This excerpt from The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien describes the Masters reaction:

But the Master was not sorry at all to let them go. They were expensive to keep, and their arrival had turned things into a long holiday in which business was at a standstill. "Let them go and bother Smaug, and see how he welcomes them!" he thought. "Certainly, O Thorin Thrain's son Thror's son!" was what he said. "You must claim your own. The hour is at hand, spoken of old. What help we can offer shall be yours, and we trust to your gratitude when your kingdom is regained."'

What is the masters reaction when Thorin announces his departure?

In "The Hobbit," the Master is surprised and shocked for he didn't think they would have approached Smaug. He thinks Thorin is a fraud for being a descendant. He is actually relieved when Thorin and the dwarves depart. He says it was expensive to keep them, and their presence made it seem too much like a holiday for any work to be done.
