Do you want to be promoted, or do you just want to do your old role without extra work?
Mentoring juniors is probably within the role scope of a senior engineer (it has been where I've worked), so it's not unreasonable to ask you to do that. What's unreasonable is asking you to do it in your free time.
Option 1 - you don't like mentoring, it's annoying, you want to go back to what you did before. Just tell your (new?) manager that you're happy to help with a few extra tasks now that Fred has gone, but you'd much rather do what you're good at, so you'd like to know what the plan is for replacing Fred's duties.
Option 2 - You're super excited to get experience of mentoring and really enjoy it, but to do it properly it's going to impact team velocity by a few points per sprint. You'd like to check with your boss that they are OK with that - just want to check priorities.
Alternatively you want more money. I'm going to guess your company is trying to save money and not fill the vacant manager role, hoping people like you will pick up the slack, at least for a while. The offer you need to make them is something along the lines of "If you pay me 20% more, I'll pick up the 20% of Fred's job that was actually needed, and that's a lot cheaper than replacing him."
Whenever you negotiate this stuff, it's very important to know your boss's (or their boss's...) motivation. Have they been told to cut headcount and salary bill? Have they gone overbudget somewhere else? Do they think the team will shrink in future anyway so fewer managers are needed? Are they waiting for some global strategy review project before presenting any new headcount requests? The more you can chat with someone who understands the department budget the better. Almost every time I've pushed pay discussions into the future, it's because I needed to clarify my own budget constraints with higher-ups before responding.
Definitely agree with VP, it depends on what you ultimately want out of your career there. You can push back on everything, but you will probably not be in that position again, raise or no. You can keep getting this experience and pivot out eventually. Just come done to your goals.
If you want to move into leadership yourself at some point you might be better served to embrace the guiding and mentoring. Of course, it all depends on exactly what's being asked of you. If it's something really annoying, perhaps you should resist. But if you're being given a chance to show your potential, it seems counterproductive to resist it.
