MySQL's LOCALTIME(~) method returns the current date and time in the configured timezone.

Examples
String context
To return the current time in the session time zone:
SELECT LOCALTIME();
+---------------------+| LOCALTIME() |+---------------------+| 2020-04-16 16:01:50 |+---------------------+
Numeric context
To return the current time in the session time zone as a number:
SELECT LOCALTIME() + 0;
+-----------------+| LOCALTIME() + 0 |+-----------------+| 20200416160236 |+-----------------+
Fractional seconds
To specify the fractional seconds precision:
SELECT LOCALTIME(6);
+----------------------------+| LOCALTIME(6) |+----------------------------+| 2020-04-16 16:03:21.814470 |+----------------------------+
We can see that microseconds (part after the .) is returned to 6 digits precision.
