That City.

...

...

"What?" the Minister for Magic murmured upon seeing what was happening in the city through the magical communication mirror.

"Listen, Madam Minister... there's a group of strange things walking through the city and killing—not just werewolves, but also Dark wizards and Death Eaters."

"What do you mean? I'm not understanding," she murmured.

"The same creatures. Creatures that attacked the Nott family and, clearly, the Norton family!" he said, while the minister grew even more surprised by the information.

"What's going on, Minister?" the British Prime Minister overheard part of the conversation and immediately wanted to know exactly what was happening, after the failed attempt to stop that thing approaching the city from the forest.

All they had been ordered to do, while wizards and military forces tried to stop it, was—whatever that thing was—it passed through everyone with ease and entered the city, without them being able to do anything else.

After that, they didn't know exactly what it was, nor what it was doing there, they only received warnings while helicopters continued to watch the city from afar.

"Something has been appearing frequently over the last year in the wizarding world... someone has been killing over a hundred wizards in various events," she began.

"What does that have to do with this? You're talking about a murderer? Is it that murderer who showed up there? Does he also work for your dark wizard?" the Prime Minister asked.

Having some information about it, but not much, while the wizards and the Ministry of Magic issued reports on the explosions in the middle of London, explaining exactly what had happened to the Muggle government and trying to calm the population—making up excuses like fires, exploding generators, and others—when the wizards simply couldn't erase the memory of Muggles who were further away from the magical events.

"This person doesn't work for the Dark Lord... You-Know-Who. Quite the opposite," she murmured, pressing her lips together, not knowing how to react to it.

After all, on one hand, he was a criminal and murderer, even considered a terrorist in the magical world after all the chaos he caused. But at the same time, he had only hunted dark wizards, not to mention that Dumbledore's disappearance was also a direct result of that mysterious wizard.

Despite being quite bloodthirsty and frightening to most people, he still somehow only hunted those related to You-Know-Who. And the report her men were passing along indicated that the same shadows reported in the attacks on the families were now hunting werewolves and dark witches, leaving the Aurors behind, since she had not received any report of casualties caused by these creatures.

"We even considered him a second Dark Lord... like You-Know-Who... due to the danger he presents. His powers have only now started to be revealed. Somehow, he has dark soldiers, events of family destruction, attacks on others... using these things along with strange magic and even attacks throughout the wizarding world. We don't know exactly what we're dealing with, but they are certainly enemies of each other..." she said, referring also to the recent extermination of the giant spiders in the Forbidden Forest after the Acromantulas attacked a student from a Muggle-born family.

Since, right after that, the Nott family was attacked, it was no surprise to associate them with the events in the Forbidden Forest—considering the shadow soldiers that the centaurs had seen along with the attack that exterminated the spiders that night.
