While someone put a copyright symbol on an idea and also it's also purjury to write a sequal, does not mean you can't write a sequal. You just can't formally publish it. You may post it on a fanfic site and still be okay (So long as you say something to the extent "Disclaimer: I do not own... and then what ever the sequal is to).

It could be considered copyright infringement if the portion of the book based on someone else's idea is substantial and is protected by copyright. It's important to seek permission or ensure that the idea is in the public domain to avoid legal issues.
