Hanataka was covered in mud from head to toe and suffered some injuries as well. It was incredibly miraculous that he even managed to escape with his life, so he couldn't care less about his appearance. The disciples, however, nearly fainted from shock when they saw the state Hanataka was in.
After all, Hanataka was the president of Naminoue Gokokuji Shrine, so he was a highly respected individual as well. Even so, he looked no different from a beggar on the streets in that disheveled look. Jacob called out to the disciples standing in the courtyard, "This old man here is the deity you guys worship. Now, allow me to show you all what he really is!"
The disciples simply stared at him in shock and disbelief. They couldn't believe that the deity they had been worshipping all this while turned out to be a skinny, elderly man.
