad. Oh I just want to violate him!"
Eeek! Is this some kind of joke?! Please tell me this guy is not homo!
Then something so bizarre and otherworldly happened. I felt something sit on top of me and my clothes were torn off. The ground felt cold and I even heard some slurping sounds around me.
Garm: "Because of you we lost our fun, men, resources and elves! Luckily we managed to catch you just before a few adventurers came by... Now you have to pay with your body!"
"Oooooohhh!!"
"If theres a hole theres a way!"
Skyler: "Noooooooooooo!!!"
It was at that night I lost my virginity.
