From Thug To Pornstar: I Reincarnated As Jonny Sins, So What!

Alex's mind just floated somewhere, grazing on thoughts that were as ethereal as anything could ever be amidst a sea of nothingness outside him.

Really? A banana peel? He read stories of heroic deaths, sacrifices by people to save others-things that rent hearts-where tripping up over one on the floor at his residence, while tending to some business, reached ridiculous levels.

Am I. dead? The question was caught in his head, some obtuse echo against the endless blackness which enclosed him. He had no body, no feel of movement. It was like floating in a dream, save too vivid to be more than reality. He felt a clench of fear as, attempting to recall, events after falling took hold of pain and then panic and finally. nothing.

He peered into the darkness for anything-light, sound, even a hand-to pull him out of this nightmare.

Instead, a faint glow appeared in the distance. It started as a pinprick of light but grew brighter, took shape, and drew closer. His heartbeat-or what felt like a heartbeat-quickened.

"Is this heaven? Or. is this hell?" His voice was tentative, weak, and seemed to echo without walls to contain it.

Suddenly, the glow coalesced into a screen. It floated before him, bright and smooth, like some kind of tablet from the future, hovering in mid-air. On it, in a flashing, playful pink font, it said:

[Welcome to Lustina's System!]

[Version 1.69 Activated]

[Initializing.]

Alex blinked. "Lustina's System?" He was not quite sure whether he should laugh or cry. His mind, still reeling from his silly death, clung onto those words in curiosity and dread.

The smoothest voice, oozing seductive charm, echoed through the void. "Oh my, aren't you just the most unfortunate little mortal." It giggled low-a sound that made him feel both charmed and belittled. "You really outdid yourself this time, didn't you? Death by banana peel. That is a first, even for me."

"Wh-who am I?" The voice of Alex shook. "And what is this? A sort of afterlife?

The voice purred. "I am Lustina, your personal system AI. Think of me as your guide. your partner. your everything." She sounded playful now. "As for where you are, well. that would depend. How do you feel about a second chance?"

"A second chance?" His mind was racing. "You mean I'm not. completely dead?"

"Technically," Lustina said, "you're dead where you came from. But here? Oh, sweet Alex, here you have potential. Here, you've been given the opportunity of a lifetime. A brand-new world. A fresh start. And, oh, the quests I have for you." She trailed off, her words husky with temptation.

Alex frowned. "Quests? What kind of world is this?

Before him, the screen flickered and flared to life in shimmering colours, painting visions of a world teeming with life: a very weird combination of modern cities and ancient ruins teeming with human beings who had an aura of charisma and confidence in them.

People with professions unlike anything back on Earth: doctors with glowing hands that healed with a touch, soldiers who could crush mountains with a flex, and pornstars whose very presence seemed to bend the laws of attraction.

"This." Lustina's voice softened, taking on an almost reverent note, "is the Realm of Eros. A world where heroes rise not just through strength or wisdom, but through charisma, prowess, and. other talents. Every profession here is related to. well, let's just say, unique skill sets."

"Wait a minute." Alex had been feeling his gut grow increasingly queasy. "Are you telling me I've been reincarnated into some sort of. adult-themed fantasy world?"

Lustina giggled. "Exactly! You catch on fast. But it is not just about the pleasure, my dear; it's about passion and skill, saving the world in ways you never imagined. Oh, and you have been graced with the form of one of the greatest heroes of them all."

Alex's confusion mounted. "What do you mean? What form?

The screen flickered again, showing a full-length mirror image of himself. At least, it should have been him. What stared back was a tall, broad-shouldered man with chiseled abs, a jawline sharp enough to cut glass, and a confident smirk that seemed to ooze charm. His bald head shone under a spotlight that seemed to appear from nowhere.

"Is that.?" Alex's eyes went wide. "No. No way. That's. that's Jonny Sins!"

"Correct!" Lustina beamed. "You've reincarnated as Jonny Sins, the Legendary Hero of Many Professions. Doctor, soldier, astronaut, teacher—he's done it all in your previous workd. And now, it's your turn to carry on his legacy."

Alex's head spun. "Jonny Sins? But why? Why him?"

"Because, sweetheart," Lustina whispered, her voice an enticing caress, "the world of Eros needs a hero who can master every trade, every talent, every. whim. You are to become the Master of All Trades. First, though, you'll need to train and complete quests and, of course." Her tone turned teasing ".meet a few of the key qualifications."

He massaged his temples, overwhelmed by his mind. "This has got to be a dream-a weird, messed-up, pizza-fueled fever dream."

"Call it what you will," Lustina purred, "but you'd better get used to it. The world is waiting, and your first quest is ready."

A new screen came up:

[Quest 1: The Audition]

Willing to make your entrance as Hero of Many Professions, charming and adaptable right from the first role?

Reward: 100 Charisma Points, and one special skill is unlocked!

.

Alex groaned. "What's the role?"

Lustina smirked. "Oh, you'll love it. but the details will have to wait. So welcome your new life, Alex - Jonny Sins. Let's make this legend-
