Seich's words made sense. And although Toz wanted to explore the tunnel since he could tell that it was related to the instability in the mana, he knew that the mission should take priority. So Toz didn't say anything.

Braxton found Seich's words just as reasonable as the others. He quickly covered the hole and turned away.
"Seich, do you know how much time we have?"
"No."
"Neither do I. So I don't think we should indulge in time-wasting activities. Let's just head toward the Fortress and complete the mission."
Braxton's behavior seemed to be a little off. But it could be chalked up to stress and the fact that he, the earth mage in charge of leading them, hadn't sensed the tunnel. He had probably been a little affected by having his pride or self-confidence blown to bits.
