[@The 42nd Gecko]

As long as you mind that a standard grade weapon won't do anything more then a pinprick to the Boss monster, you can do that. But it'll barely be able to penetrate the spaces between the snake's scales, mind you.

Also, it won't save Miyu from the Ice Burst, for your information, since only Henry is immune by being close to the flute, but the protection is only big enough for the user.
