He told Pyrrha that the tale was around when he was a boy. Obviously, it could have been around for much much longer... Ozpin: Would you believe me if I told you that one's been around since I was a boy?

Pyrrha: (laughing) You're not that old, Professor.

What Ozpin was probably thinking: Hahaha... you don't even know.

What Ozpin said though makes no sense.

Saying that a story has been around since you were a child doesn't imply that you are old but the story is.

If I said that the story of Beowulf has been around since I was a boy means that it's not a new story.

If I said the story of Beowulf wasn't around when I was a boy implies that I'm older than the story.
