    If I were you, I will duplicate the same table and called it "Requirement". In the Requirement Table, filter row and only show rows with requirements, and remove duplicate, so that table will be something like

    Requirement/ epic link/

    s3 / s15

    s4 / s15

    s101 / s20

    and then you just build relationship and pot everything into one "Matrix" visual, and filter Defect only.

    By the way, your example is shoiwng unclear logic, defect s205 is referring to epic link s15, but epic link s15 is referring to requirement s3,s4 and s101.

    (Anyway, the easiest method seesm to be duplicate the table, and clean it up, remove duplicate, remove irrelevant, and make it a Dimension table for you to feed data back into the fact table)
