They were in a village filled with terrified civilians that were trying to flee. Even if Nora and Ren still felt some fear, it woul've been overshadowed by everyone else's sheer terror. It's like how the Grimm completely ignored Blake and Weiss in the beginning of Battle of Beacon in the fairgrounds. Their sadness and everything else was overshadowed by the civilians' terror, and the Grimm were chasing civilians while running right past Blake and Weiss.
