Spoiler for Future:
"Future" divided into four chapters.
1. Misaki Municipal High School
The story takes place around two months after the creation of Xanadu, involving students in Misaki Municipal High School's student council including Ike, Harumi, Kimiko and Yukari.
Since that time, people in the Misaki city starts rumoring about seeing and hearing something unexplainable ( the last battle which happened from the sudden removal of the Seal during Yuji's revelation of his true plan after Xanadu is created). But the incident never create chaos among the people because Yuji also used Kazumi's memory of Misaki city to fix all the distortion since Friagne's activity in the city.
2. Sakai Residence
The chapter is about the couples of Sakai house taking care of the newborn with Ogata coming to help them. Sakai Kantarou's research on the news about people seeing and hearing unexplainable things during the final battle. Chigusa reminisces about Wilhelmina Carmel whom Margery Daw told that she "left to somewhere far away and wouldn't come back to the city but she's living happily now".
3. Misaki City Station
Tanaka and Kazumi goes to welcome the temporary return of Satou and Margery at the station. Satou enrolls in Tokyo's high school while also working at the Outlaw. Margery comments that Kazumi looks more beautiful when she have long hair (shoulder length) now. Satou and Margery tell them the situation of the Flame Hazes and Outlaws; the Flame Hazes are going to come to Misaki city to research about the completely fixed city and Hirai Yukari who eventually returned from the "death". but to prevent to sudden entrance of them, Flieder and Holmes who take care of Japan Outlaw, and Dong Ming the Guilunhui (presumed to become the Elder) are trying to stop that commotion. Sophie goes back to her retirement. Dan Rogers, Hildegard, Francois and Mikalojus are still active at the Outlaw. Marcosias reveals to them that the contracted Crimson Lords who stayed behind in this world are blocked from returning to Crimson Realm since Xanadu is created between two worlds; it cuts the link between their will and their home which is like a guide sign for them to go back to their world, resulting them becoming like Asiz who once cut his own bond with Crimson Realm to re-materialize without losing his beloved contractor's body. While the guide post to Earth is changed to Xanadu, the guide post to Crimson Realm from Earth is unsure where they will be leading to or to be strayed in the Abyss forever. Margery tells that with the hint of Asiz and the secret scroll of "Psalm of Grand Order" left by Johann, they may uncover the truth which was discovered by the once-returned God of Creation.
4. Feast of Cherry Blossom Flower
At the Misaki mountain where Cherry Blossom blooms, Sakai Kantarou, Chigusa, the newborn and others are enjoying the scenery. Chigusa and Kantarou reveals to them the reason behind the name of the newborn, Miyu. They heard the sound of someone at the night of the last battle, the sound from somewhere far away (はるか which also can be written as 悠). When the night comes, Margery presents the ring which she said to be "St. Edward's ring"(the legend of St. Edward's ring can be searched in google) which is actually the part of ten rings Chorde. She said that if they hold them tightly and pray, it may reach to the other rings. The ring then passed to Ogata and Tanaka, then Margery and Satou, then Ike, then Yukari, then Kazumi. The newborn then cry out like wanting the ring too. The ring then finally passed to the Sakai couple and infant. The chapter ends saying that their prayer and blessing becomes wind that could even flow between worlds.
Spoiler for Hope:
"Hope" divided into three chapters.
1. "Manipulator of Objects" Wilhelmina Carmel
The chapter starts a year later, after the Xanadu is created. On Tendokyu, Wilhelmina and Rebecca are taking care of the child Justus whom starts to be able to weave an Unrestricted Spell before he could master walking. They are then visited by Shana who, staying by Yuji's side on his eternal quest for teaching the way for both race to coexist, while he is forbidden to come to Outlaw and Tendokyu (rooting from Wilhelmina's grudge on him for attacking Justus during the last battle). Yuji becomes known with the sarcastic title received from other people and Denizens, the "World-wandering Ascetic"(廻世の行者 Junkai no Gyousha).They talks about how the Outlaw is reorganized without Sophie, Samuel and others here; Sale, Chiara and the Four Gods are taking care of this problem with the help of former Flame Haze's contracted Crimson Lords: Behemoth, Halphas and Zirnitra who come directly to Xanadu (since the world is filled with unlimited Power of Existence). Shana becomes like a sister for Justus.
2. "World-wandering Ascetic" Sakai Yuji
Somewhere in Japan, Yuji is escorted by Pirsoyn to the restaurant. He meets Ribesal in his human shape which resembling big robust man with beads around his neck. He talks to Yuji about his quest and approach him to side with Bal Masque again. Yuji declines this and is then scolded by Ribesal for involving Bal Masque's members in his former battle with the newly created organization called "Maccabean Brothers" (マカベア兄弟 makabea kyoudai); the organization bends the oracle of Shaher falsely preach Denizens to massacre people as they pleased. Yuji apologizes Ribesal and Bal Masque for involing their comrades and ask if Bel Peol is fine. After finishing their food, Ribesal tells him to take a good care of the princess (Shana) which Yuji reacted with sudden surprise. He then ask the Crimson Lord how to become strong quicker.
3. "Flame-Haired Burning-Eyed Hunter" Shana
The chapter involves the battle between the "Maccabean Brothers" 's Princes (seems to be the title for leaders)and Shana/Yuji. They disguises and infiltrate into the killing area organized by the two Princes, "Subterranean's Thrusting Edge" Dáin (“潜逵の衝鋒” ダーイン "Senki no Shouhou" Daain) and "Smashing Hammer of Chaos" Charun (“紊鎚毀” カルン "Bintsuiki" karun). Shana and Yuji manage to finish the two off and instruct the other members to kill no more. Later, Shana and Alastor compliments Yuji for his improvement. When they are going to leave the area, the sound or melody of something is heard coming with the wind. They then depart, holding hands.

Wow, thank you very much for the summary.
Spoiler for About Future and Hope:
I guess this was kinda... underwhelming?
I don't know, maybe I was expecting some more insight on Shana and Yuuji's future, but we got a little "slice of life", so to say, instead, which was also insightful, to say the least. I am just so glad they are doing well~
Seems like a bunch of problems have arised though, with an organization such as this, sounds like a take on certain ways religions work or used to work in our world.
Uhh, and Yuuji being (temporarily?) banned from Tendou-kyu is kinda sad, haha. When did he attack Justus anyway? I read the chapter but the last instance I can remember was him firing after the (fake) van that took Pheles, Johann and Yoshida away.
And another question, the leaders of that organization are called "Prince"? As in, the son of a king? Or how is it written in Japanese?
Also, complete translation where?
