Chapter 125: The Awakening of the Eternal Laws
š Act I: A Whisper from the Tomes
Ne Job was patrolling the Library when Twinkle buzzed nervously.
The shelves trembled, and tomes glowed faintly, whispering words of law and truth.
Ao Bing frowned. "That's not ordinary reading."
Taiyi Zhenren muttered, "Unprofessional."
Lord Xian appeared, grave.
> "Interns, the Eternal Laws are awakening. They will rise as allies. But beware ā the Mask of Misrule seeks to corrupt them."

š§ Act II: The Villains' Plot
The Bureau of Misrule had devised their most insidious scheme yet.
Their plan: twist the Eternal Laws into living shadows, turning justice into chaos.
- Joy's law accused of cruelty.
- Patience's law accused of stagnation.
- Courage's law accused of recklessness.
Ao Bing clenched his fists. "We'll protect them!"
Taiyi Zhenren footnoted the evidence.
Ne Job whispered, "We must awaken them kindly."
Twinkle pulsed softly.

š Act III: The Awakening
The interns approached the glowing tomes.
One by one, they rose from the shelves, transforming into figures of light.
- Joy appeared as a radiant child, laughing kindly.
- Patience appeared as a calm elder, smiling softly.
- Courage appeared as a bold knight, standing firm.
Ao Bing stumbled in awe.
Taiyi Zhenren trembled as his notes glowed.
Glimmer giggled joyfully.
Ne Job whispered, "The Laws are alive."
Twinkle hummed faintly.
The Library glowed.

š§µ Act IV: The Confrontation
The Mask of Misrule appeared among the awakened Laws.
His cracked mask shimmered with cruel laughter.
He hissed:
> "The Eternal Laws are mine. I will twist them into chaos."
Ao Bing hurled thunderfruit sparks.
Taiyi Zhenren annotated his tricks.
Glimmer giggled, distracting him.
Ne Job unrolled Miracle #540-D ā the Duel in the Library.
The scroll pulsed.
Truth resonated.
The Laws glowed brightly.
Their corruption cracked.
Their light returned.
The Mask faltered.
His disguise cracked further.

The Eternal Laws stood beside the interns.
Joy laughed kindly.
Patience smiled softly.
Courage stood firm.
Ao Bing laughed with Joy.
Taiyi Zhenren footnoted Patience.
Glimmer hugged Courage.
Ne Job whispered, "Laws are not chaos. They are harmony."
Twinkle hummed brightly.
The Library glowed.
The Laws pulsed with new life.
The Mask fled into the shadows.
His voice echoed:
> "You may win today. But masks always return."
Lord Xian's voice echoed faintly:
> "Intern Ne Job, you have defended the Library with the Eternal Laws. Well done."
