Detailed explanation-1: -What is probably the real reason why Macbeth killed the guards? He wanted to prevent them from telling an alibi about the previous night. Why do Malcolm and Donalbain leave Scotland? They believe they are not safe in Scotland.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: Macbeth claims that he found the men covered in King Duncan’s blood. Overwrought with grief and guided by a desire to avenge his king, Macbeth killed them.
Detailed explanation-3: -What happens to the guards in Macbeth Act 2 Scene 3? Macbeth kills the guards in Act 2, Scene 3. Although he tells the men that he killed them because they had killed Duncan, in reality, he kills them to eliminate any guilt that might fall on him.
Detailed explanation-4: -Why does Macbeth kill Banquo? Macbeth kills Banquo because he sees Banquo as another threat to the throne. In the Witches’ original prophecy, they proclaim that Macbeth will be king but that Banquo’s son and descendants will be the future kings, while Banquo will never be king himself.
Detailed explanation-5: -Macbeth adds that they will cover the guards with blood. He says he doesn’t think about them which is a lie. Then, Macbeth tells Banquo they can discuss the witches prophecies in more detail later. He is about to kill Duncan, so Macbeth is haunted by the treacherous murder he is about to perform.
