Seiya - Salamanders

“Heh-heh-heh. You all have absolutely no idea where I am right now, do ya? …Ow, ow, ow! That’s hot!”

The air suddenly begins to smoke, and Slauri appears! His robe is on fire with smoke rising from his chest!

“What the…?! Why are you on fire?!”

I scream out in astonishment, but I almost immediately realize why…because a fiery salamander jumps out of his chest pocket, then climbs up Seiya’s leg and sits on his shoulder.

“It’s a fire salamander I made using fire magic. I had it slip itself into Slauri’s breast pocket the moment we met.”

“Wh-why did you do that?”

“I didn’t want him to say, ‘On second thought, I’m not teaching you anything,’ before fading into obscurity.”
