Spoiler for summary:

Main baddie in this story is a Crimson Lord by the name Barometz (a reference to a sheep-plant) and his unnamed group that FH and others called them the Color Thieves.

As the name suggests, Barometz plants his spell in guise of plant seeds in various places which will grow into plants. These plants are indistinguishable from normal ones. When someone who possesses aggregated will came in contact with them would activate the spell which steal a portion of their prey's power/flame and sent it to Barometz himself. He can also share these power to buff his followers. In the end, the Color Thieves was destroyed by Yuji, his returned Tyrant, Dragon tail, and cannon Rinne (like what we saw in season 3 when Bal Masque attacked Tokyo Outlaw) and Shana who now can have Alastor manifested his body (or Quasi-Divine Body as described in the Dengeki Bunko trading card) knocked Barometz down with ease.

Brothers of the Maccabees also collapsed after the event of Amphitheater and from its ashes come the new group called the True Oracle, which now instead of a false oracle of Shaher, follows another god's... Alastor's words of punishing those who still kill humans in Xanadu. This was a strange turn of event which baffles both FH and Denizens alike.

So Barometz wasn't killed as expected. His followers were offered to surrender but no one did, so Barometz was the sole survivor.

It is revealed that the True Oracle was led by none other than Yuji himself. However, their functionalty wasn't as great as Bal Masque and would need more time to train them.

Also, it was mentioned that Chorde (the rings that were kept by Shana and Margery) was inscribed with multiple communication spells. They hope that someday they could contact each other (like how the ring Shana held had a reaction back in Hope short story).

Also forgot to mention that prior to the fight there was a meeting between Bel Peol and Shana and Sentia, as representatives of Denizens from the old world, FH and the Orderists. Yuji was supposed to participate but he went to meet with Wilhelmina, who, since arrival at Xanadu, never let him near Tendokyuu and Justus. The meeting wasn't smooth but Wilhelmina, rewarding him for the work he has been doing to bridge between humans and denizens, let him see Justus for the first time which moved Yuji a lot (as Justus is the proof of how humans and denizens can coexist) Yuji is determined to continue his path, with Shana by his side.

That was me on the SnS Discord
I've been a bit lazy and also forgot to post the summary here. *dogeza*
