Chapter 53, The Arrow is on the String_1

"Hudson, you're one lucky bastard. As a Great Knight, I haven't been able to get a Magic Beast as a mount, but you've managed to nab an Earth Bear for yourself."

Not because he was unable to find a Magical Beast, but the real issue was that not all Magical Beasts were suitable to be mounts. Their size, combat power, and tameness were all things he had to consider.

Many lower-level Magical Beasts were even less useful than War Horses. The War Horses that nobles were using now were not ordinary wild War Horses; they were bred with Magic Beasts.

Whether in sudden power or endurance, they were much improved. It was said that the best among them could even match up to a Magical Beast.

Hudson said with false humility.
