While most settlements would not suffer from any serious losses, ept for lose of sleep, while the worst will lost some guards and building, exception had been made.
As they knew they will not be able to stay in the Duchy, the elder witches had prepared to leave. But even if they have to leave their ancestral home, they will make the Duchy paid for everything they did, tenfold.
After all, saving the witches is one of their main n, but they could always have side quests.

"So, this is Furim City," a powerful B-rank witch looked down at the city from her spot on the entrance to Hexun Cavern. She looked apathetic, though that was her expression outside. Inside, she wanted to destroy the ce that torment a fellow alchemist enthusiast for just the suspicions of being a witch.
"The rm should not be sounded," she eximed, looking at the dead guards down below, killed by her. While she was an alchemist first and foremost, that does not mean she could not be a fighter, as she need to if she wanted to survive in the Duchy.
"Let the massacred begin," she said in a passive tone, ready for the ughter that would happen inside the city.

Inside the Hexun Cavern, the monsters under Ryker, Lamia, Arachne, and Golem, had made their preparation, though it is mostly the first two as thest onecked intelligence needed for it.
They had gathered arge amount of monsters, from their races and not, and prepared to unleash them to the unprepared City. While they could not grab the more powerful in the deeper caverns, the one they have is more than enough to destroy the City, as there are only 20 out of 38 B-ranks fighters left, the rest having been captured or killed by the Lamia and Arachne.
While the number of B-rank adventurers still a lot more than what Alros'' side possess, they have the advantage in surprise, not to mention, in war, there is no such thing as ying fair.

The monsters soon exited the cavern, before silently arranged themselves for an assault to the City. Normally, suchrge wave of monsters would make a ruckus but the two leaders ensure none of the monsters would dare to do such thing.
With that said, even if there is no sound, the numerous outposts between the City and Danger Zone would have seen them, but they are already silenced by the witches and goblins.
When all monsters exited the cavern, they head towards the nearest human settlements. From simple stride, they increased their pace with the two queens no longer able to rein them any longer.
Their howling and growling can be heard, but none of the guards on the walls sound any rm, having met the same fate as the guards at the outpost

"What that sound?" the mayor of the town eximed, annoyed by it. He head towards his balcony, wondering what caused it when what he see cause the man to freeze in terror.
A monster stampede had urred just outside his city. Realizing the dire situation he was in, the mayor was about to call the guard and sounded the rm when his heart starting to give out.
As his vision darkened, he could see a beautiful woman that is not his wife walking towards him.
-x-
"What is that sound? Don''t they see someone is trying to sleep?"
"Hish, they should learn to be quiet,"
"Be quiet you damned assholes!"
As the rms are not sounded, not to mention the monsters of Hexun Cavern rarely left their home, the townspeople did not notice the attack of the monsters until it is toote.

While the townspeople grumbled in their beds, some of the daytime guards had decided to inspect what happened. To their horror, arge wave of monsters are heading towards their city.
"Damn! Where are the night guards!?"
"Over there sir, sle- no, they are dead sir, all of them,"
"What?! Then sound the rm! The monsters are getting close to the walls!"
While the guards frantically sound the rm, the witches responsible for the death of the guards did not make any move. After all, it is already toote for the townspeople.
-x-
"Wait, is that the rm?"
"One, two, wait three bells ringing! Isn''t that the sign of arge monster wave?!"
"Let''s get out of here before the monsters arrive!" the townspeople, once grumbling about theck of sleep, soon exit their houses with what they currently wore as well whatever weapons they can get their hands on.
However, to their horrors, they soon learned that the city was surrounded.
"What did the guards do?! Sleep on the job!"
"Damn! I should have left weeks ago!"
"Let''s hide! There is no where to run!"
Seeing the chaos, the leading witch merely smiled, which only urred rarely as her face always set to being nk and unemotional. The only exception was during her interaction with Mina, and being ravaged by their demon master, or his clones.
She touched her ass, a blush on her face at the memory of being pounded from both holes, remembering how she moaned like a slut.
She shook her head, pushing the perverse thought for now as she had better things to do, mainly assisting in the destruction of the city.
Though, she do wish to make it known to them, so they will learn in the end, this is all their fault.

"Hello everyone," a monotone voice was heard from above, the entire city poption looking upward. To their horror, a witch on top of her staff was looking down on them.
"I would like to say, what happened here, is your fault. You have abused and tormented many of my sisters, and for that, all of you will pay for your crime," the witch said before looking at the townspeople in disgust.
"Pray for whichever gods you worship, as the monsters will destroy the gates, and everything inside the city in 5 minutes.
As she watched the people panic, she relished in their fear, remembering her own during an attack to her vige, done by the Witch Hunters and soldiers of the Duchy.
