## Series
- title: Doctor Elise

## Chapter
- number: 136
- release_date: 2025-05-14

### Summary
The narrative shifts from physical to ideological conflict as Elise confronts her enemies, not with threats, but with a powerful moral argument. The chapter's central theme, "Having a reason doesn't justify a wrongdoing," is championed by both Elise and, to the overwhelming approval of readers, the antagonist's daughter, Yulian. This development has dramatically shifted reader sentiment from the previous chapter's backlash; frustration with Elise has largely been replaced by admiration for her and Yulian's shared rationality and courage. Yulian is particularly lauded for confronting her father, Count Childe, whose motives for causing the deaths of Linden's mother and sister—stemming from his own sister's unrequited love—are dismissed by the audience as pathetic and inexcusable. While many readers are moved by Elise's "Talk-no-Jutsu" and celebrate the intelligence of the female characters, a significant minority expresses disappointment. These critics find the resolution of a deep-seated, violent conflict through a single conversation to be anticlimactic and a sign of declining plot quality, arguing that Elise remains a passive character whose problems are solved too conveniently. Speculation now centers on whether Count Childe will repent, with some readers predicting he will take his own life.
