It's almost impossible for Eiji to finish the question. It hurts too much to talk, and everything in him is telling him to just put his strength into getting up and getting out of there. But he knows he can't. He doesn't have any strength left.
"You died. For me."
And that's what's been at the heart of this for him. Because there's no way he's worth someone sacrificing that much--for Ankh to sacrifice the very life he'd wanted validated. Why let Eiji break his Medal? And why risk getting hurt or killed or even controlled himself just to stop Eiji from very likely dying to the phantom?
