On hearing Nakime's cry, Amenowakahiko's vassal, Amenosagume, urged him to kill the bird, at which Amenowakahiko took the bow Amakagonoyumi and the arrow Amenohabaya, which he had received from Takamimusubi on leaving for Ashihara no Nakatsukuni, and shot the pheasant.
すると、その声を聴いたアメノサグメが、不吉な鳥だから射殺すようにとアメノワカヒコに進め、アメノワカヒコは遣された時にタカミムスビから与えられた弓矢（天羽々矢と天鹿児弓）で雉を射抜いた。
