^ It may also be a matter of different things mixing up. In the average fantasy fiction and games.
The "protagonist" (the character the story/game focuses on)
the "hero" (the one saving the day from disaster)
the "warrior" (or any other game class, related only to fighting style)
all together often without distinction.

Mangas (manwa, manhua, etc) also have this thing of calling the fighting class, often the one of the warrior, as hero. As if "hero" was just one more fighting skill.
That also owes something to fantasy games.
