"I am the bringer of good news."

"I am the bringer of good news." You speak calmly.

The leader looks confused at you.
"What are the news?"

"The news are that your employer has decided to stop her current profit model and has decided to start a new one." You speak calmly to the leader and his soldiers.

"She has decided to stop her commerce in Amazon prostitution and **** of royalty. Because of this you and your men's services are no longer required and you are free to go and take a well deserved holiday. As a golden parachute you can take with you any valuables you can carry on your way out."

The leader seems to consider his options.
"Is the witch dead?" He asks cautiously.

"Not yet, but it is a matter of time. Kinda inevitable you know... Like she just jumped of a church tower but hasn't hit the floor yet."

"Right now I'm still talking to you. But once we are done here I am going to be on her way and the inevitable thing is going to happen, she will hit the floor."

The soldiers look cautiously at you and chairs get moved backwards as they stand up and prepare to fight you, waiting for a command of their leader to charge at you with everything they have.

The leader is thinking, analyzing, considering his options. Judging how likely it is that you can kill him and his men, judging if you could fight the witch and defeat her. He didn't just became a leader by being a skilled warrior, he became a leader by thinking things through. And besides that he is still a merc working for the highest bidder, not someone with loyalty to the witch or willing to fight a losing battle for her. After a while he realizes he does not want to risk a fight with you and suspects you might have a decent change to defeat the witch. At least decent enough that he is willing to face her wrath by deserting on her.

"Then I guess me and my boys are going to be on our way out." He speaks calmly and gestures his soldiers to follow him.

You step out of the way as they move through the door and start to collect their golden parachute.

You cannot help but feel a sense of satisfaction, you just managed to take out most of her soldiers without even drawing your sword.
