When the failure of a plan has now become visible to everyone, there was no longer a way to keep it hidden.
Almost everyone in the small town was discussing about this matter.
How should one interpret the current situation? What does it mean for the people involved?

But these knights failed, implying that at this moment, he should be feeling disheartened or angry.
