Doctor Elise: The Royal Lady with the Lamp

In her past life, Elise was called the Villainous Empress. Now she's genius surgeon Takamoto Aoi, saving as many as she can in an attempt to atone. She heads to Germany to perform surgery, but the plane begins to crash! Will this be the end for her?

In order to prevent tragedy from befalling those around her, Elise makes a difficult decision. She summons her courage and tells Emperor Minchester, but he doesn't immediately accept her resolve. Instead, he offers her a wager with her future on the line.

Elise keeps her identity a secret as she begins her work as an apprentice at Teresa Hospital. She makes use of the knowledge she gained as Takamoto Aoi to help her patients. Some doubt her abilities, but she soon proves herself in dramatic fashion!

Elise begins to distinguish herself through her medical knowledge. Then, a patient with a severe, untreatable injury is brought to Teresa Hospital. The enigmatic, handsome young man accompanying the patient shows an unusual interest in Elise.

Elise has succeeded in a complicated surgery thanks to her formidable medical skills. Impressed by her genius, the other doctors discuss her eligibility for the physician's exam. Later, Elise finds Lord Ron at the hospital and wonders why he's there.

Elise runs into Juliane, her former rival in love, at Minchester's birthday celebration. Recalling her previous cruel treatment of Juliane, Elise resolves to treat her with kindness. Just as Elise begins to relax, Minchester makes a shocking announcement.
