Pretty good underdog story with a childish tone. Interesting premise, with the MC being looked down on until it is revealed that he is secretly OP. The tone is a little too childish for my tastes and the mother con stuff is a bit offputting but this story has potential to be really interesting.

It might be best to wait for more chapters but I definitely recommend this for its genre. Specifically, the MC is treated unfairly and looked down upon but suddenly he gets a better family and is revealed that his oppressors were too s*upid to recognize his true power. Yet at the same time, it is not dark and depressing. It might be too soon to tell but I have some hopes.

Edit after reaching ch 20:

Spoiler

Nope. I'm out. An entire chapter's worth of world-building to explain why it is totally ok and even normal for MC to hook up with his own mom? No thanks. There still seems like there is some potential with the powers and I have to acknowledge that my dislike stems from personal taste so I won't lower my initial score, but I feel like you should leave fetish stuff for smut novels and keep it out of my mindless harem LNs. Still totally G rated for anybody concerned. No heavy petting or anything beyond essentially announcing a relationship between the two but I don't even like that much.
