"King hereafter." Which means he will become king at some later time.
The witches never said "Macbeth, Macbeth, Macbeth". In Act 4, Scene 1, both the First Apparition and the Second Apparition begin their prophecies by calling out, "Macbeth! Macbeth! Macbeth!" Macbeth responds to the First Apparition by thanking it for warning him against the Thane of Fife (Macduff). Macbeth responds to the Second Apparition with: "Had I three ears, I'd hear thee."
In an apparition, the three witches show Macbeth a bloody child that is meant to symbolize the just-born Macduff.
The apparition of the bloody child represents Macduff, who was born by Caesarean section and is the only one who can defeat Macbeth. The witches are warning Macbeth of Macduff's threat to his reign, as he is the one destined to challenge and overthrow Macbeth.
Macbeth says that the first apparition warns him to beware Macduff, the second apparition tells him to fear no man born of a woman, and the third apparition tells him he will not be defeated until Birnam Wood comes to Dunsinane Hill.
The prophecy is that Macbeth will become the Thane of Cawdor and then the King of Scotland. But Banquo's son, Fleance will become the next king after Macbeth. Banquo and Macbeth think the prophecy is ridiculous until Macbeth become Thane of Cawdor because the last Thane of Cawdor was tratior as he sided with the Norwegian Vikings during battle. The next Thane of Cawdor will be the ultamite tratior as he will kill the king to become King.
He will not be defeated until the Birnam wood marches to his castle.
A question with some incoherence. What apparition? The ghost scenes in Macbeth were referred to in the script as apparitions- the Dagger of the Mind sequence ( a good reference, out of context, to drug abuse! Apparition ususally sounds clasier than (Ghost) and is applied to religious visions or sightings such as those of the Blessed Virgin Mary at, for example, Fatima. Be sure of your target before opening up! There were, as I recall three apparitions or ghost sequences in Macbeth- Four Ghosts in ( A Christmas Carol) and One is not sure of the total number of apparitions at the Fatima site in l9l7.
The witches showed Macbeth three apparitions: an armed head, a bloody child, and a child with a crown on his head. The first apparition warned Macbeth of Macduff, the second assured him of his invincibility until Birnam Wood moved to Dunsinane, and the third promised that he would not be defeated until Great Birnam Wood came to high Dunsinane Hill. Macbeth reacted by feeling emboldened and reassured by the prophecies.
In the Shakespearean play 'Macbeth', the three witches filled the cauldron with ingredients. The fixings were meant to conjure up apparitions to give Macbeth [d. August 15, 1057] a false sense of security. Macbeth thereby was warned to beware of Macduff, the movement of Birnam Wood to Dunsinane Castle, and no man born of woman. Two out of three seemed impossibilities to him. He never sought practical meanings for these outlandish warnings other than to have Macduff's entire family and household killed. From the cauldron, a fourth apparition was conjured. That apparition confirmed Macbeth's fear that Banquo's family line indeed would take over the throne of Scotland. It led him to ever more bloodied, oppressive, repressive, suppressive rule against the arising of any opposition.

It was dark, and the shadows made if difficult to discern all the objects in the rooom. It appeared to three of them that there was an apparition in the room with them.
Oh, dude, that's an easy one. The bloody man in 'Macbeth' is, like, literally called the "Bloody Sergeant." He's the one who tells King Duncan about Macbeth's victory in battle against the traitorous Macdonwald. So, yeah, he's not just bloody in name, he's literally covered in blood from the battlefield.
