奇異なれど熱意ありし聖職者曰く、『獅子心王には三人の娘あり。傲慢、強欲、邪淫なり。遠ざけねば王に待つは破滅のみ』。獅子心王はそれを受け、「傲慢は騎士団に、強欲は修道会に、邪淫は教会に嫁がせる」と返したと言われている。

その事について『セイバー霊基の』獅子心王は言う。
「別に、自分の覇道に邪魔だからと娘を捨てるという意
　味でも、騎士団や教会を堕落させるという意味でもな
　いぞ？」

「傲慢と忠節、強欲と慈愛、邪淫と純潔……全部、人間
　の在り方だ。罪も美徳も受け入れて身内にした方が、
　退屈しない一族になりそうだろ？」

「まあ……勝手に嫁ぎ先を決めるのはマスターの倫理観
　には合わないかもしれないが……。ふむ、確かに激し
　い衝突の末に罪と美徳が惹かれ合うのも面白そうだ！
　よし！　なぎこさんかシェイクスピア先生に吟じても
　らおう！」

三頭の獅子と、大罪の名を冠する娘達。

そのいずれもが、奇異にして苛烈なる王の一欠片。

A strange yet fervently devout clergyman declared, "Richard the Lionheart has three daughters: Pride, Greed, and Lust. Only ruin awaits if he does not cast them away." Richard the Lionheart is said to have responded, "Let Pride marry the Knights Templar, Greed the Monastic Orders, and Lust the Church."

When asked about this, the Richard the Lionheart with the Saber Spirit Origin replied, "It doesn't mean he discarded his daughters because they hindered his path to dominance, nor did he intend to corrupt the knights or the church."

"Pride and loyalty, greed and compassion, lust and purity are all aspects of human life. Accepting both sin and virtue into the family seems like it would make for a more interesting lineage, don't you think?"

"Well, arbitrarily deciding marriage might not fit with Master's ethics, but then again, sin and virtue being drawn to each other after a fierce conflict sounds intriguing! Okay! Let's have Nagiko or Shakespeare compose a poem!"

Three lions and daughters bearing the names of deadly sins. Each is a fragment of the strange, fierce king.
