Chapitre 198: Invisible Mark
[insert text: If there could have been a day like this... // ...Even now, I still think about it sometimes...]

2
Mokona: ...So you haven't been able to see your father or mother ever since you spoke to Yuuko?

3
Syaoran: ...That's right. / After my wounds had been healed at her shop, // I went back to Clow Country immediately.
Kurogane: Are you telling us all of this now... // ...because we'll need to know in the battle up ahead?

4
Syaoran: That's one reason.
Fai: And the other?
Syaoran: I know what both of you have been through. // Through that vision we were shown...

5
Syaoran: And... // ...through the eyes of my other self.
Kurogane: ...It's not like you saw those things because you wanted to.
Syaoran: Still, I thought that I should tell you. // Since we've journeyed this far together, it's only right.

6
Syaoran: No matter what... / ...you may think, or choose to do, once I have told you.
Mokona: Syaoran...?
Kurogane: Carry on.

Sakura: Syaoran?!

Sakura: I thought you went back to Japan...!
Syaoran: ...The purification?
Sakura: Oh - that finished seven days ago. // So it's okay if we touch one another now...

Sakura: Syaoran?!!!

13
[TN: So. Goddamn. Cute. *unleashes epic jealousy in mini-Syaoran's direction*]
Sakura: On that last day... / I lost consciousness in the middle of the purification ceremony... // And then, when I woke up again, you weren't there... / I didn't even get to say goodbye properly... So I just...

14
Sakura: I thought maybe if I waited there at the purification pool, I could see you again...
Syaoran: ...Thank you. // For waiting for me.

15
Sakura: Mother! // Syaoran's come back again!
Nadeshiko: You certainly look very happy. / Sakura-hime. // ...... // Sakura-hime. / You should go and tell your father that we have a guest, as well.
Sakura: Okay!

16
Nadeshiko: Meanwhile, I'd like to have a word with you. / All right?
Syaoran: ...Yes.
Sakura: See you later, Syaoran!
Syaoran: ...Yeah.

17
Syaoran: That day at the purification, Sakura...
Nadeshiko: She was inscribed... with that seal. // Right now, the only person in this country able to see that seal is myself. // Even Sakura herself cannot see it.
Syaoran: But I was able to see it. // Just now...

18
Nadeshiko: I daresay that is because he wants you to see it. / That seal...
Syaoran: That man... who exactly is he?
Nadeshiko: Even I do not know that.

19
Nadeshiko: However, after you returned to your own world, I dreamed of him. // That he has a dream he wishes to fulfil.
Flashback!FeiWong: But will your wish and my own lead to the same thing?

20
Syaoran: I will search this world for a way to remove that seal from her. / I will find it, before those feathers envelop her completely. // I will not allow Sakura to die just so that that man can grant his wish.
