The correct answer would be option B: "as an antagonist". The devil in this excerpt, is a character that could be defined as bad or evil, he wants to cause harm, therefore he could be the antagonist of the excerpt, meaning he is in opposition to the main character which would be the peasant. The peasant is not shown as a good character therefore the devil is not a foil (in literature a foil is a character that has qualities that are in contrast and highlight another character's qualities), so option A is incorrect. A dynamic character can be defined as a character that grows throughout the story, and his qualities are mentioned as they evolve in an implied form. This does not take place in the excerpt therefore, option C is also incorrect.
