This is one of the worst isekai I've ever read. It's like the author had a story he wanted to tell but somehow managed to tell it in the worst way possible.

That's not a surprising assessment considering the author is Im Dal-Young.

Disregarding the elephant in the room (a full-grown man acting like a child) because it's a recurring problem in almost all Isekai, the story is still so shit. First of all, why didn't he choose the immortal mommy? Did this man forget why he started crying and whining in his previous life? Become immortal and then do whatever the fuck you want. But no, we choose to be a commoner. Okay then.
I don't understand how his powers work, and truth be told, I do not care much about it. MC better fuck the big tits elf otherwise this will be a drop from me. I do not give a single shit that the elf maid likes his father (copying Mushoku Tensei). At least it made sense for Mushoku because the MC was literally mentally ill and was a hikikomori with severe social issues. This dude was almost a normal man and he's acting like this. Stupid ass.
This is Im Dal-Young after all, so I'm not fully convinced but I better see some erotica real quick, or there will be problems.

Huh? What? What happened? 🤣 There's a lot to be said about this chapter but seriously, those parents, why would they let the maid do that to their own kid? They are the parents but the maid has the final say when it comes to their kid's life???

Tbh, I have read so much bad manga up through the years so I'm gonna continue reading this to see how bad it truly is. At best it will be a manga to kill time with.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a lim dal-young story without an older woman obsessing over the MC.
Highered caretakers usually do. They can overnight the parents completely but if you hire someone to take care of your kid you're normally going to air on their side of things. Ultimately all the parents could do is constantly undermine her making her being there pointless, fire her, or let her do her job.
The Elf was overly harsh and was clearly doing some things out of contempt no matter what the MC's delusions are. If she had shown even a small bit of compassion at any point before he had to save her I would probably agree with his delusion.

OMG. Is this another story where a previously Japanese MC is reincarnated in an European-esque world and for some strange reason still has a Japanese name that his European-esque parents (neither of which have a Japanese name) gave him indicating the author/artist couldn't figure out how to pick up a few naming books or even just use google and come up with a non-Japanese-esque name for their MC to do some basic worldbuilding?????? It's just as bad as when these characters are reincarnated into a European-esque world where magically "no one has black hair and black eyes [see dark hair and dark eyes]" but somehow, magically, MC despite being born in a family full of blondes, brunettes, or gingers, has black hair and black eyes or the author pulls something like this and makes the mom, usually, have black hair and black eyes. For some reason, it's never the dad. Dad's always the blondie, but MC always "takes after [his] mom." And once again it's a grown-minded man, yes reincarnated as a child but kept his adult mind who is somehow acting out like a child...throwing temper tantrums and running away, incapable of defending himself when challenged with....words...and accusations. How is it this man became so successful IRL?
And seriously, this dude chose commoner? I agree with @xXPenisXx, how is that supposed to be mediocre given they own a store and have a live in maid who also teaches him magic and combat. The only way the author gets away with this if sometime later in the story the author invokes the classic trope that the maid owed them her life and was doing all this for free.
I do believe she believed she was both doing it for the boy's own good as I said above, his parents seemed to be overly soft and failing to properly keep him prepared, educated, and focused AND I believe she was being contemptous, but not for the reasons MC though. I think it was because MC was acting like a slacker and his parents encouraged his slacker behavior whereas she probably, and seemingly, legitimately wanted him to learn and push himself. Although, yes, I think if she did have a crush on his dad there may have been a little resentment, but I think the final panel shows that it was a bit more than that. I'll at least give the author that much.

Hired caretakers usually only have the authority over the child that the parents give them. That's why they're 'hired caretakers." They can't abruptly or arbitrarily override the parents' authority over their child beyond what the parents allow. So, I disagree with you @lordb1. As a father, I would not allow a hired caretaker to tell me what to ultimately do with my child. What I saw in that scene with the cake was likely the maid dealing with two overly soft parents and the author wanting to create a dislike for the maid with the readers by showing her to be overbearing. I do agree with this to some degree:

Then as a parent, you would have undermined her by saying what she is doing is wrong or you would have fired her. Nothing I said was wrong.
She should have found a less abusive way to teach him then and I stand by my statement on her actions.

Your exact words in response to vhad23 asking why the hired help has the final say over the child's discipline (emphasis mine): "Highered caretakers usually do. They can overnight the parents completely..." My response was, in so many words, that hired help does not usually have the final say over the child's discipline in this situation unless the parents allow it. Yes, you went on to say that parents could undermine the hired help, but the beginning part of your statement seems to imply that you think all hired help in these situations have the final say with the upbringing of children they are hired to help with.
As far as her approach being abusive or not. Remember, she was entrusted with teaching him to fight and in some instances, you're going to have to show the child how to learn how to likely take a punch for lack of a better way of putting it. I mean, imagine trying to teach a kid how to fight IRL and you can't knock them down or give them a controlled attack or something without it being called abuse? The most you saw in this chapter was her telling him to try to hit her in a mock fight and hitting him on the head with a wooden sword as a disciplinary action because of MC's behavior and attitude. I'm not really sure where you saw her being abusive as after considering this chapter more, most of her actions were displayed through the interpretation of MC. <spoiler> Which he later finds out was way, way wrong about and despite being a grown man in a young child's body, was beyond childish.</spoiler> At best you could argue from only seeing it from his perspective and in that sense, that she was overly strict and lacking in displaying compassion. Which, as I said based on the information ONLY from this chapter and through MC's perspective could come off as both her trying to help in her own way and being a little contemptuous.

Gap moe overprotective immortal elf mom would have been fun.
Im Dal-Young and manwha in general have no concept of middle class. Every story is either about the ultra rich or ultra poor and their attempts at humility are hilarious. The backstory actually sounds like an idolized autobiography. Also the life expectancy for polycythemia vera with treatment is actually very good now, and it's not intrusive like chemotherapy. Technically it's cancer, functionally it's not much different then having sickle cell and the main issues are joint pain, fatigue, kidney damage, and susceptibility to some infections due to splenic dysfunction. Arguably diabetes is more of a death sentence. Isekai series are either about redoing life or just empty wish fulfillment, but the ones that elevate the genre have the protagonist learning that they could have overcome everything in their past if they didn't give up.
