A Correct answer
Explanation

The word antagonist means a person who competes with another, especially the protagonist or main character in a story. The opposite of antagonist is, then, the main character or protagonist. Because a hero is the main male character of a story and, generally, a person celebrated for bravery, this is a correct option.
