It is because you set the time only once. you need some sort of method to do it every second, for example with an interval function in your case, something like this

setInterval(()=>{
  let actuel = new Date().toLocaleString();
  temps.innerHTML = actuel;
}, 1000)

setInterval(()=>{
  let actuel = new Date().toLocaleString();
  temps.innerHTML = actuel;
}, 1000)

and if you want to clean up your code a bit https://codepen.io/MarkBoots/pen/oNVWZEe

side note, if u do call setInterval or setTimeout it's a good practice to also clear it using clearInterval or clearTimeout, so the dedicated section of the browser for running these functions know that it no longer has to worry about those
