After awhile people remembered that there was an extra person in the mix.

“Ahem, can you please introduce yourself.” said King Hexton

“Victoria Ross. Head Manager of Jumbo Trinity Corporation”

Victoria handed her business card out to everyone present out of habit.

“Ms. Ross, it seems that we summoned you by mistake.” 

“How long would it take you to return to my world?” demanded Victoria.

“We will try our best to send you back to your world but please understand that this will take some time. In the meantime, we will treat you with the greatest hospitality.” The king points to a maid. “Please guide our guests to their rooms.”

Both Victoria and Vivian closed their systems and followed the maid. Along the way, Victoria could hear snickers behind her back.

“Hey? Who do you think is the hero? You don’t think it is that woman in a strange black outfit with dark eye bags and a hunched back? Or do you think it is that young lady. She stops once in awhile to admire the palace decoration."

“I bet it is the young lady. The other woman looks weak and unwell.”

You look unwell, your whole family is unwell.

After some time, the three of them stopped in front of a door. 

“This room belongs to Miss Ester.” said the maid as she opens the door.

Victoria and Vivian entered the room. Victoria could see that the room was larger than her single apartment. The maid assigned new maids for Vivian.

“Ms. Ross, I will direct you to your room. Please follow me.”

Victoria was directed to another room, but she could see that the hall was different. It might be my imagination. Victoria entered her room. There was a huge discrepancy, but as an adult Victoria didn’t care. Living on the streets made her tough. That’s another story for another time. As long as she had a roof over her head she was fine.
