Reincarnated Without a Cheat, I Adopted the Former Hero as My Mom

Uriel, a reincarnator who retained the memories of his past life, found a woman on a rainy night at the orphanage.

"Can you be my mom?"

He initially thought he would be the one taking care of this clumsy "mom"—someone who didn't know how to cook, couldn't fetch water, and once blew a massive crater in the yard just trying to get rid of a bug. But in less than two years, Galatina's maternal skill tree was completely maxed out. From tucking him in at midnight and gently blowing on a spoonful of hot soup, to bending down to tie his shoelaces...

Without realizing it, his world-weary, thirty-year-old soul began to relax more and more each day under his mom's relentless doting.

It wasn't until later that he learned the truth. This woman, who had to learn basic household chores from scratch, was actually the strongest Hero of the previous generation!? Not only could she dismantle the Demon King with her bare hands, but she could also solo hell-level dungeons. Yet, the official history books recorded her fate simply as: *"Disguised Demon King, successfully subjugated."*

To protect his mom and keep her true identity under wraps, Uriel was forced to launch a chaotic, "hiding in plain sight" master plan. He desperately enrolled in academies, tried to keep a low profile, frantically wrote scripts to cover up their lies, and even ended up taking the role of a "Scribe."

But what he never expected was for absolutely everything to start spiraling wildly out of his control...
