Sam is getting ready to go to the thunder god temple. There is still two weeks of time for that.
But he was shocked by something else. There is a notice from the Imperial capital. The thunder god temple has taken the candidates for the Palace of Inheritance earlier and they particularly gave instructions to Arc.
Sam is not allowed to go to the thunder god temple.
He was honestly surprised; in fact, he thought the thunder god temple very much wanted him to visit so that they can just deal with him for once and for all.
As he thought, suddenly something flashed in his mind and that is the protection of Avatar. Last time in the thunder god temple territory, Avatar Sanchez mentioned that no one in the thunder god temple shall harm the candidates within their vicinities.
Maybe, he felt that it is the same situation. But he wasn't extremely disappointed with the thunder god temple's ban, because he can go through another place. The Beast faction.
