Seimei starts and looks for the source of the voice. Initially, he's relieved to see a fellow human(-ish) being. But that relief lasts only a half-second at most before his healthy (for a mage) paranoia sets in. Yes, this being looks human, but there are a large number of creatures that can easily look human until they get close enough to catch you and eat you. And in this environment, Seimei's not sure that he can trust his magical senses, either.
"I suppose that is sound advice, but I am stubborn, and have a habit of banging my head repeatedly on walls until either they fall down or I do," Seimei says. His body language and tone of voice are perfectly calm, but inside he's trying to decide between fight, flight, or none of the above.
