Admit? Why would he need to admit anything?

If he was after the book I would expect him to either just grab it, or if his interest is in destroying it, then to just vaporize it with a single breath attack. Both things are easy and quick for to the point of triviality for him to do, but he didn't even seem to pay any attention to the book or Mard, who were both standing right out in the open.

That aside, I seriously doubt that Acnologia gives a milli-second's consideration about what others might think of him.
