One should confront what is seen before them and then decide what effort to make towards the problem.
At this moment, the Alchemist certainly doesn't want to face what is before him, and he casually decides to give up.
Continuing to make an effort based on his thoughts now feels like a very strenuous outcome for him.
It's already apparent in his understanding of what he sees, and thus, there is no need for more careful considerations or worries.
What more explanations about the problem does he need to make?
Thus, when facing all that he had seen before,
His thoughts no longer seem proper or suitable for action on the problem.
A general understanding and more confidence in facing the current issues breed guesses about the problem in his heart.
This is precisely the kind of clear, appropriate awareness he feels he possesses.
