He can't just undo all the damage with a flourish right now, so he replaces each item on the table to assess any small damages, find and gather broken pieces. Thankfully it is nothing immediately valuable.
Whatever his nonchalance in the face of their visitor, his concern is solely on taking care of the mess left behind once the soldier returns.
