The literary device the author is using is verbal irony. Option C is correct.

Verbal irony is defined as  irony in which a person says or writes one thing and means another, or uses words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of the literal meaning.

In this case, for instance, the author is describig a person who is realaly big in size, but everybody call him "tiny" which means totally the opposite.

Verbal ironies are mainly the intentional products of speakers. The speakers say what is intentionally contradictory to their emotions and actions.
