The child

**"Are you really able to stop time?"** the boy asked, his tone calm, almost skeptical.

"_Yes, yes indeed,_" the man replied, his voice carrying a hint of amusement.

**"Prove it."**

"_Alright,_" the man said nonchalantly, with a small shrug. "_Their time is stopped._"

The boy glanced around, unimpressed. **"I'm still able to move,"** he pointed out coolly.

"_Well, I know,_" the man responded, his tone teasing. "_But if I truly stopped time, how would you even know? You wouldn’t be aware now, would you?_"

The boy considered this for a moment before responding, **"True. But surely you can stop it without freezing me as well."**

"_Perhaps,_" the man said with a thoughtful expression, exaggerating his movements slightly as seamless as a carless person.

**"The boy gave him a flat stare. 'You look ridiculous,' he said, his tone flat and indifferent."**

The man chuckled lightly. "_Hahaha, I'm in an unusually good mood. truly a Surprise"

**"I suppose,"** the boy replied evenly. **"Still, that's not exactly how I expected it to work. Why are you telling me any of this anyways?"**

"_Because,_" the man said, his smile widening, "_you were the one who asked, ‘Are you really able to stop time?’ And besides, I was bored, it couldn't hurt to do something fun."

The boy gave a faint nod. **"Fair enough."**

After backing up about 15 meters, the man called out, “Hey, kid.”

“Yeah?”

“what's the time.”

“... It’s 3:30 PM.”

The boy watched as the man backed away slowly, his boots scuffing against the cracked pavement. Walking backward, the man's cloak hood slipped off, and with each step, the air seemed to grow heavier.

Then, as he came to a stop about fifteen meters away, he raised his right arm, blocking most of his face. and as the boy caught a glimpse of his face, his eye color shifted  to something he could only call impossible, a strange mix of gold and black. It was a color the boy couldn't quite describe. the hue that suffocated the area, The wind bent around the man, swirling at his feet going up and around him as if it was bending its rule to follow his. Behind him, a large, faintly glowing outline of a clock began to take shape in the air, as though he were drawing it into existence. The time on the clock read 3:30 PM exactly what he had read it as when the man asked.

"what do you think?" time froze before the boy even got to answer. 

the man walks in fronts of the boy and starts to move the boys right arm to point to him as he mumbles "it would be so much easier if I didn't to put so much effort into moving your hand" he sighs as he unfreezes 'time'.

A subtle smile tugged at the corner of the man’s lips, as if he found amusement in the unfolding scene, his eye gleaming with an unsettling mix of confidence.

the boy screams "ahhhhh! what the fuck".

the man looks at the boy and askes "what happened?"

The boy looked at the man, eyes wide. "um.. there was this clock, and suddenly you were in the air. Then,  you kinda teleported in front of me, and my hand was pointing at you. 

"kinda weird for you to be so close to me if i do say so myself."

The man chuckled softly. 

"so?," the boy replied, still trying to process everything.

the man looks at him as he says "did you check the time?"

its 2:30 now says the boy.

the boy follows up with his statement "oh wow so you brought us back in time?" 

"Not really," says the man.

"A little anticlimactic, don’t you think?" he adds, raising an eyebrow and looking of to the side, when he notices that its only him and the boy.

"wait a minute am i dreaming" he says inside his mind

"i dono what to say about  want happened" the boy eventually says.

“Hey, whats your name” says the man

The boy replies “my names Aelar, kinda late to be giving introductions no?”

“Its never too late" replies the man.

“Well whats your name then?” Says Aelar 

“You may address me as -fronzen paradox.”

Aelar farantaicly nods his head from right to left blunting out "dont say that shit you sound stupid"

the man laughs out loud, "my name is Chōetsuteki but you can call me Chōetsu for short"

"Alright" replies Aelar

Psst, psst, psst!

the teacher follows up with"just because your new doesnt mean you get it easy."

Yes ma’am replies Kōmyō
