Noah and the Demons had covered their faces only as a form of protection against eventual recording devices hidden inside the Balvan mansion.

That measure was necessary in case something went wrong in the attack, and the Elbas family intervened to blame the Hive. There would be no proof without images, and the words of a medium-size noble family couldn't match those of an organization backed by a rank 6 existence.
